Hello Nick I have been watching your videos for a while now, Just bought my first ever Mercedes C300d 2020 plate from Sandown Epsom few days ago. All my life I had BMW's. When I unlock my car i can't see headlights coming on at all not even at day or Night my headlight switch is in the middle Auto. Also in BMW's remote you can turn the headlights on is this possible in Mercedes.. Thanks

Many thanks for your tip on using the Hold function, it is a really good way of using my GLC220D but, I have noticed that while the vehicle is stationery on Hold the rear break lights remain on thus in certain conditions be very annoying to the vehicle behind. Yet if I put the car in Neutral the rear brake lights go off so the question is can I use the Hold function and while on Hold can the break lights be turned off ?

Hey Karen, yah is for the suggestion! I wasn’t planning to do a video on just that, but if a car is capable of multi-colour you’ll see it on screen. Press, HOME, COMFORT, AMBIENT LIGHTING, and then press COLOUR. If a car can change to multi colour, it’ll be shown here. From what I’ve seen when reviewing the cars, it seems to be only cars that have the MBUX Multimedia System or a couple of cars that have the latest generation of COMAND (NTG 5.5)

@dhjpais 25 күн бұрын

Hi Nick, I have my EQA 350 4MATIC AMG-LINE Premium finally and, after some frustration - it is a seismic change from my Insignia Estate ‘work-horse’ and managing the cruise control is something I feel has to be mastered if you don’t want to constantly be driving all the way to the speed limit and, inexplicably, there is a section of road on the M5 on my commute to work where the car believes the speed limit is 80 MPH!? And a 7 mile stretch of the A40 in Wales where the authorities carrying out roadworks negated to remove the 50 mph limit signs, when it is quite obvious that it should have returned to 70, so that means marshalling the ‘cancel’ feature, switching off the audible warning and being ready, when my car tries a couple of times to pull you back to 50 from 65 (my preferred speed), which happens when it thinks it has moved to 60 and back (so a change event), which is actually quite dangerous if you happen to have one of those annoying ‘tail-gaters’ (sorry that was a lot more than I intended to write on that) - I love it. So, I am revisiting all of your great videos, particularly settings / tips and tricks. However, I cannot find your video where you explained how to set up ‘Nick’ names (see what I did there!?) for your contacts, so I want to say ‘Call my Queen’ (my wife) but try as I might I cannot find it on my settings. Would you be so good as to point me in its direction? Thanks for all your videos, they are terrific.

@npoleary 25 күн бұрын

Awh thank you and thanks for sharing! Glad you love the videos! Yes tech on cars completely relies on the surrounding environment for it to show the correct info and maps etc for speed changes. As long as you know of course how it works, then you toggle between using the cruise control and manually etc on a road trip. I do recall in one of the videos I made on how you can assign family members but it’s not on the latest generation of MBUX. I believe Mercedes removed that feature as I’ve not seen it. It depends what year your EQA is. If it’s the newer facelift one then I don’t believe it’ll have it

@dhjpais 25 күн бұрын

@@npoleary Hmmm, seems they removed a few things - I thought that I’d have been able to find it, so I am not surprised it has been removed. I would’ve also liked it if they’d kept the centre touchpad, the little tray is, I feel slightly pointless and the steering wheel touch controls take quite some getting accustomed too, jumping up instead of across. Sound like a proper moaner, I have decreased my commute cost from over £16 a day to around £3.50 worth of electricity

@dhjpais 8 күн бұрын

@@npoleary Actually, few more hundred miles in and playing with the settings, I have found that you can remove the feature for automatic adjustment of speed - in the settings. My experience is much more enjoyable now, and I have control. The EQA 350 still reduces to the speed limit but only after you cancel the cruise control. Much better :-)

Hi Nick. I love your videos mate. An they have help’t me out so much so thank you for that. But l have a question maybe one of us customers have. During this day an age. How come during this day an age. l’m not maybe the only one here. As a customer. I’ve had my car serviced with someone else an my MBUX as been playing up after 2yrs old. An l got told by Mercedes today that they do a update every service you have to keep it up to date. So my question is to you is if that’s the case. Then why don’t they add the software update as a service plan? It shouldn’t make any difference at all who does the service as long as you use genuine Mercedes parts. Then l get told that because Mercedes have not done my last 2services that they can’t sell on my vehicle if l sold it them. Funny think is l had a Audi S3 an Mercedes offered me 19k for part ex for this car an l sold it for 21k without my service being with Audi. So another question is it doesn’t make any difference at all who services your car. I’m a bit disappointed with Mercedes today how they can treat customers that buy there products. An maybe l’m not the only one here either 😢

