Mercedes Benz DRIVING ASSISTANCE Package - FULL WALKTHROUGH GUIDE
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 июл 2024
- The Mercedes-Benz Driving Assistance Package is one of the most intelligent driving assistance systems out there today. It uses systems to make driving more effortless, warning of danger and can even protect occupants and pedestrians in emergencies.
This video is an in-depth guide showing you how to use it, what each item does and how combined it makes one of the most impressive packages you can buy today.
*IMPORTANT*
The Mercedes-Benz Driving Assistance Package is quite rare and not found on every model of Mercedes-Benz. Please double check what your model can do with your local Mercedes-Benz dealership before trying anything out on the road. Spec can vary from model to model and year to year.
United Nations regulation (UN-R-79) also affect the Driving Assistance Package wherby Active Lane Change Assist has been removed.
UN-R-79 requires systems like this to have a hands on / hands off sensor to detect if you have your hands on the steering wheel or not. I'm sure Mercedes-Benz are working hard on this for future models in years to come but will not be available on new cars until further notice. Speak to your local dealership to clarify on further details.
USB-C ADAPTER

Thanks Nick. You are making my driving experience of my new GLE 350 de, more and more enjoyable. Please keep up the good work.
Thank you! 🙏
Will do, planning out the next videos for 2021 already! Keep your eyes peeled late morning New Year’s Day!
Be Safe & have a good Christmas!
Great info! I absolutely love the driving assist package. It’s technology at its finest. I’ll never have another vehicle without it. It’s absolutely amazing. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏻
No worries! Thanks Robert!
Thank you for your videos. I’m having my GLC delivered tomorrow. As it is lockdown in Belgium as well, the delivery is limited to just handover the keys ...
Mecedes Belgium send me a couple of videos covering the basics, so I’m very happy I discovered your channel yesterday. Thanks a lot.
Nice to see the relaxed approach as well not like the overexcited vlogs you often see.
Thank you! Ooo very nice! I’m sure it won’t take you long to master all of the buttons 😜
wow my car has this and i didnt even know, the old cruise control had limitations mainly around adjusting speed and this is on the ball. will definitely give it a try today
Great video Nick. I been watching your videos and they are very informative. My GLS 400D was delivered to me last week and your videos helped me navigate the features of it.
Great work Nick!👏
Thanks Berna! 🤓
thx nick, in my opinion the most informative video the last weeks. my new A250e compact hybrid is going to be build next week with this amazing assistance package.
Great to hear! Ah you'll love it! And the hybrid system too, I'd love that model!
Thanks Nick I just bought a new GLE53 And I have been binging on your videos but this one right here is the cream of the crop my wife and I love your videos keep up the good work the good work a fan for life
Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏 glad you enjoy them! I’ll keep em coming!
Great videos and informative channel. Feels really nice that your local dealership is shown here (which I can see from my window lol). And, Nick, you demonstrate a car with a whole lot of information, in videos and in person, both. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Raffi! 🤓
Thank you Nick, I just found out my new Mercedes has the driver assistance package. Your video explained the functions so clearly. Keep up the good work I really enjoy your videos.
Thank you! 🙏🙏
Thank you Nick. Wonderful explanations. I am 79 year old Australian female. Had our EQA 250 AMG for 3 months. Following the
C 350 e. Fabulous vehicles. ( It is our seventh Mercedes.) But a lot to learn. My husband 86 yrs and I love the idea that it is on full alert, even though we don’t understand much of it, and just drive as we always have. Love Love Love. You and your channel are brilliant.
Oh awesome! Thank you! Glad you’re loving the channel! Ah amazing! I’ll try and keep the videos coming!
Well, it’s a good thing you identified yourself as an Australian female because it matters so much in determining whether you’re an 1d10t or not.
Best video for explaining the assitance and safety functions on the Mercedes.
