5 Hidden Mercedes functions, tricks & features - Vol 2

[@killerhertzmercedes]

Volume 5 now available: kzbin.info/www/bejne/baGrk6qYa5KHj8k

[@johnmorris1764]

I have the owners manual and have read the manual, but your videos make things so much easier, thanks.

[@charleswildig]

Surely the purpose of "Tunnel Mode" is to *open* all the windows and sunroof when entering a tunnel. What better way to enjoy that thunderous AMG V8 roar?

[@jelenabartels1811]

In Australia we are advised to shut windows due to possibility of poor air quality.

[@PhilbyFavourites]

I never knew “tunnel mode” existed! I can’t wait till warmer weather to use it. Or perhaps you just lock everything sealed tight when you pass a group of un masked people.......

[@matt7iron]

Anyone know how to stop all my door locks from opening up when i stop engine and open my driver's door, i just want the drivers door to open not all 4 doors, yr 2000 E55

[@charleswildig]

@@matt7iron Yes, if you set your *key* to only lock/unlock the drivers door it also has the effect you are looking for = when you subsequently drive off, park and open the drivers door, it only unlocks the drivers door. I just tested it on my CLS63, and it works. To set this function on the key, move out of range of the vehicle, press the lock and unlock buttons simultaneously on the key for six seconds until the little red light on the key flashes twice. Let me know if it works for you.

[@matt7iron]

@@charleswildig i forgot to say i been using the emergency Steel key from the Fob since the remote is broken and the dealer wants 350 for a new Fob, i have the 350 but it feels wrong paying 350 for it, so i been using the Key for 6 months now, i will remember what you said when i get my Fob one day.

[@danawilliams1015]

I've owned several types of Benz in America and i did not know ANY of these. I have the E350 now and i can not wait to use all of these. My husband has the SL and i know he's going to love it too! This is extraordinary

[@hucknfrex]

Dana...for your hubby see my comment above. I have 2 SLs and there are different ways of doing the 'tunnel' trick. Furthermore, after performing the window opening from outside the car, if he presses and holds the 'unlock' button on his fob again, the roof will retract. Depending on what year his SL is, there are different requirements for this to work. In the r230 model (2009 SL550) you need to have keyless entry and a power trunk. If you have a manual trunk it will not work. You need to hold the fob very close to the square receiver window on the door handle - either door handle will do. Press and hold the unlock for about 5 seconds and the top should begin to open. you will need to continue holding the button until the top is completely down. If you release it prematurely...don't worry, just press and hold again and it will continue where it left off. To close the top, simply press and hold the 'lock' button on the fob in same proximity to the door handle. (NOTE: the square receiver windows can cause this feature not to work because of wax buildups and sensor decay over time. Because of this, the feature may work on one side of the car and not the other. In the r231 model (2013 SL63 AMG) you can open pressing the 'unlock' button on the fob as long as you are within 6 feet of the vehicle (any direction of it - you do not need to point it at the door handle as it is now using radio frequency instead of infrared. If it isn't working in yours, try replacing the fob battery. When the battery gets low, it will still unlock and lock the car, but pressing and holding the buttons renders it useless to preserve battery life. Believe me it seems weird at first, but when I got my 2013 it wouldn't work. I replaced the fob battery and it worked immediately. Good Luck Dana & your hubby!

[@fritsb8788]

Really helpfully!! I'm a regular smartass at the taxi company where I work😂😂We only have Mercedes and thanks to your videos I'm now the man to go to when you want an adjustment! Keep it up!

[@cliftonsargent1572]

If the haters are giving you crap for saving people from reading 100’s of pages then I’d say your doing pretty dam good! I just bought my first Mercedes so I will be watching every episode you have, I’ve noticed you are going over AMG equipped cars so will none of this apply to me and my base model 2012 GLK350????

[@killerhertzmercedes]

Shouldnt make any difference AMG models or not, same features for both. Cheers!

[@berendoldenburger]

For the ‘tunnel’ mode feature, you can also use the charcoal air filter button to close and/or open all the windows and sunroof. The charcoal filter button is in the exact opposite position from the recirculation button (it looks like a bold arrow passing though a filter and become an outlined arrow).

[@wernerdanler2742]

You forgot you can open or close all windows and the sunroof with the key fob. Just hold down the appropriate button. Mine only works occasionally. I'll have to try the recirculation button.

