just got my a250e amg line and these tips are really helpful
Thank you! Glad you enjoy them! 🤓
Hey Nick
There is this trick that you might not know. In one of your video, you talked about the keyless option, where you can just tap on the rectangular little thingy on the door handle to close the doors. Here’s my little trick, you don’t actually need to touch the rectangular thing, it works on the whole handle! That’s actually pretty neat, so when you park and go out of the park, I just fist bump the handle and voilà. It’s a lot easier than looking for the rectangular thingy and tap it with your finger.
Haha a fist bump! Yes some models I’ve noticed are a little more sensitive (in a good way) than others so you can use it all over the handle 👍🏼
That auto speed limit button / finally explained 🎉
There was a Subscribe ;) icon in the Favourites in the MBUX, nice easter egg Nick 😁
sssshhh! haha 👀
Sport Mode+ is the best time saving tip.
Haha 😜
🚗 💨
Hi Nick, your videos are very good 👍 i was wondering if you can advise on the MB infotainment system. I find the icons are very small, does MB have a feature to make the icons bigger as they are very small/tiny to read especially on the right hand side of the screen.’
Thank you! 👍🏼 glad you enjoy them!
No sadly not seen a magnification feature on any car actually, I cover a few brands but certainly not seen anything on Mercedes before.
Hey Nick ,
Just suggestion for some topics :
1. Enable wireless apple car play in NTG 6 and prior by using some external device
2. Tip on maintenance topics (this could be detail series ) ?
3. Information about Service A and Service B (mandatory changes )
Hey Pankaj, yes absolutely working on number one at the moment 🤓
Number two is a good idea
For servicing it’s different for every model so is quite tricky! You can check individual servicing etc on www.mymercedesservice.co.uk
The RESUME button thing was unknown to me!
Sadly my E Class doesn’t read the speed limit signs, and neither do I so I save time by going slightly faster 🤪 Really though, love your videos man, I’ve learned so much from them! Thank you for all the time you spend making them.
Awh thank you! Glad you enjoy them! 🙏
Always open to ideas for future videos!
Got some really exciting stuff lined up for the next couple of weeks!
Great Presentation, I have one question regarding Navigation, can the speed be shown on the Navigation Map?
No sadly not, but…
If you use / or have Apple CarPlay 3rd party apps can. I know an app called Waze can do it definitely!
Wireless carplay on Command plss, a lot of us have the W205FL especially how it was one of mercedes most sold cars would be great to get a vid on that👍🏽👍🏽
Added to the list of potential future videos! Thanks for the suggestion! 😇
Very helpful and nicely put together as always, Nick!
Is there a way to use automatic traffic sign recognition for the speed limit, not only for the cruise control?
Thanks in advance for the response
Thank you! No sadly it’s only for the cruise control on cars with the Driving Assistance Package. But you on modern Mercedes press RES twice which will copy the speed sign to your Limiter 🤓
@@npoleary Great, thanks! Haven't seen this anywhere, you rock 😊
Haha thanks! 🙏 😇
Thank you for the tips and tricks, been using them to get the most out of my MBUX for a while now 🎉
One question, is there a way to change the profile before I get in the car or, at least change the seat to my setting? The wife is somewhat shorter the me bless her 😊
No worries! I’ll keep them coming!
Not that I’ve seen, you just tap on your name on the screen if you’ve got multiple profiles 🤓
Hi Nick. New to CLA coupe. Loving it. Learning alot from the vids. I wanted to know if I can start the car remotely from Mercedes Me app? If so how, please?
Ah nice!
Sadly it’s not available everywhere round the world (I’ve not seen it before) and certainly not available in the UK.
I believe it’s allowed in America in certain states but not here in the UK. Although I should add plug-in hybrids and All-Electric cars have Pre-Entry Climate Control which can help!
Thank you. I was asking for that particular reason to get the car warm and ready and obviously with no entry to anyone.
So mercedes don't have the option except in electric cars or versions.
No sadly not in the UK, it depends where you’re based so might be best to chat to Mercedes if you’re based elsewhere 🤓
❤❤
Having the list of direct commands would help.
They’re on the screen if you navigate to the menu 👊🏼
They are different depending on the model and the equipment on the car 👍🏼
@@npoleary
Yep! I found them! They are different for different versions of the English language too! (e.g. GPS vs SatNav, freeway vs. motorway, etc.)
Another great video Nick, thanks. Here's an odd one that I'm hoping you might be able to help me out with - windscreen wipers not returning to the 'park' position on engine shutdown.