What a perfect video, explained this so clearly and directly. Best Mercedes channel on RUclips
Thank you! 🤓 glad you love the videos! 👍🏼
Nick another brilliant video and explained in simple and clear terms
If you read the manual as I did when I picked up my GLE 450 it’s actually more complicated and more difficult to understand than your video so well done
Keep them coming
Hi Martin,
Glad you found it helpful! Yes the manual is quite a long one!
Excellent demonstration and explanation of the Driving Assistance Package. I had most of this on my previous (2nd Gen) B Class and it was excellent. I'm currently driving another (very similar!) make of German vehicle with much of this type of system but it isn't quite as good as the Mercedes one, so I have just ordered a new B250e Premium Plus with Driver Assistance Package, which I'm very much looking forward to, but have no idea yet when I'm likely to get it. In the meantime I'm really enjoying your channel whilst I wait to get back into a Mercedes!
Awesome thanks Pete! Ooo sounds like you’ve gone for all of the gadgets! 🤓
I’m sure you‘ll love it! And thanks for watching and of course your kind comments!
Umm. Interesting. A very informative step by step video Nick . Took my phone to the car and playing the video, I have just been out and tried it. Impressive technology. I'm old school and very comfortable doing reverse driving but with a few more uses I will improve my confidence with it.
Sounds Good!
It’s a really neat system and one that shows how advanced some driver assist systems are out there!
Another great and informative video Nick explained superbly Thank you for your time
Another excellent video Nick. Many congratulations, your building up quite a following. The safety systems on the mercedes are second to none and I can totally see how it would make a driver feel safer. We'll don't Nick and thanks.
Thanks Sohail Alrahi 👍
I know I never expected my channel to take off like it has, it was only ever meant to be a small project at the start of the year! So I am very grateful!
Thank you! 🙏
Nick, your videos are superb !
Explanations are educating and clear, video and audio are perfect !
I even enjoy listening to your British accent.
Thanks !
Thank you! 🙏🙏
Glad you enjoy them!
An excellent guide into driver package . These videos make the purchase of a Mercedes much more easier! Thank you very much
Glad you like them Ahmed Baker! 🤓
Thank you. Informative, comprehensive and inclusive.
Hi Rj K,
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
Great vid I know things now and had the car since June lol. Keep the great work up. 👌👌👌👌👌👌
Awesome thanks Paul!
another great video Nick. Super helpful and it's helped me make a decision to add the pack to my newly ordered EQA.
Awesome thank you! 🤓🙏
Ah very nice!
Cheers nick. So very helpful. Your friend from Mercedes-Benz of Wesley Chapel Florida.
thanks for the vid. in 2021 Active stop & go will hold for a full minute
Great Video Nick! Explains the package in full depth, in fact I'll put a link to this video on my website to tell customers about the package on the cars that I have for sale.!
Ah awesome thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! 🤓
Thank you for this video! The Driver Assist Package was my number one priority when I was searching for my GLC. So glad I am spending the extra money for it and cannot wait to get my SUV next Wednesday. Hope my salesman is as knowledgeable as you, but I will still watch your videos to learn all that I can about my first Mercedes!
Ah awesome thanks Theresa! Glad you enjoyed the video! 🤓
Dude you are a true reference to MBUX. Whenever I have a question, I go down the rabbit hole in youtube and always end up finding the answer in your channel. Great explanations, keep it up for us!
Thank you! Will do! I’ll keep em coming!
One add here (that Nick, being the excellent driver that he is, would not demo) : the brake assist will optimally "slam on the brakes" for you if a situation arises where you are braking (hard) to stop to not rear-end a car in front of you. It's like the car says, "You're not braking hard enough, let me do that for you, I can some to a full stop sooner than you can." And it goes ahead and does that. Also, when you pull in or out of your garage, you may discover that your car is a bit paranoid, and reluctant to trust you to not scratch its paint job (it will beep at you)! If you don't know where your car is relative to walls and small paint cans, shelves, and assorted stuff, that can be a bit disconcerting. It will also beep at hedges. Presumably, it will beep at dogs and cats and children and adults and Sasquatch, too.
