Spot on XYZ56771, I bought a Merc C220d AMG line estate ( 69 plate ) recently. Traded in a 66 plate Ford Mundano ( Mondeo ) titanium and was gobsmacked at how un-intuitive the Merc controls and media system is compared to the Ford. Having said that, I love the car and it's been interesting finding out the features etc , some by myself and with Nick's awesome videos. Once you understand how it is laid out it isn't really that difficult, I guess it's just I got used to a different system with the Ford. Cheers.

The old one with the dots on the dash and at the back on the inside of the roof was better than showing it on the multimedia display. It forced you to look at the front or at the back and worked extremely well. I wonder why they did away with such a wonderfully thought out idea. The front sensors are delayed because you drive forward all the time. It doesn't want to then beep in traffic or when pedestrians walk past. It's very clever.

What nowadays seems to be missing on the rear camera image, is the straight lines of where the wheels are pointing. I had that on my 2016 C class and was quite helpful to know when to turn your wheel straight again. It's missing on my 2017 E class and from what I see in the video is also missing in current models.

Idea for another video - not sure if it's sufficiently large an idea for an entire video though. I personally find all those curved lines on the reversing camera very unhelpful. I guess they're supposed to show where you're currently heading with the current amount of steering lock, but for me when I'm parking in our underground car park reversing into my parking space, they don't help me at all. I tend to just look at how far I am from the wall and the car to my right and then switch it into top-down view to make sure I'm parking in a straight line. I've got the auto-parking feature but I feel like I'd be giving up if I reverted to using that. A video showing where you use the lines to help you reverse-park into a regular supermarket style middle space. Or is it just me?

Hello Nick very good information. However, when entering a parking space from an approach angle of around 90 degrees, you often need to get extremely close to a parked car so you can complete the maneuver in the middle of the parking space. Unfortunately, the sensors are blaring away in red and you have to guesstimate how close you actually are to the next vehicle with your front. Its very uncomfortable getting so close and the parking sensors in this situation are useless. If you could tune them so that around 4 inches they become red would be a huge help in this everyday scenario.
@npoleary Жыл бұрын
Hey Andrew, yes I’ve noticed that the parking sensors will bleep red when they’re approx the same width as a Mercedes steering wheel. Haven’t seen any option to adjust them in settings although on some cars you can enable “Warn Early” which would beep a lot further back.

Hi Nick. Great video as always. I wonder if there is any explanation for the reverse camera still on while driving forward. I thought it was an error, or a feature I could turn off. Apparently not. Quite disturbing…
@npoleary9 ай бұрын
Oh no it shouldn’t be disturbing It’s designed that way 🤓 I asked Mercedes this years ago and this is what they said. Reversing cameras used to be just mounted on the exterior exposed to the light conditions which made it show the image instantly. Because they were on the outside they got dirty very quickly. However newer styled cameras now have a retractable housing which is good for keeping it clean but the camera when it pops out has to expose for the light (daytime / nighttime / low light etc) and it can take seconds before it actually shows you an image. To combat this Mercedes will have the camera “pre-pop out” as you slow down so when you do select reverse, the image is shown instantly.
@danielrustico9 ай бұрын
@@npoleary Thanks for the explanation Nick :-) It makes sense when considering the employed technical solution (still not user friendly though). Specially when manouvering, back and forth several times in a row might reduce the camera lifespan. At the same time, I feel there is room for improvement there. For instance, by having the indoor reverse camera always on (like a dashcam) and automatically deciding when to display the image. Some people could even wish to have it on all the time, like an extra rear view mirror. It should simply be a user choice in my opinion 😉 Thanks again!
@npoleary9 ай бұрын
Ah I see the only issue with that is that Dashcams need to be on the interior otherwise they’ll get messy from the road and render them useless at recording events etc. Some cars do have Dashcams built in which is great, I’ll be checking mine out soon when I get it back so make sure you’re subscribed (just to be notified) and I’ll let everyone know how it works!

Hey Wynn, I’ve had this happen once before but upon looking, it happened to be a plastic bag floating around in the wind 😅 Best thing I can suggest, if something is causing them to go go off you can switch them off very quickly. If you have MBUX, there’s actually a button on the top right to turn them off temporarily (you can see this in thumbnail of the video). If you have any other multimedia system, usually they’ll be a button with the symbol for a sensor and the word “off” either in the middle of the car next to the wheel to control the multimedia system. Or rarer than this it’ll be over on the right above the AUTO light switch but it’s not that common to be in this area.

Hi Nick. Can you do a full video on using parking sensors with most recent mbux NTG 7, where they the front and rear sensors are located, how to read and understand the front and rear sensors (which is quite complicated to read and understand). With normal standard parctronic one simply sees the sensors in front and rear (via rear view mirror), simple. Here there is a front sensor showing in the front HUD and I can not see any sensor displays physically located in the rear. The ones located in the NTg 7 display are very difficult to understand. Plus additionally when reversing to parallel park next to a curb the side mirrors don't automatically swivel downwards so you can not physically see the curb and the display shown on the NTG 7 display is very difficult to read and comprehend, you see lines but the section of vehicle in the actual cartoon photo shown on display is displayed in a "cloudy" way. With no mirrors slanted to show the curb and the curb section not clear in the photo it makes is almost impossible to confidently park without risking of suffering wheel curb damage without nervously having to spend time while you have passing cars waiting for you to park to either pull down window and stick your head out and physically see the distance between your wheels and the curb or to attempt to manually adjust the side mirrors to slant down and they don't easily and simply slant down and in most cases don't slant down enough to see the curb. Suffice it to say one has to count their blessings and wing it and hope for the best they don't hit the curb. I would be truly grateful if you can do a comprehensive video on the topic and if you can please demonstrate it with a vehicle that has rear axle steering. Many thanks!!!

