5 Hidden Mercedes functions, tricks & features - Vol 1

Its not over engineering its actually under if you will because in the older modles that window lock switch atually just cut the power the back switches entirety and was just a bridge for power to flow from the front to the back switches. Was the same as if you shut the light off in your houae in a room

I found the gas cap holder last night. Cool

Thank you!

Mercedes never ceases to amaze me, they are always so far ahead of other cars, some features by 10 or 20 years. I bought a 1997 C-280 back in 2011 but it did not have a manual so I am always amazed when I find something new. Like the headlight switch, one day I was waiting on my wife as she shopped and pulled on it, it has 2 levels, not only can you turn it for the parking or headlights but if you pull it out another set of lights come on, it shows the side of the road as you drive along with normal headlights, if you pull it out all the way the tail lights stay on, not sure what this is for but there has to be a good reason.
I have always been a fan of German car and technology, it took America and Japan decades to catch up with not locking your keys in your car, it's meaningless now a days with keyless entries but back in the 60's-90's many people have locked their keys in their cars, nott on German cars, you needed the key to lock the driver door, the other doors would stay locked if you clicked the button down but not the drivers door. Also, how many of us back in the day have left our headlights on during rainy days? German cars the headlights would go out so you don't come back to a dead battery. again, now a days they have beepers and bells. I always wondered why American cars did not have a safety so you could not lock your keys in your car, they had a deal with the locksmith companies. My old 1964 Benz had this feature but my 1992 Caddy did not.. Way too many things to list, but these were 2 small features other car companies could have used.

Hi
Do you know any way that you can get Apple CarPlay on a W204 C250 cdi Command System?

thanks for this little compilation of wizardry :)

How to change set height cls2005?

thank you very helpful

Those duel visors should be a safety feature on every car.

Is there a way to increase the volume for navigation instructions? As it is currently set, my wife and I cannot hear the voice clearly. Adjusting the radio volume does not help. The model is a GLC 43, 2017. Thank you!

I have a MB B200 auto turbo year 2011. I would like to have the park assist switched off as a default setting because I do not want to hear beep beep every time the car comes close to something (or a pedestrian walks past). In the event that I want the park assist function, then I can push a button. The existing button to mute the car park assist sensors is by default switched on - I want to have the opposite - by default the park alarm sensors are switched off and on the odd occasion I want the park sensors to help me park, then I can push the button. Is this modification possible?

fuel cap holder is nothing special, my toyota carina e from 96 has it.

I found many hidden issues with my Mercedes too. It is 4 years old, it refuses to start when the engine is warm and there is absolutely no error code.

my MB GL 420 Tail Gate failing to lock only bounces . ..plz advise (no manual )

The key FOB trick for unlock is great. On my 2007 Mercedes ML-350, first push for unlock is the drivers door, and a second push unlocks the rest of the doors. I'll have to see if there is a gas cap bracket on mine as well - that was pretty cool too!

KH - I thought the quality of the whole production of your vid even greater than the value of these great tips - well done!

On Vol 2 Please include s500 hidden functions & tips too... Thanks!

I had an R129 for 16 years (1992 - 500SL) which had a cool feature engineered into the rear view mirror.
It was adjustable by a control switch in centre console and an electric motor moving the mirror.
Always had to tell any friend driving it not to manually adjust the rear view mirror.
Cool part is with the three seat memory switch, the rear view mirror move into exactly where you set it together with the seat, seat belt height and steering wheel setup.
Within a few years that feature has been deleted.

Thanks for sharing. More please😊

nice

Look in a car manual before using, all written "black on white" :) years ago. Nothing new.

Driving over 20 yrs MB didn't know those