@davesmith5656 very true! I do plan on testing it (in a controlled way) one day!
@@npoleary -- I'm guessing that it will try to stop at the same distance you have set for the proximity warning. One way to test, since you know pretty much when you can stop, might be to accelerate from some forty yards back towards an intentionally flimsy piece of plywood, maybe even with an old mattress leaned against it. Then brake (not "emergency", but hard), planning on giving yourself only one foot from the barrier. The car won't cheerfully agree with that, and you can feel the brake depress while it calibrates with traction control to produce about in inch of skid before coming to a full stop - probably at about a yard from the barrier. Do you have life insurance? (Joke.)
The new Active Brake assist will brake automatically (in an emergency way). The older systems were where it applies more braking force if you’re applying enough.
But yeah one day I’ll hopefully try it out!
wow! another great video: clear, concise, content Nick, cheers.
Thanks Michael! 🤓 glad you enjoyed it!
Nice and crisp explanation. Very clear.
Great Explanation of all the features !
Nick again another great and informative video. I have the Drivers Assistance Package and love it and can’t recommend it enough - expensive but worth it. As you said it makes a huge difference on long distance drives.
Hi David! Glad you liked the video! 😊
Oh absolutely, long drives are a breeze with it!
Brilliant video Nick. Very well explained and informative. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed the video! 🤓👍🏼
Nice video. Pre-Safety Plus certainly works well in rear end collision.
Thanks Metalstorm!
Another great video from you with very good explanations. Thank you! :) Last week I also ordered my E Coupé including the safety package. Let's see if it will be delivered this year. ;)
Awesome Sven! I’m sure you’ll love it!
Great video and you thoroughly explained it well. Thanks
Thanks Kerry! ^_^ 🙏
This is mad! I could never find a video explaining ALL of the features.
Thanks Ruhel! Glad you enjoyed this video! 🤓
Very helpful again Nick. I had a go in mine today and was strange to just indicate, and the car will overtake for me 😁 I`ve had cars with ACC and lane keeping assist before, but never one that`ll basically drive for me. I wish lane assist wasn`t set to 'on' by default tho`.
Ah thanks for watching! 🙏🙏 glad you enjoyed the video!
I'm glad I saw this video, because I just got a 2019 c300 and It's So Fun to Drive&I'm learning different things about the car everyday,lol.
Awesome Marco pollo! 🤓
I just got one too Marco Pollo same car and also enjoying all of Oleary;s videos.
Hi Nick, your full in-depth videos are awesome! I wonder if you could demo the optional Dashcam someday? Amazing work sir!
Hi Jen,
Unfortunately in the UK it’s not available
:(
I wish it was as it would be a neat inbuilt installation! Something to do with data protection and UK legislation. I hope it changes in the future!
Exceptional car. Perfect engineering by Mercedes. This is absolutely wonderful. A smart car at its best. Wonderful vehicle Mercedes 👏👏👏👏👏
Hi Nick, I’ve just bought a 70 plate E class with driving assistance, so this video was very helpful. By coincidence I’m buying the car from MB Poole even though I live up the North West. I was hoping to possibly meet you when I come to collect, but Jake has said that you aren’t there very often now that you’ve taken on new projects. Cheers.
Ah very nice! I do pop in from time to time as it my local Mercedes! I do want to get back in to film some more stuff.
Plus I have got some more Mercedes videos again coming very soon!
Ooo sounds very nice! 👌🏼
This is the best all in one place video explaining the assistance features.
What ticked me off was when I got an e class with stereo cameras but no active lane change.. some of the features were simply not there. no sign recognition. 🤷🏻♂️ it’s a confusing mess often times
Thanks Larry! Glad you liked the video!
The Driving Assistance Package is the one that upgrades the radar and sensors on the car to offer some more assistive technology like lane keeping, radar cruise control & more.
