Problem with the heated windows in Mercedes GLC Class Diesel 2016: experience and solutions wanted

Hi, I'm not the biggest car expert either, but I have some experience with similar problems. I once had a similar problem with my 2014 Mercedes GLE Diesel. It turned out that the windshield heating element was defective. In my case, I took the car to the garage, where they diagnosed it and replaced the heating element. In total, it cost me about 585 euros. Can you perhaps tell us a bit more about your car, such as mileage and whether you've had any repairs done recently? This could help to better understand the problem and go into more detail. Greetings

Hi, thanks for your reply and the tip! My GLC has now covered 8,7562 km and so far I haven't had to do any major repairs. Nothing conspicuous was found at the last service. I'll definitely take your advice to the garage. Let's see what they have to say! Thanks again and have a nice day!

Hi, I'm glad to hear that you haven't had to do any major repairs yet! With the mileage, however, it sounds plausible that the windshield heating element could also be due for repair on your GLC. This was the case with my GLE after around 80,000 KM. Tell your garage about my experience, it might help them with the diagnosis. Hopefully it can be fixed without too much effort, as the 585 euros was quite a lot of money. Good luck and let us know what the diagnosis reveals! Best regards.
