For me acoustic lock is actually good as it only makes the slight beep noise if all doors/boot of your car is completely closed. For example if a door is left just slightly ajar then the acoustic lock won't sound but you will hear the doors lock. It's like an indicator for if your car is completely secure when you lock it.

[@ciccioig8571]

Exactly … it’s also great to find your car in big parkings.

For the people saying they cant afford one: Work hard and you will. I had the same mindset but One thing I was told is that throughout your life, you will always be paying on something so why not get what you want.. it made sense to me because I been working two jobs since 18 years old and yet still didn’t have everything I wanted soo now year 2022, I am now purchasing a 2022 Mercedes C class C300. Good money management can help pay bills plus you will find ways to pay your bills because you wouldn’t want to lose your car, house, etc etc

Well said IdgalShae, I grew up with just my mum and brother and we will very poor. it’s taken me 10 years of hard work to get where I am today.

acoustic lock noise (11:30) is really useful for finding your car in a multi-story car park - unlock and lock and you hear the beeper!

[@conormcgregor5460]

And a life alert is good for old people who get cold or fall down in the shower frequently. If ya can't remember where yeee left your car yeee shouldn't be fooken driving.

[@ruthwilson539]

I think the acoustic lock is also for if you’re in a car park and can’t remember exactly where you left your car. They use that a lot in the states with their massive parking lots, my Accura did that when I lived there.

[@davidrosner5967]

Here in the US, I'm driving an older '14 E250 4Matic Bluetec. Because it's a diesel, the DEF Tank replaces the spare tire. So, it came with Fun Flat Tires. After my second sidewall blowout I pulled them off and put on non-run flats. The important piece I believe you left out of your video (If you don't have a spare tire) is to have an emergency air compressor & fix a flat can. I use the Slime Kit that has both in a tidy zipped package. My two step recovery from a flat is to use the Slime unless it's a side-wall blow out which then, I dial up my (24 hour) AAA Road Service. It's a reasonable back up plan. My wife's X5d also ran on run flats. I replaced them with non and put the same Slime Kit in the rear space under the lid.

@@ABAUTOAMG hey Adam. I'm picking up the car in a couple of days and the Mercedes dealer is asking me if I want a ceramic paint protection. Do you think it's really worth it, based on your experience? And now on a 5 year old car? thanks and enjoy your Aston!

[@ABAUTOAMG]

@ErwanYTube Hey Erwan, A ceramic coating is great but I’d avoid getting it done at a main dealer. I don’t want to knock main dealers but most simply don’t have the time to do it properly. You’re much better off getting it done by a professional detailer. They will take so much care and properly prep the car and the coating will be better and last much longer 👍

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Also it’s never too late. If anything now is a good time as a good detailer they will polish out any light scratches (ones that are hard to see) and swirl marks before they apply it and the car will look amazing. Il probably be having the Aston Martin done soon 👍

[@Maxx61]

Solid video but just a few comments on your gap insurance recommendation. It should be noted that if somebody puts a fair amount of money down on the car, gap insurance is not required because the "gap depreciation" has already been absorbed with the down payment. Normally if somebody trades in a vehicle with equity equivalent to a 10- 15% down payment or if they simply put that equivalent of money down, they should be in an okay position to pass on the gap. Something else to consider is most folks roll the gap insurance into the payment so they're financing the gap insurance for likely 60 to 72 months at the loan's interest rate. The last major car I purchased that needed gap, I passed on rolling it into the payment and found a cheaper price on the open market. Paid with a credit card offering 0% financing and knocked it out in 3 months for no finance charge. In the end I saved about $200 which paid for a new set of custom floor mats 👍

[@driveguy]

That run flat tyre issue only applies for AWD cars. Common on the C and GLC. Due to the geometry not being correct from merc. If you want to see it, put a gopro on the wheel arch looking at the wheel on full lock. You'll see it skip. Intrigued to see how the MPS tyres reduce it. Great video man. Really like the tip on double clicking the lock. That's a must know for any new merc these days!! Cheers.