Fantastic videos, really helped with new car. Thanks.
Awesome! Glad you found them helpful! Thanks George!
1st time on this channel, looks like it'll be a subscription after it all..
I haven't got this feature in my Prem Plus E220d, but I enjoy these features in my partners Kia Niro, quite smart these technologies & very handy for long distance driving.
Thank you Aik Jones for the sub! 🤓
Fantastic video. Glad I found this video. Great explanation of all features. Definitely subscribing to your channel.
Thank you! 🙏 🙏
Glad you enjoyed the video!
My 64 Reg s class W222 kept telling me to take a tea brake down the M62 and A1 last week. It was bang on, I was up at 4am and tired 👍👍
Ah attention assist! It is very clever!
Clear explanation; to the point. Great
Nick, Another very helpful video. Thanks. The Owner’s Manual in many places is poorly written and/or confusing. I have a new 2023 C300 with Driving Assistance package. But the controls on my steering wheel is a bit different from the one you shown on your video, e.g. the preferred car distance is only one button. Would appreciate a short video explaining the updated controls for Driving Assistance.
I would love to, I’ll speak to Mercedes over the next few months and see if I can get my hands on one! 🤓
thanks nick, my 2016 c63s has all that plus intelligent lighting i feel protected knowing the car always has my back
Ooo very nice! 👌🏼
Another great video Nick - very informative 👌
Thanks Mark 👍
Hi Nick
Thank you very much for your fantastic videos, I appreciate very much if you can similar video demonstrations of the EQS driver assistance package plus
Thank you very much
Hey mohamed shaaban! Thank you glad you love them!
Thanks so much for your suggestion! I’ll add it to the list of potential future videos!
Thanks for the video, Nick! Was really usefull!
No worries thank you! 🤓🙏
Nick:
You are just awesome
We have learned all features of our 2023 EOS 580 from your teachings on RUclips . Mercedes should refer all their clients to your episodes on line.
The Mercedes Dealer instructor in our case does not come close to your communicating skills and detailed knowledge of the endless features found on Mercedes cars.
Thank You kindly for all you do in such a pleasant way
Sincerely

Thank you so much for your kind words! 🙏🙏
And thank you so much for watching!
I’ll keep the videos coming! 👀
Will do,
Many thanks for your help Nick.
Kind regards,
PP
No worries!
Great video, bought this package for my GLA Hybrid
Awesome Asif! I think you've fully spec'd your one out right? 🤓
Should be standard kit these days..
Thank you Nick for your channel and videos - they do really help a lot. I wonder if is it possible to add some assitance features later adfter you bought a car?
Thanks Edgaras! Glad you enjoy the videos!
No sadly once a Mercedes is made, you can’t add things like this. I mean it probably would be possible but it would cost a lot of money for the hardware, upgraded sensors, mirrors with blind spot assist, new steering wheel to control it, upgraded multimedia system etc not to mention replacement bumpers with radar.
Sadly Mercedes dealerships don’t offer this because they have to sell the cars as they’re described on their spec sheets so it’s best to find a car with it already on 🤓
BEST demonstration video! Thank you dude!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Enjoyed the video…being I drive 5-8 miles an hour over the speed limit here in the states…would like the ding ding shut off😊
Ah I’ve heard of these in some new cars! That will be a video one day I’m sure! 👍🏼
Massively helpful thank you 😊
Very cool. The buttons are the same but in a mirror reversed Configuration here in the US.
Yeah same
Great video, as always. Thank you! I wonder why the Distronic light (the one with a car + speedometer icons) sometimes is fully green and in some instances the car icon half gets gray?
Thank you!
Green means it’s active and grey means it is inactive.
Your channel is so informative and awesome.
Awh thank you! 🙏🙏
Good video! Appreciated! Warm regards from Norway! 2020 A45s AMG owner
Thanks Hassan! Oh awesome! Would love one of those!
