3:07 You can also release the "Hold" by tapping again the brake and honestly it is better to do so because by pressing the accelerator it will start moving the car forward with a small "bump" (due to the force needed to overcome the brake hold) while by tapping the brake it will start moving slower but smoother.

Nick. Great videos and information. Couple questions on navigation. Is there a way to have the navigation system "accept" the use of toll roads? The past few trips, the navigation system avoids the use of toll roads and provides/maps a different route...sometimes resulting in a considerable longer drive. When I do ignore the guidance and enter a toll road system, I get a pop up window asking if I want to really use the toll road. I have looked but cannot find a function within the navigation system setup to "use/accept" toll roads. Almost all navigation apps provide that setup option. The other question...how do I increase the volume of MBUX navigation "voice" instructions. Thank you again Nick.

@npoleary 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Stan! Thank you! Glad you’re enjoying the videos! It should be on by default but you can check it (for MBUX) on the screen: HOME NAVIGATION SETTINGS (one with the cogs) ADVANCED ROUTE AVOID OPTIONS TOLL ROADS And also adjusting the voice is like other cars, just adjust the volume only when it talks back to you and it’ll change the voice only 👍🏼

@stankays704 2 жыл бұрын

@@npoleary Found it. Toll roads were "not" selected to be avoided, but there was one item under toll roads that that marked "avoid". I changed that to "Use". Thanks again Nick. OH! One other question. On the way home and on the freeway/major highway, my Blind Spot sensor inoperative and braking assist not fully functional warning s popped up on the MBUX driver's side screen. I went into systems settings and these items were "greyed" out...unable to turn them on or off. Got home, turned off the car and turned it back on and warnings came up again. That was Thursday. This morning started car to pull it out to wash and no warnings plus under systems, these items were no longer greyed out. ????? After washing pulled it into the garage and only had one small object warning screen/camera rather than small on left and larger on right of main MBUX screen. Appt made with my dealer. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Thank you again

MBUX NTG 6 has wavey lines for the voice assistant and MBUX NTG 7 has sparkles for the voice assistant (how you can easily tell the difference).

Hi Nick Thank you very much for some very helpful instructions. I have just received my new E400D and I have an issue with MBUX voice command system which I was hoping you could help me with? I live in Denmark and the issue that I have is that the voice command system only comes in either English or German. The system is therefore useless when it comes to recognising Danish names (persons or streets). Then I watched your tip regarding assigning family members to “Hey Mercedes” and thought that was a way for me to at least be able to use the voice command system for my contacts. But, I then realised that my car does not have this functionality :-(. However, in the same menu it does come with the functionality “Add voice tag” and I thought that this would work in a similar way (e.g. recording the word “brother” as voice tag would mean that I could call my brother by saying “call my brother” to “Hey Mercedes”). However, it does not seem to work and I cannot find any instructions on what “Add voice tag” does, not in the manual and not online. The big question I was hoping you could help me with is therefore if adding a voice tag can help me with my language challenge, i.e. what does a “voice tag” do and how does it work?

@npoleary 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Martin, no worries glad you enjoyed the videos! Really sorry I’m not sure I’ll be able to assist as MBUX varies massively round the world so there may be different features etc The voice tag in the UK is to assign a name for the voice assistant to read out so if it was reading out incorrectly, you can give it a custom name.

Just here to point out that on tip #8 when you’re talking about range the blue circle indicates how far you can go using both electric and fuel.

hello Nick, do you think that in some update of mbux the screen will be used for Apple CarPlay in full size? There are other brands that do this. greetings and congratulations for your videos

@npoleary 2 жыл бұрын

I wish it was full screen too but there are other manufacturers who have come across the same issue before. The reason is because MBUX is available in two screen sizes, 7” & 10.25”. When designing and coding I’m led to believe that you can only choose one (to maintain compatibility) for everything. So to make sure it works on all models, Mercedes of course had to go with the 7” version, which is perfect for 7” owners but of course leads to a cropped experience if you have a 10.25” screen. Fingers crossed that future models have a workaround for this 🤞🏼

Hey Tshepiso Moloko, thanks for the suggestion! What did you want to know about tyres? Sadly car manufacturers like Mercedes don’t make their own tyres, instead they usually opt for Premium branded tyres like Continentals, Pirellis among others too. This varies from model to model and I’m sure is different round the world too.