Hi, I'm new to the world of cars and recently acquired my first Mercedes AMG, equipped with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 21-inch tires. I've noticed it makes a noise similar to what's shown in this video when turning at low speeds with the wheel fully locked. I've received various explanations - some say it's due to the low profile of the tires, others mention the Ackerman effect. When I consulted Mercedes service, they informed me it's normal. I'm also located in New York City, where it's currently winter with temperatures averaging 20-40 degrees Fahrenheit. I'm not sure if the cold weather is affecting the tires or if these tires are specifically designed for summer use. I'm uncertain about what steps I could take to resolve this issue

[@MarcusLeonard307]

Unfortunately, I did not know or realize how horrible run-flat tires are until my wheel cracked.. Having never experienced this, you are spot on about getting rid of those tires ASAP because the cost AMG wheels is so much.

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Agreed :( The whole point is that you can run them for some miles if you get a flat too but can you imagine going over a pot hole while driving with one of them flat? alloys would not stand a chance. I just avoid run flats as much as I can now.

[@juergenroesch6400]

great video! Missing: adjust passenger side wing mirror dip angle for reverse, which helps seeing your passenger side rear wheel during parking to avoid scratches. Also: there are dash cams available that are built into the lower plastic cover under the rearview mirror - available in the same plastic colours as the original cover, though surface looks a bit cheaper. Just pop out that plastic cover, connect the cable on the dashcam to the rain sensor plug and push the new cover (that has the camera built in) in. There's a TF card slot on the side and 2 small buttons on the bottom to turn on/off or take a quick photo. It also has a connector for a rear camera - if you have that, run the wire along the headliner, but pay attention to not get in the way of the curtain airbags with the cable. If you're driving an estate/wagon and want the rear camera on the hatch then it gets a bit tricky to pull that through the rubber hose connecting the body to the hatch, but it's doable (use some grease for the cable to slide through with less resistance).

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thanks for taking the time for the detailed write up. Very helpful! I'm sure this will help lots of people too.

[@juergenroesch6400]

@@ABAUTOAMG my pleasure. I've made numerous small and mostly invisible changes to my E63S Estate/Wagon and the less obvious the mod the better. As it's not a cheap car I did want the additional benefit of a dashcam, yet did not want it to be obvious. So being able to find one that is part of a replacement plastic cover under the rearview mirror was perfect. Getting the model that plugs into the rain sensor was genius as there's no cable work to be done - unless you add the rear camera as well. The dashcam sets a recording to "do-not-overwrite" when a crash is detected (accelerometer). Downside: this one only records while the ignition is on, so if someone dings your car while parked at Tesco, you don't have that recorded. Some other cameras do. While the car is parked a snapshot is taken every minute or so except if the accelerometer detects an impact in which case it records and saves permanently. Some cameras also have a GPS logger which also uses the GPS time stamp. There are now also 360 degree 3rd party camera sets with 4 cameras.

Bought a 2013 c300 sport a month ago. I ask if they could pick me up so I could test drive before I sign to buy (and not be stuck getting the car I drove there home), they arrived and car look gorgeous. I was slightly worried I would have issues adjusting to the 4matic (all wheel drive), but honestly, it just felt.. good. Hell it even smelled good haha. After 2 weeks of owning, it was time for Sadie to get a wash. That’s when I noticed a few things. The dealership does such a good washing/waxing it’s hard to see it until you wash, but the front driver-side bumper has slight damage to it (mainly underneath), like someone tried wheel parking a concrete parking block, the hood has these tiny paint chips and small... I don’t even know what they are honestly. Like acid misted very slightly and took the color away in tiny circles, rims have tiny knicks aswell 😭. I personally don’t care about others seeing this, because you can’t unless your like a foot away, but I know its there. And i think about it everytime I see the car now lmao. Gonna suck paying to fix all that... Since purchasing, put 2.3k miles on it, and over-all opinion: Buy one. 100%. No older than 2012. If you do buy older, buy pre 2004. 2006-2011 ALOT of issues. 2012-2014 they tried to make up for the previous reviews on prior C-class models. Lastly: BEFORE YOU BUY - Find a Mercedes Dealership and ask if they provide a “Pre-Purchase Inspection”. They will try to get you when you settle up, but it should be 75$. Period. And if you got time, use the bathroom. It’s one of the nicest bathrooms Iv ever been into. Yes. A bathroom. Snake skin black walls, marble sink and toilet bowls, since like a clear gloss gold marble.... I honestly felt bad using any of it. So I wiped the sink where water splashed a little 🤭 lol and I got my first oil change done there after the first week. Don’t do it (unless you really like the bathroom or have extra dough to blow). It was 256$.