Great and informative video Nick👍
Glad you enjoyed it Darren!
Right,This is Incredible ! While we were driving on Expressways my side wheels front & rear just brakes a little and keep be back to my lane,steering wheels also vibrates or something It’s scary to experience it,Good thing we have this on our car,We really made a good choice in buying Mercedes.I’m a Beginner driver.😊
Awesome MeiMea&KChannel!
Yes the driving assistance package is amazing on Mercedes-Benz cars! Would love it on my own! 🤓
@@npoleary Surely is. I have been watching your videos ever since which makes us also decide to go for Mercedes.,your videos helps me a lot..a BIG Thanks😊
Thank you! Glad you like them! 🤓
Really helpfull ! Great video as usual ! Thannnnnxxxxsss 😁
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great work, You are brilliant!! BR/Stefan
Excellent explanation, clear and concise
Thank you! 🤓
That lane change assist thing was scaring me! lol Gets a little confused by roadworks and contraflows
Great vídeo. I am from Spain and own a GLC 220 CDI 2023 with most of the features of Driving Assistance Package including Active Distance Assist Distronic, Active Lane Keeping Assist, etc. but I do not have Active Steering Assist. I wondered if it's possible to install it now.
Thank you! Sadly it’s not available everywhere due to laws and regulations. Even since producing this video it’s been available in the UK on quite a number of models.
Best thing to do is chat to Mercedes and they can let you know which models would support it in the future
Absolutely outstanding! Very thorough and clear communications.
Thank you Dan! 🤓
Ohh my! I have experienced few of this,I’m a beginner driver,so it helps me a lot,a little scary experience but thanked God we’re safe & thanks to these safety features. 😊🙏
Nice way to explain thanks mate
Thank you! 🙏
That’s a brilliant informative video 👌🏼 I’ve orders the A250e AMG premium plus saloon with drivers assistance package does that come with all the feature you showed in the video thanks 😊
Hey Nathan,
Thank you! All A-Class’s with the Driving Assistance Package currently come with the following features for the UK:
Active Blind Spot Assist
Active Braking Assist with cross-traffic function
Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC
Active Emergency Stop Assist
Active Speed Limit Assist
Active Steering Assist
Evasive Steering Assist
Route-based speed adjustment
Hope that helps!
Thanks for sharing this information
No worries! 🤓
The only option I would have loved to have is active pot hole assist!
Every time my car goes over a pot hole, I feel the wheel just broke off.
E220d cabriolet 2019.
Wow. outstanding!
You doing great with videos. Nice
Hey, thanks Jelly T! 🤓
Hello Nick, again a very informative video. Question, can you also use it in a constant speed modus without the adaptive distance modus?
Hey Erik, not sure what modus is but basically Mercedes will either have
Cruise Control and LIM (for limiter)
or
Distronic Active Distance Assist and LIM (for limiter)
The last one is optional equipment and is only available when ordering at factory and is the one that maintains distance to the car in front.
Normal cruise control does not have this
Hope that helps!
Great video again.
Thanks Mark 😆
So useful !
Great content Nick! A lot of features on the MB!
Thanks Kenneth!
@@npoleary Yesterday I got the 2021 MLB250 4Matic and will be watching your videos to study up on the vast tech before my road trip tomorrow!
Ooo road trip! Anywhere nice?
@@npoleary Seattle to Portland.
Incredible!
Great tutorial.
Thank you! 🙏
Valuable and informative video. I have just purchased 2017 E Class premium plus but it doesn’t seem to have this full package. The one I really miss from my previous Jag is Blind Spot Assist. How can I check for it. Also how can I check if Active Brake Assist is working. Thanks
Hey John,
Thank you John! 🤓
Active Brake Assist will be working all the time, it would notify if there was something wrong.
Regarding the other things, the Driving Assistance Package is a separate package for most cars in the UK. It is really cool but most of the features are offered for people who do lots of motorways driving. If you have Blind Spot Assist, you’ll see red warning triangles in your mirrors when someone is in your blind spot when travelling at speed.
