last night I went out to try the Torque App on my C230k - easy I thought, plug in the Bluetooth adapter and connect up just like I do with my V220 :)
Only one problem, I can't find the socket under the dash :confused:
I thought that maybe it was hiding so off the under dash panels came and still no luck - so i searched some more and ............. nope, still can't find it :surrender:
it's a UK spec car but it should still be under there some where or am I missing something? I've got the round Star connector under the bonnet but it seems that I have no OBD connector under the dash.
Anyone have any Ideas where it might be hiding?

If I'm correct you will need to get the adapter from 38 pin Mercedes to obd2 female connector. Then it should work

I'm currently on Ebay looking for one - I was confused as I thought all of the post facelift cars had the under dash OBD plug - it's a 1999 model.

I got the adapter and the Torque App works ok - mine is a 1999 model so don't know about earlier versions.
I masnaged to clear an old gerabox fault and have checked out the live data side and it seems to work ok as well.