I get difference in performance and comfort, but I also get the safety issue by not changing a tire by the side of a road. All in all your videos are really informative. Next time I am going to watch your tips on my phone while sitting in my car so I can immediately put them to use.

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Hi John, Thanks for your comment. Although I much prefer non run flats I can appreciate that they still have there benefits and it sounds like they have worked well for you :) I'm glad you are enjoying the videos thanks for watching!

once a tyre goes though Johnny, you'll be driving on the rim.

[@MarcusLeonard307]

@@TheBlueskyson Yea, and any pot hole can cause serious damage because there's little absorption of the force to the tire. It kills the wheel!

[@ibmsuk1]

I have a used E class 250 AMG coupe with run flats on the front and they’re spot on. Each to their own I suppose

[@mjc3005]

I picked up my E 450 Coupe yesterday and have noticed the ‘grabbing issue’ when pulling on and off my drive way. Love the tip for getting rid of this by ditching the run flats, as it’s super annoying. But what do you do if you get a puncture without run flats as the car has no spare wheel? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Hi Matt, if your car is under warranty you should have free roadside assistance with Mercedes, theres even a button for this in some cars. Even if the car is out of warranty if it has been serviced by mercedes themselves every year you should have this service, it rolls on. I'm not 100% sure so I'd check with your dealer with your car. If I'm unlucky and get a flat il be calling them for a free tow or fix hopefully. To be honest I'd worry about cracking my alloys driving on a flat, even a runflat.

23Hamlet24 First things first. Learn how to use launch control, then go back a few times just to learn about all of the new technology and how to use it. Me: Things I haven’t done/learned on this beast, at least not yet. AMG GT63s Great video👍

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Amazing car mate! Enjoy it and take your time to learn all its quirks and features :D

[@JEreturns]

Nice. Very informative especially the Faraday pouch. It is also worth advising that if the spare key is kept at home, try and store so as to maximize the distance to the car.

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thanks John, great tip too!

[@ashleyheffernan551]

Thanks for the tips!! I receive my car in about a week! I will be rewatching this video.

[@ABAUTOAMG]

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching and congrats on your car! Hope it all goes well!

[@TmanSnaps]

When I got my new car I didn’t check the wheels and ended up driving around for like a month without one of the lug nuts on my front passenger wheel. Also over a year later and haven’t called the dealer to set up Mercedes Me lol

[@KingClipKing]

Thanks. Picking up my Mercedes today.

[@queenie4837]

Thank you so much for those very informative tips. I'm picking my car up next week so will set about adjusting and readjusting. You are spot on about run flats tyres. I can't stand them, they cost me an absolute fortune!

[@ABAUTOAMG]

You are welcome! I hope the pick up goes well. I've just uploaded a new video with 35 Mercedes tips and tricks that you may find helpful once you have your car too! :)

[@chocolatechampagne6100]

Amazing. Very well done. I've taken note of all these for when I pick up my C200

[@waynesibanda4280]

That tire info took me a long time to figure

[@rwaddell76]

Yes. Can you please explain more on why to ditch the run flat tires?? I don’t really understand what the benefit is??