Nick great video! Anyway to disable the speed limit indicator visual from the latest mbux dashboard? I have to constantly turn the audio off every time I drive.. 😅
Thank you!
Is this like a newish car? It’s a regulation on new cars from what I’ve heard and has to be turned off manually per driving session
@@npoleary brand new, I think your right, makes sense it can just become a distraction even if you go over limit by 1mph.. hopefully it improves safety going forward
I got this on my order for a cla
Hold up pre save plus is that also includes all the other stuff?
Great video Nick. I got my GLC300 (US Model) last July and it came equipped with option DA2 Driver Assistance Package. For several months I was able to use the Active Lane Changing function. However this function doesn't work anymore. I wonder if I have by accident changed one of the settings. Do you have any suggestions on how I can regain access to this function? Thanks
Hey Star, sadly it not available on most cars in the UK unless there’s some sort of hands on/hands off sensor on the steering wheel.
If I remember, it was on the centre screen in the middle of the car, in HOME, SETTINGS, ASSISTANCE and then Active Lane Change Assist 🤓
Hope that helps!
Videos like these make me want the GLB even more :) Nick, regarding Active Lane Keeping assist system. What will happen if I am on the motorway, going left lane, and on the left I have a new lane to leave the motorway. will the car follow the solid lane (so go left) or stay on the original course?
Hi Michal,
It is just of course a driver aid so won’t drive for you but it would stay on the motorway. But if you would have indicated it switches it off temporarily.
Nick, really apreciate your guide / explanation of the MB world.... I have a question for you about this option that I have found analyzing my vin ( W177 a 200 1.3L 163hp ) : 8U6 Assistance system steering wheel control changeover. My car does not have an icon like you shown at the minute 7.15... I only have the "active lane keeping assist" icon/function.... It is normal this situation ??
Tanx in advise !!! and cheers from Italy !!
Thank you! Ah the steering assist isn’t available on all models and it does vary from country to country, best thing to do is check with your local Mercedes as they’ll be able to give you the most up to date info.
Another really useful video Nick. I waited a very long time for my A250 with Driver Assistance, and it was well worth the wait, particularly when I drive on the stop/start slow/fast North Circular. Though it took a while to be brave enough to let the car break for me!
The only thing that I wish it did better would be to be able to automatically change the regular speed limiter based on road sign speed limits. Driving around town you are unlikely to be using Distronic, but where there are roads that change from 20 mph to 30 mph it would help if the limiter could auto change.
Hi Dave, glad you enjoyed the video!
Is it a new A 250 with MBUX (Hey Mercedes)? If so....
On your steering wheel you know you have the cruise control / DISTRONIC buttons, you've probably seen the resume / cancel button but if you press resume up twice really quickly it'll copy the data from Traffic Sign Assist to your Limiter 🤓
Saves you having to set it every time!
@@npoleary does that also work for models without driver assistance .
Hey James,
Yes you can! Most models have this feature
If you look at the right hand side of the steering wheel, on the cruise control part there’s Resume / a picture of a traffic sign
I’ve got a video on those buttons here: ruclips.net/video/9EYSOX7hJh0/видео.html
Thank you!
Thanks Nick for posting your informative videos. However, I still have a question: Will the Active Brake Assist system always be ON whether the Adaptive Cruise Control has been engaged or not? I found out that it works fine when the Adaptive Cruise Control is engaged, but I’m unsure if it does when the ACC is disengaged.
I really don’t want to try to test this feature because of the risk involved if it didn’t work.
Hey Star, most modern Mercedes have Active Brake Assist as standard but yes it is always on/active.