While it’s on screen, just use your finger to control where you’re looking or use the presets on the menu bar that pops up from the bottom when on the camera. I will definitely be covering some more NTG 7 content soon though!

Sadly I only started my channel in 2020 so have limited coverage on cars prior to that, but… Mercedes sensors always used to “visual first” and the sound means stop. So the yellow blocks that come up on the sensors, usually 2-3 is enough for most parking situations. When it goes red, red is about the width of the steering wheel which is very close and does sound then.

Hi Nick, great video as usual, have you put together something for winter driving for example snow to take advantage of the all wheel drive system & settings on my new GLE thank you. Bill
@npoleary2 жыл бұрын
Hey BillM, thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video! No sadly hadn’t planned anything on winter driving, but if you have a GLE, you’re almost set up anyway. The 4MATIC system of GLE’s passes power to both axels evenly which some other models don’t do. In terms of ultimate winter driving if it’s continually cold, winter tyres will improve your experience even more but of course there is cost for these. If your car features it, Dynamic Select can be changed to “Slippery” if you have it for tough conditions. Hope that helps!

Love the vids, my dude. But where is that OK/Accept button? Can't find it. Also can't find it when the car asks me when starting up, to "confirm" using the same Dynamic drive I used last. Also, also my car doesn't seem to want to do the auto lane change. What am I doing wrong? Lol Lefthand drive Mercedes A200 from 2021. With all the add-ons available.

Hey Nick, I know this might be a bit late, but I recently talked with you about getting a 2023 GLA 45 AMG (my dream car). I realized that it didn’t came with sensors, is there a way to installing them after being manufactured? I recently spoke with my NY MB car dealer and they told me that it was not recommended to installed them after manufactured. I did had a 2018 GLA 180 sport with parking sensors in Peru, and it was the best car I could have as an Architect for such tight and bumpy roads. Is there a way to certifiably install them without damaging anything OR do I need to buy the certified pieces from Europe or UK and find a third party installer on my own? I have been cautious with the car and its 382hp but not having sensors keeps me at edge. Please do let me know if there is a way I could install 2023 GLA 45 AMG parking sensors assists or other third party sensors I could safely install in my car!
@npoleary4 ай бұрын
Hey! Oh yeah a GLA 45, wow what an awesome car! Sadly I don’t cover modifications on my channel or mechanical aspects so I really wouldn’t know. If I was in the same position as you I’d be speaking to my local dealer too. Most car manufacturers will never retrofit things as they usually will only sell things as they’re described from new. You yes of course could get them fitted but it would be an aftermarket option which wouldn’t integrate with the car’s system. You’ll have to chat with Mercedes for their expertise on that one.

Hi Nick, great vlog. A couple of questions.. how do I change the distance of the beeps for parking sensors on my 2016 A Class (facelift model) and Im thinking of changing the car soon but want something with a much softer ride, which models would you suggest? Thanks.
@npoleary Жыл бұрын
Sadly on models before these newer systems, the parking sensors aren’t linked to the multimedia systems so you can’t change them. C-Class is the next model up from A-Class technically but the newer ones are even more luxurious. Have seen my review of them?
@adamsher86 Жыл бұрын
@@npoleary Thanks for the info. I have seen them but the new C class is out of my price range. I'll prob be looking at around a 2019 C class or CLA when I change. Am I right in thinking the C class is a better riding car as I find the A Class quite bumpy?
@npoleary Жыл бұрын
Yeah but I would’t describe it as bumpy, the A-Class is smooth but firm and solid (as you would expect from a premium car) C-Class just takes it one step further it’s even smoother and quieter and you find that the more you go up the range in Mercedes ending with S-Class & Maybach

It's going in for some recall work in a couple of weeks and I think am being given a cla as a courtesy car so will see what that's like as it has the new style dash like the new A Class. Can't decide which model is next for me, that's the hard bit! Would you be able to do a comparison video between the cla and c class?

@npoleary Жыл бұрын
Just adjust the volume when the thing you want to adjust is making noise. So for example if you want to adjust the Sat Nav volume, just adjust it when the sat Nav is talking to you 👍🏼 For parking sensors though, as they are not coming through the audio system, sadly you can’t change those on that model.

Hi Nick, love your videos! Thanks for the tutorials! I’m just wondering if there’s anyway to keep the parking sensors on while parking so visually you can see the colours but turn the beeping sounds off when you need to.

Thanks Amber! Glad you love the videos! Ah that button on the 2016 one turned them off entirely (sound & visual) On the newer ones you can adjust the front with a setting called “Warn Early” just like in the video 🤓 In answer to your other question, it will only do that if you have the Driving Assistance Package. It’s an option you can select and factory and that part is always on, it replaces the standard cruise control function.

@npoleary2 жыл бұрын
Hey manish, no sadly due to the semiconductor shortage, to keep production moving Mercedes have had to remove some specification from cars. This isn’t something that Mercedes are wanting to do I’m sure but every car manufacturer is facing the same issue and to continue making cars, is something that they’ve all had to do. Sadly without the necessary electronics, camera and software installed at factory it won’t be able to be added afterward as Augmented Reality is not part of UK specification now. With the ground clearance, it should be absolutely fine, I’ve owned two before and had no problems. It’s only slightly lower than an A-Class sport model.