[@totom5095]

Brilliant, great content. Just bought a Mercedes approved so delighted to have found a useful site to follow. 👍 🙏🏻

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thanks Toto, Congrats on your new Mercedes. I'm always working on tips and tricks so lots more videos this year :)

[@christopherpegg1141]

I’m currently looking at getting a “new” car. Unfortunately I can’t stretch to brand new but I’m looking at used and these tips are all really great and useful. Some I do already and have done since my first car but some of these I haven’t known about or done before. Really useful. Many thanks.

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Thanks for the nice comment Christopher, glad you found the video helpful. Good luck in your hunt for a new car :)

[@senaholiz]

Collecting my C200 Premium line on next week, I will apply these tips, thanks

[@MrSlav77]

hahaha ......SPORT+ I cant wait for my little one to experience that, just about to go get me first Mercedes after 8 years of BMW.....I guess we all grow up and go for more and more comfort but your video is great to show some of the tips and import features of Mercedes brand in very clever and funny way. Definitely will check rest of your's videos and cant wait for those guys from Main Dealership to deal with my very strict control of car I'll pick up in few days 🤣🤣

[@TheAftermath1987]

Great video, I turned the acoustic lock off straight away on mine, I think the staff at MB have it on so it also helps them find the right car in the lot lol. You thought about tuning yours at all? I had my A45 remapped a couple of weeks ago and it pulls so much better now 👍

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Ah good point! That must make life a bit easier for them to find the cars. I have thought about an engine modification but I keep backing out due to worries about voiding my warranty. It's a tricky one.

[@nabilahmed7097]

[@oliwyatt]

I think this is all great as are the other videos. I’m seriously in the market for a facelift 43 or 63. Prices have shot up during covid. I’m interested to know if any of these mods will impact your warranties? Such as the dash cams or ceramic coating. Really great content. So thank you 🙏

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Hi Oliver, yeah prices in the used market seem to be all over the place at the moment. Warranty should be safe with dash cam if its properly fitted, ceramic coating absolutely safe too and will add value to the car. Thank you for your kind words too, glad you are enjoying the content!

[@Raziel_91]

Hey man - not having seen the video yet, i can tell you that dash cams or ceramic coating doesn’t void warranty. I’ve had them on all my more expensive cars, like the M2 and current C63s AMG. I’m selling my 2016 C63s now, and getting a 2016 A45 AMG. (I know, going from a V8 to 4pot.. but i’m not letting my wife drive the C63! :p) - i’m gonna get the A45 coated right away.

[@alfschneider8241]

Just picked up a brand new c43 coupe, getting it wrapped in satin PPF this week 🤟🏻!

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Ah nice! Love a satin finish! What colour did you go for?

[@aaronpoisson]

I picked up my c43 late last year, but it was used and has several dents, and some interior stains. My car is with Mercedes right now to pull all the dents and fix the stains. The dents are subtle but there. I can't wait until these issues are squared away so i can start to add my mods this Spring and get her ready for Summertime!

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Ah! Hope the car comes out nice and you can enjoy it over the Summer. Welcome to the C43 owners club :)

[@gt63s_]

Hi, I'm new to the world of cars and recently acquired my first Mercedes AMG, equipped with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 21-inch tires. I've noticed it makes a noise similar to what's shown in this video when turning at low speeds with the wheel fully locked. I've received various explanations - some say it's due to the low profile of the tires, others mention the Ackerman effect. When I consulted Mercedes service, they informed me it's normal. I'm also located in New York City, where it's currently winter with temperatures averaging 20-40 degrees Fahrenheit. I'm not sure if the cold weather is affecting the tires or if these tires are specifically designed for summer use. I'm uncertain about what steps I could take to resolve this issue

excellent video! will get myself one for christmas.. any particular reason you chose the C-Class ??

I think you should also check that the wheels have been correctly aligned. Get the system readout from the Dealer to satisfy yourself