Obviously don’t try it out, it’s a safety system that is designed to save the occupant’s life or at the very least reduce the severity of an impact
Thank you for explaining the features. I bought a 2024 GLC where the car automatically initiates Active Lane Change Assist when destination is set and cruise control is set. Is there a way to just turn off the car initiating this maneuver (Active Lane Change Assist)? I find this annoying and almost dangerous sometimes. I prefer to initiate it and car follows direction if safe to do.
No worries!
Yeah our can do, it usually in Settings, Assistance, Active Lane Change Assist 🤓
Just toggle off in there
Hey Nick what is the difference between driving assistant and driving assistant plus ? - great videos thanks
It’ll be a couple of different features found usually on different models. Don’t believe I’ve ever seen this in the same model before.
Which ones were you looking at?
Another really educational video for Mercedes cars. Nick, can you please tell me if this is the package which will be on a 2020 gla amg premium with driver assist package @£1500? Thanks again! Martin.
Hi Martin,
Thank you for your kind comments! 🤓
Yes that's right it's £1,495.00 for the package on the GLA
Hi Nick
Bought MB GLB200. I have been watching your videos. Very professional and thorough. Thank you. I don’t have Driving DISTRONIC package but i have looked up Rjautomotive who is selling Kits for that to be done as DIY. Would you consider that as a safer option ? Would it void warranty ? Any thoughts please? Thank you
Hey @ArunPatel-hy5yk,
Ooo very nice! Thank you! Glad you enjoy them 🤓
I’ve not ever heard of that before however yes any modifications done to any car regardless of the manufacturer would most likely void a warranty as that’s not how it was shipped when it was made.
I’ve had people ask me before about retrofitting that sort of thing and I didn’t even know people were selling kits but there must be more to it. Driving Assistance Package is rather complicated, it has a different steering wheel, sensors on the front bumper / windscreen, upgraded sensors in the back and different menus in the multimedia system. That’s what I learned when I asked Mercedes prior to making this video.
If you have specific questions about it though, I’d advise to contact Mercedes and see what they say.
I would actually like to cover this topic again so need to get back in and film it again and see if anything’s changed 🤓
Hi Nick, thank you very much for your response. Yeah it’s not exactly Driving assistance package it’s just more like a adaptive cruise control so steering wheel beat you have to manure, but it will adapt the speed and keep the distance according to the adaptive cruise control but since it will give me a problem with warranty. I’ve still got five more years to go. I don’t want to take any chance I will just go with this. Better be careful next time when I buy I guess😊
You did explain it so well, not surprise you work at Mercedes 😉👌
Thanks Photo Hope! Glad you like the video! 😊

Hi Nick, great videos helping me before new car delivery. Do you know what is holding up registering new AMGs before January? I am told something about emissions. Car at dealer since mid November but can’t get it till january......
Hi Richard, not sure on that one. I know there have been lots of delays in the UK due to COVID-19. The factory even pretty much closed at one point but if this is a car in stock, it could be due to what your local dealership might be able to cope with at the moment. Due to furloughed staff etc, they might have been forced to take holiday or something meaning less staff in the dealership. I don’t know for sure, but it could be that? Haven’t heard anything about emissions though...
Hi Nick.
Just switched my VW ID.4 to a 2020 Mercedes E300de - picking it up in a weeks time.
Thanks for this and all your other SUPER informative videos regarding Mercedes functionality.
The only thing that bugs me is that lane assist is on per default due to regulations.
On my ID.4 it was possible to use OBD dongle to set the lane assist to “off” or “Remember last setting” in order to avoid having to turn it off every time I start the car… is there a similar possibility in the 2020 E300de?
It would be great to have the 2021 E300de with MBUX including touch screen instead of Command, but that would cost an additional 20.000 pounds 😎
Once again: Thanks SO much for all your videos; invaluable information for a new Merc owner like myself!
Thank you! Glad you’re enjoying them!
Sadly I wouldn’t know, I wouldn’t want to plug an OBD dongle into my own car just in case. Lane assist is only active above 40mph anyway and isn’t active when you indicate changing lanes