@tshepisomoloko4375 2 жыл бұрын

@@npoleary Thank you. Yes I totally agree and understand. Mercedes Benz doesnt manufacture its own tires. One of the topics that could assist is an average or estimated time to change tires(This is relative question since its also dependent on each driver) - My model is using Bridgestone, the car has about 37000km on it and the dealerships say tires need to be changed every 20000km some say every 40000km and tyre manufactures say a different figure Secondly with the technology that our cars have. Surely there should be a way of seeing when a car's tyres are installed or removed. Like a log sheet or report on tyres. So just the understanding on the technology around the car and the tyres. There's already some good online videos on tyres pressures but none on what Mercedes has installed.

@jiajianhou426 Жыл бұрын

The hold function was implemented in or before 2014. I knew it from a 2014 C300 commercial. Mercedes hold function is much better than other manufacturers’ hold. With Mercedes you can decide each time when you stop if you want to hold just using your foot. Natural. But most other brands assign a button for it you have to press/pull to engage or disengage. It’s very frustrating when you need it for one sec and then you stop a second time but you don’t need it (parking), but it holds itself again.

I hv been on the merc. Q&A to get help and into my local dealer to ask for help but nothing has been forth coming. Do you know where I can go or what do I do for help . I did watch you video on setting up in car office and followed your step by step process but mine does not get to the add pin, when I try to open. Only as I say , please wait ? Hopeful you can advise . Many thanks 🙏🏻

Hey Toto, thank you! Glad you enjoy the videos! Really sorry I’ve only used it a couple of times as it’s not really a feature I use day to day. I guess one thing they could try is if they remove the car from the account and link it back up just to see if that makes anything work? Other than that, I would imagine your local Mercedes would have to have a look with the car or your account just to double check it’s set up in the right way. Just thinking about it too, double check the permissions from the Office 365 / Gmail side as privacy settings that end may be blocking it.

What!!! No power seats?? 😂 but seriously I've never had the opportunity to use my adaptive head lamps. I love my Benz. I did get pulled over once. No ticket thankfully. An oncoming patrol unit near my home assumed my high beams were on. So I showed her my bright beams. Then I showed her the progressive intensity of the fog lamps. That even amazed me.

It should. I have a 2014 E350 Bluetec and if water falls on the rain sensor it closes the sunroof but leaves it tilted. I guess it's a safety feature to ensure it stays tilted up in case the owner left it open for a reason.

Hi Nick, I take the opportunity to ask you in this video, because I see the symbol "P" in blue appearing for example at 3:00, when you are explaining about the "Hold" functionality. Can you tell me what this blue "P" is? If it is related to the parking slot search feature, why does it appear although I didn't explicitly ask for my E200 to search for a parking spot, by pressing the camera/P button at the central console (between driver and passenger) ? Thanks and cheers, Kim

@npoleary Жыл бұрын

Hey Kim, yes that’s right it’s to do with parking assistance. However if you’re not sure if your car has it, double check with your local Mercedes dealership and they can let you know. Some cars made after 2020 sadly don’t have parking assist anymore so check to be sure. The Blue P comes on when it’s scanning for spaces which it will always do below 20mph. Got a video on it here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e7yJnZN2zM2yaWQ.html

Hey! Sadly I only started my KZfaq channel in 2020 part time but now do it full time. I’ve not ever sat in one of that year so wouldn’t know if it can be adjusted. I thought the bulk of Mercedes Ambient Lighting adjustments and things kind of came out around 2014 with a few models allowing adjustment and the colour etc. Might be worth getting in touch with them and see if they can advise although I’m not sure they can modify anything via their OBD ports.

@npoleary 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Active Child, hmmm it depends to be honest, the only “shuddering” I would describe on new cars is the mild hybrid system (if you have it on yours). The engine can go off on these models as you slow down to save fuel and you can feel it ever so slightly. But yes it is right Mercedes gearboxes do learn their drivers driving habits overtime and adapt accordingly. If you think something is wrong though, get in touch with your local Mercedes retailer and they can check it out for you. Glad you’re loving the videos! 🤓👍🏼
