Hey 67pooch, sadly no all of the colours are set by Mercedes at their factory. I think it’s also a limitation of the multimedia system that gives the command too

Handy tip about the radio station presets, thank you. I use the traffic sign assist in cruise control a lot and it's very useful - the only problem is it can misread the speed limits on the back of lorries as a road sign - I've often had the car suddenly drop down to 50mph on a motorway for no reason at all - and yes, it even changed it to 80mph once and I don't think any magistrate would have believed my excuse for speeding as "the lorry did it!"

Ah awesome thank you! 🤓 Yes it can pick up signs on the back of lorries so I find it if it happens a lot, just toggle off Route Based Speed Adaption and then the speed is over to you and what you select 👍🏼

@npoleary 8 ай бұрын

@stevedavenport6028 thank you! Sadly you can’t change that, I’ve got it on mine but not seen any settings for it. Not all cars have it, depends on the specification. Make sure you have the key and kick your foot straight in and back out at the back of the car pretty swiftly without kicking your leg on the car. If you have it, the boot will open.

Hi Nick, thanks for the interesting videos, always very helpful to know the tips and tricks. We have a 2022 GLS 450 with bench seats. I wonder if there is anyway to adjust the angle of the headrest in the second row. I know how to adjust up and down but not sure about forwards/backwards. I put two car seats in the second row and the headrest is kind of in the way. Another question I have is that we bought the car in the USA, the temperature is in Fahrenheit, and I only work in Celsius, is there anything in setting that we can change from F to C? Thanks

@npoleary Жыл бұрын

Hey Jane no worries! Ooo very nice! No sadly it’s just up and down as far as I’ve seen when I filmed one before. Again for the Celsius and Fahrenheit, sadly no I’ve not seen a setting for this before when filming in any Mercedes models. Best thing to do is ask if a dealership with Mercedes technicians to see if they have the ability to change it.

@DM-qe3ci 6 ай бұрын

Nick, yes that is exactly it. What happens is when you hit the 10k miles It triggers a service reminder. On the 2022 and 23 models and older, there is a way to toggle between the buttons on the steering wheel and go into the service mode reset feature. I have purchased the service a and service b that will trigger at 10K and 20K miles. But if I keep the car longer than 20,000 mi I intend to do my own service and do my own resetting of the service message. If I have to go out and buy a ODB2 tool to reset this I Will do that. I love the technology and mbox and the non-textile approach that Mercedes has taken. But to limit us from doing our own basic service, is telling the consumer that we are not qualified to do a simple reset.😅 I live in California Southern and it gets very hot and traffic is very congested. A 4-cylinder turbo engine, going 10,000 mi even with the new Mobil 1 X2 is pushing it. That's why I am wanting to do my own service after the clock throws the service message. And of course this is after 20,000 mi. Thanks Nick for your input and also great videos.

If it’s manual, in between the lever you pull to get into the back to fold the seat forward there’s a button there to adjust it up/down

#9: A little more detail: If cruise control is not active, RESUME 1-click turns it on at the speed last set. 2-clicks turns it on and sets it to the speed limit. BUT ALSO: when cruise control is active, RESUME 1-click will change it to the speed limit. AND ALSO there is one more cool RESUME detail: If cruise control is active, and DISTRONIC has stopped you to speed zero (e.g. at a light), the car will not proceed when the car in front of you starts pulling away - you have to tap the accelerator. HOWEVER, the RESUME button will also cause your car to proceed (and does not adopt the speed limit as it would if you were moving).

Awesome tutorial Nick! Just bought myself a Benz and this was very concise. Didn't miss a beat. Question please.. How do I get my screen to display full screen when using my navigation via Android auto as it seems to only use it up but so much?

@npoleary 11 ай бұрын

Thank you! 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 (also known as NTG 6) on Mercedes 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. NTG 7 found in some new cars have higher faster processors and have one screen size leading to a full screen experience on Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Hope that explains potentially why it’s like that on some cars!