I've got a 2021 E-class and had a 2016 C-class before that, and both have this 'feature' whereby (when it's raining outside) the windscreen wipers in auto mode do not turn off and return to the 'park' position when I turn off the vehicle but remain inside. The only option is that the wipers stop immediately when I open my driver's door but they do not then automatically ‘park’. My only option, it seems to me, is to turn off the wipers manually before existing (like an animal), or else try to time it justtttt right to open my door.
Mercedes DO allow for the correct procedure of wipers parking, it is just initiated at the incorrect point of the vehicle turn-of sequence and only when a passenger exits, not on engine shut down.
If wipers did park when ignition is turned off but I am yet to exit the vehicle and wanted them to activate again, I could turn the car back on to accessories but without vehicle ignition.
Turning the car back on to accessories to have wipers working again after engine shut down is how just about every car since the late 70s has handled it and they have all managed to not have windscreen wipers parked in the middle of the windscreen. Why does Mercedes not handle this correctly? I am in Australia and hence a right hand drive, if that makes any difference. Thanks.
Hey Damon, thank you! Yes I’ve seen that on a few models before. I think the newer ones do complete a wipe before returning to Park. Not sure why they do that but I guess it’s the way it’s configured on the car’s electronics.
@@npoleary Thank you very much for your reply and confirming I wasn't just missing something obvious. Though I was hoping that with your inside knowledge, you might have known of some hidden option somewhere, kind of like In And Out Burger's secret menu 😆
They have a secret menu? 👀
Waiting for release 😊
Tomorrow 👀
Hi there. Can I do the set direct entry on a 2023 cla45s ?
I’ve not seen the latest CLA as I didn’t think it was out yet
Direct Entry is just for models that have the latest generation multimedia system called MBUX NTG 7. It’s for Mercedes models that don’t have a touchpad in the middle of the car.
Hi nick will my 21 plate a35 have the facility to put the speed dial on the windshield
Really sorry you’ll have to check the spec I wouldn’t know
Depends what you’ve ordered or is on the car already, so if you’re not sure you’ll have to ask Mercedes and they can check for you.
question i just got 2024 GLS 450(USA), is there song skip button on steering wheel?
Sadly not driven the 2024 version of the GLS so not sure if it’s any different but I did produce this some time ago: ruclips.net/video/maLBpVNBpjM/видео.htmlsi=Qco0pHDY8r3qaVcF
Hopefully it might help!
Hi Nick I have recently bought a Mercedes glb 200 amg premium and it doesn’t seem to have a wireless charger in the middle console I was told it had one on the premium is this correct one more thing I was thinking of buying a stoplock for the steering wheel but not sure which one will fit pro or pro elite had different advice about which one fits etc.
Any advice appreciated
Hey Becan, specs to vary round the world so you’ll have to speak with Mercedes to find out the exact specifications etc.
I haven’t seen wireless charging for quite a while now on GLB.
All Mercedes lock the steering wheel anyway when the car is switched off but I haven’t ever seen one in person so wouldn’t know if any of them are any good.
You might have reach out to the people who make them and see if they fit Mercedes steering wheels.
Do you have a video on gestures? My new e350 has gestures but instructions are not in the manual.
No sadly not it’s quite a rare one but I’ll add it to the list of potential future videos 🤓
They’re quite easy, you simply do the shape of a V with two fingers in front of the screen and can assign favourites to the driver and passenger.
Is there a way to train Mercedes Assisstant to understand my accent when giving commands. Using GLE 300d, with MBUX.
Thank you.
Hey Dr Sandeep, not directly but it learns it automatically overtime 🤓
Is there somewhere that we can see older models such as 2013 M Class
Thanks for the suggestion!
Really sorry I only started my RUclips channel in 2020 so it’s tricky to cover anything prior to that, I’ve not seen anything at my local Mercedes.
Tx Nick. I have a GLE350DE 2022. Recently on German motorways without limit. The top speed the car reached was 185km/h or 115mph. As soon as it reached that speed it did not go higher , sounded like there was a limit set. It was the same for up hill , down hill or flat horizontal . The GLE350 DE manual states maximum speed it is 210km/h. Do you know if cars in U.K have a top speed limit set up as default ? How can it be changed to reach the manufacture limit ?
Have you got Winter Tyres enabled or something? 🤓
Home, Settings, Vehicle and usually in there.
Just double check you have the right tyres on before you go faster! 🤓
@@npoleary Tx Nick . I have sumner 22inch tyres and no winter tyre limit on settings. Very strage , I need to understand why it is happening .