@npoleary 10 ай бұрын

Thank you! Really sorry I don’t think I have an answer for the software updates but I’ll try. Modern Mercedes (ones with MBUX) can do over the air updates which is pretty good. But…those are typically just sat Nav updates. There can be updates for other things but it’s usually multimedia system related more than anything else. What they maybe been referring to is software updates for specific control units, modern cars have absolutely loads of them. These won’t add features not like an update for a phone but I’ve heard they’re just like bug fixes etc as these days, cars are literally computers on wheels! Of course only Mercedes dealerships will have access to the latest updates. It’s up to you where you get a car serviced, but Mercedes do have a few perks and benefits from main dealer servicing like European Breakdown cover that I covered in a video once.

Hi Nick, because my wife hates motorways, I have them "avoid" in the MBUX navigation system. However, the system now appears to avoid dual carriageway town bypasses e.g A46 Warwick, A417 Cirencester, A303 Andover etc. This results in being routed into the towns and subsequent traffic jams. Is there any way I can avoid this without reinstating Motorway route guidance?

@npoleary Жыл бұрын

Hey Harrod, ah okay I’ve not tried it before to be honest plus I haven’t seen any settings to control dual carriageway / motorways separately. It’s possible that’s how Mercedes have it on their Sat Navs so if you wanted to and if you can (spec on the car etc) try using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto and use Google Maps or something like Waze. Slightly different Sat navs so they may do things a bit different. Hope that helps!

How to adjust instrument cluster on 22 plate A180 executive sport to get 2 instrument dials

@npoleary 8 ай бұрын

If it only has one dial then it'll be a 7" screen so two dials wouldn't be possible. I believe when ordering from new, there's an option for a larger screen with a 10.25" screen which gives you two dials as it's physically a larger screen. But chat with Mercedes to be 100% sure 🤓

Hi Nick! I am wondering if you have an update on the Android Auto Coolwalk ?

@npoleary 11 ай бұрын

Hey Moon44, sadly I don’t know which phones it’s compatible with. Annoyingly not compatible with the Android phone I purchased for the video. Might have to buy another! 😅

@moon0494 11 ай бұрын

@@npoleary thanks for the reply! The Google Pixel phones are the pure and latest android experience, so if you are interested in testing the Android Auto Coolwalk UI it could be the best place to start (might I say also relatively inexpensive). Thanks again! I look forward to it.

Is there a way to not get the "your car is unlocked" notification when im home ?? I would like to have the notifications on, but since i leave my car unlocked at home i get at least 3 notifications when i park and since my car is an E.Q i like to recieve the notifications telling that is done charging.

No sadly not, I’ve not seen a way to change that. That’s a good idea though with customisable notifications. Let’s hope Mercedes put that onto the app in the future!

Mercedes me services wouldn’t be able to tell if your car I actually on and you’re driving round etc. If it happened once, then fine but if it happens again I would speak with Mercedes.

Nick, I thought of a better example as to why a Mercedes owner would want to use Geofencing... A person could use Geofencing so if they're at home cheating, when the spouse is in the area of coming home, then the phone will go off stating that the car is approaching home! LOL

Thank You for the tips and tricks video's!!! I have found several things that I did not know about on my car. I love the ejector seat!!! I have a Burmester and it is the premium system so it is very loud!!!(A #53?) I am having trouble with getting my Android Auto to stay on!!! The Android Auto just goes dead shows a blue ecreen??? Not good in a $65,000 SUV... So, Tomarrow morning, (10-1-23) I am going to see if the dealer can fix it, or I will stop paying my payments and part the car out to China!!! If you are wondering why I would do that, it is because since I purchased the car, the dealer could care less that I had a check engine light on at "2750" miles!?!?!!! Tomarrow they will be forced to show me the pro-active code. OH!!! My left head cover is no longer with the engine cover...There is about an inch of space between the two covers. The plastic, after 1.5 months, is already warping!!!

Thank you! Glad you’re enjoying the videos! Yeah defo get in touch with them if you have a couple of issues, I’m sure they’ll be able to look at. Regarding the engine management light, in ANY car, this can come on for a variety of reasons, in fact the list is so long that mechanics and technicians will 99% of the time need to check it out to find out what it is. It could be as something simple like a fuel filler cap not shut correctly (pressure in the system), could be a low battery for very low mileage driving or a sensor or something is actually mechanically wrong. It could be anything so a mechanic / technician will be able to check it out for you and get you back on the road 🤓