Oh Mercedes don’t pay me to make these videos 😅 these are all written, planned, filmed and edited by me 👍🏼 Mercedes me doesn’t draw that much power from the car but of course if you’re going away long term, it’s best to purchase a trickle charger to ensure it starts successfully when you’re back. It’s borderline, it might be okay for one month but any longer I’d definitely say to get one

Hey Nick thanks for the cool ticks..how can I charge my keypad and does my car have a cigarette lighter I want to use my vacuum. I have a c300 2023

@npoleary 8 ай бұрын

Most cars have USB or USB-C ports. Pretty sure there was at least one USB-C port in the middle of a C-Class when I last reviewed it. For a 12V socket, there’s one in the passenger footwell (top right).

Hey Nick! Love the videos! Is there a way I can get a US made GLE350 German maps to navigate and use the street light when I come to a traffic light? Do you know how much it may cost?

Thank you! Sadly I wouldn’t know how it works if a car has been exported. Cars are only designed for the country that they were made for so it’s highly likely Mercedes me will not work when taken outside of it’s home country and the same goes for maps too. Only thing I can suggest is get in touch with Mercedes to see if they can offer any solutions.

Hi and thanks for useful information. I am wondering when iPhone is connected to the EQE and MBUX is running too, if we want to call a person should we press the button on the steering wheel and say Hey Siri! Or Hey Mercedes? Which one ? Or if we just say hey Mercedes without pressing button call “ (command) Nick” is work?

@npoleary Жыл бұрын

No worries! 🤓 It depends if you’re using Apple CarPlay or not. If you’re using Apple CarPlay, I’d reccomend Siri but if you’re just using MBUX, stick with Hey Mercedes 😎

I would have thought that if you’re on the favourites menu, if you change the station does it not change the favourites?

Hey davesmith5656, Yeah cars are these days! They have such sophisticated systems! 🤓 Really sorry I don’t know that, out all of the car manufacturers I review and produce content on I don’t think any of them explain that. I would imagine they do most of the work in house, but of course some components are probably sourced elsewhere. For MBUX specifically I ran a quick internet search and found this if that helps? www.luxoft.com/pr/luxoft-and-daimler-codevelop-technology-platform-that-powers-the-mbux-infotainment-system I know they also use NVIDIA for their graphic chipsets too which is pretty cool! In terms of costings, I wouldn’t know you’ll have to ask Mercedes. I do own one but it’s under warranty so if anything did happen it would be covered 👍🏼

I’m pretty sure Mercedes models should retain the settings when using a profile, however it might go back to default settings if you’re using Guest. That’s what it’s like on mine anyway 🤓 If that doesn’t work just get in touch with Mercedes, I’m sure they’ll be able to help 🤓 Google Translate: Je suis presque sûr que les modèles Mercedes doivent conserver les paramètres lors de l'utilisation d'un profil, mais ils peuvent revenir aux paramètres par défaut si vous utilisez Invité. En tout cas, c'est comme ça sur le mien 🤓 Si cela ne fonctionne pas, contactez Mercedes, je suis sûr qu'ils pourront vous aider 🤓

Hey Nick, Could you do an in depth overview of the mbux system in the facelift a class? I upgraded to the facelift model and I feel like some features are missing or I can't find them. Ex: when in any other "theme" than classic, there's no quick way to change the song you're listening too. You can't show media (or any other screen) in that theme, and the touchpad was removed so you can't swipe it either

@npoleary 11 ай бұрын

Absolutely I will do soon! Got loads of content lined up for that over the next few months! I’ve noticed those things too, Classic is the only way to change song on the steering wheel. Yes that’s right Media is only on that one, touchpad was removed but you can change track a couple of ways: Say “Next Track” just as it is and it’ll change or Swipe up from the bottom on the left screen and you can change track there (hidden menu I found the other day!)