I’d speak with Mercedes and hopefully they can check it out for you 🤓
Can you ask "hey Mercedes" to turn off the lane assist function, or can you only do this manually via the menu?
sadly only via the menu or the Quick Access Menu on MBUX 🤓
Hi Nick, my boot keeps opening automatically whenever I walk behind it with my key in my pocket. Is there a way of disabling this because it is really annoying. Thanks
Hey Matt, when I’ve reviewed Mercedes models in my videos, I’ve never experienced this so I would defo ask Mercedes to check that out!
Hi Nick, As a keen viewer of your videos, perhaps you can help?
I have a 2019 plate C200, and have Mercedes me on my Samsung smartphone. The app now informs me that the driver's window is open. A physical check shows that all windows are closed. Activating the 'Close' command on my phone sends a request to my phone But II gat a response that it is unable to execute the command since "windows/roof have not been adjusted accordingly"
Main dealer and Mercedes me support have been unhelpful.
Shortly before this happened I pressed the lock and unlock command on my key (Can't remember why) so I don't know if this caused an error.
Any comments please?
Cheers Sel Roberts
It shouldn’t have done, have you tried putting all the windows down and back up? If that doesn’t work I’d advise chatting with Mercedes me support, they might be able to run diagnostics remotely 🤓
Thanks Nick,
I tried phoning and emailing Mercedes and Mercedes Me without success. I didn't try the contact button in the car.
HOWEVER, I tried various options/combinations of buttons on the key fob, and eventually found that holding lock and unlock simultaneously, I regained control, and all works as previously.
Thanks for your help.
Keep up the good work!
Hi nick , Dose mersedes me car tracker consider as vehicle tracker for insurance purposes? Appreciate it if give us some info . Thanks.
You’ll have to ask the insurance company that’s up to them.
In most cases they’ll say no, but worth an ask.
They’ll need this info, it’s not a Category S5 or anything like that.
It is a GPS tracker and can be switched on / off by the driver if they know where to look.
Better to be transparent, yes you could get cheaper insurance in some cases but if they found out something that wasn’t declared they could void the insurance. No one wants that.
@@npoleary thanks.
@akamu1051 no worries!
Is NTG6 still updating from MB?
Or only new restyling versione with NTG7?
MBUX NTG 6 will always get map updates or security and bug fixes from what I’ve heard.
Of course you’ll need a valid subscription from the Mercedes me store for map updates called the Navigation Package for that 🤓
clearly - I already have that!
I meant whether updates will ever be released that introduce new features and new options or whether they will remain prerogative of the new restylings
Ah sadly not seen any features added since I’ve reviewed Mercedes back in 2020 but I do own one now so if anything is added via updates, I’ll let everyone know!
Only thing is mine isn’t NTG 6 but likewise if I hear anything from RUclips comments or from Mercedes themselves, I’ll be sure to let everyone know!
@@npoleary thank you Nick! I just bought a 2020 B250e and compared to my old 2013 A250 the evolution of the infotainment is incredible. Also because mine still had the black and white driver's display :D
As an IT enthusiast this is paradise.
Hi
How do I find the list of direct commands? And is there a list of know commands it should understand?
Long as you have the newer MBUX generation, it’ll be under HOME, SETTINGS, SYSTEM and then under the Hey Mercedes settings if I remember.
@@npoleary Thanks, the list of what the MBUX understand is longer than what's under settings. It understands turning on/off heated stearingwheel, same for heated seats and also handling the sunroof. So it just to try out different things.
Nick my man, please clarify something for me. Pre Entry Climate control on the app, when setting a departure time...right at the bottom there is a slide button to "Activate precon at departure time". Doesn't that defeat the purpose of setting a departure time? What is its purpose please?
Yeah I’ve seen that too! I did play around with it before but from what I’ve seen the toggle needs to be on for pre-climate control to work.
@@npoleary thanks mate, keep up the great videos
No worries! Thank you! 🤓
Subscribe below as a favorite! what a nice move there :)
👀 ssssh! Haha 😂
how does hey mercedes not activate when you are talking about it inside the car
Haha 🤓
It’s programmed to listen for a slight pause and then Hey Mercedes. As with any voice assistant, it’s not 100% fullproof, it can trigger on some occasions with just the word Mercedes but it is pretty good!
How to disable the new 2023 GLC key
I'd also like to know this one, have a GLC on order
ah I covered that in a video recently all about the Mercedes keys: ruclips.net/video/mCL6Ifs77RM/видео.html
How come maybe you know ? You cant use a command for the panoramic sunroof ?
No sadly, some models let you give a command to operate the blind, but not windows or the actual roof.
Marry me Yoda Nick ❤
Haha hey Simon! 🤓
I’ve got a tip for you. Be good to your mother!
👍🏼