[@m.s.5317]

That option doesn't work on every year/model unfortunately

[@EXTRA300s]

Do yo have hidden functions for a MERCEDES ML (W164) I got a tip almost nobody knows about. Wen parking the car for lets say 30 minutes for shopping and it is very cold outside, you can press the RES button (engine off!), and the car inside stay's nice warm. I use that function a LOT, and it is just a very nice feature!

[@Crump1980]

Very useful tips, love the Super Mario 3 ref at 1:53

[@andrewsproson1410]

Very helpful thank you.I was worried when message on dash said indicator bulb had gone.Think it was the connection.Didn’t want to take to Mercedes to be ripped off.😊

[@MCurtisMcCoy]

These are AWESOME TIPS man!!! I just subscribed!

[@buburodriguez1]

Thank you!!!! This is so helpful!!

[@ibillyduncan3512]

YOU forgot to mention when you're measuring the oil, the car has to ground has to be level, not on am INCLINE. GREAT VIDEO !!

[@wernerdanler2742]

My 2001 e320 tells me I have to be on level ground even when I already am level. Luckily I have a dipstick.

[@Pkp4l]

If you push the brake pedal down hard while in drive, say at a stop light, the brake will “hold” until you tap the accelerator.

[@GrrMeister]

*Or press brake pedal down twice, and **_HOLD_** will be enabled, and engine will stop if in Eco-Mode. Starts immediately as soon as accelerator pedal pressed. and brake automatically disengages.*

[@cal1k]

Sir, your steering wheels is located on the wrong side.

[@cokpeotfg4fcdck601]

on the right side. only wrong side in the colonies

[@elitekyless6277]

Stupid

[@bencrosbie]

Are you one of those uneducated Americans?

[@goergeibrahim6417]

In the UK our steering wheels are on the right side and the roads on the left that's why

[@MaxsTrainspotting]

This is called the uk not the us so stop saying that because IT'S IN THE UK

[@WSVK420]

Great video brother !!! Very informative

[@graemewren4430]

Very helpful and easy to follow. Thanks

[@killerhertzmercedes]

Glad it was helpful!

[@anthonyluis4629]

Hi, Should the car read 7.9 quarts measuring with the engine running or is there another correct volume for checking in this fashion?

[@npm7019]

S Class (s430) features would be appreciated. Watched both tips and tricks videos and only found one that I did not know about, with that said I still found this entertaining and concise. Great work, waiting for #3!

[@beltrangarrote1982]

Woooooo, love the tunnel option. Thanks!!!!

[@obnxsdonky9394]

Isn't it faster to just press the auto open/close buttons and sunroof? Rather than waiting 5 seconds for them just to start moving?

[@marcox43]

Gonna see if that works on a 1986 w124

[@SuperBackhere]

@@marcox43 so does it? I tried it on my '94 w124 and didn't work.

[@marcox43]

Bekir Karakulak then it won't work probably, well, I still gotta pull the radiator out because a bolt got stuck in the camshaft...

[@edwardandrade4390]

Great video sir, I will try some of these tricks hope my USA model has these.

[@ZOE9588]

Sooo helpful, I tm tryin to find out ti change my light position because the are looking to low to the ground and at night my vision is terrible, do you know I can make them look a bit more up?? Soo looking forward to hearing from you! Thank you 😊

[@henrylong45]

Wow! So you have a CLS model with a PANORAMIC ROOF? Very nice. I have a CLS but I've never seen a panoramic roof on a CLS.

[@killerhertzmercedes]

That's not a CLS with the pano roof.

[@allwrighty100]

And which oil level are you looking for? What is too low/high and what is ideal?

[@killerhertzmercedes]

Depends upon the model, it will say in your cars handbook.

[@killerhertzmercedes]

Had to re-upload the video due to a spelling mistake and some incorrect wording :)

Can you disable the parking sensor 2007 cls 550?

[@StratmanII]

"This only works when the passenger side mirror button control is selected" - 2:15. Thanks so much for that tip! :-) I was wondering why my father's W203 C-Class' passenger side (left, like in the UK) mirror didn't dip after he had the mirror motor assembly replaced some months ago. We thought that the side mirror needed reprogramming or some sort!

[@welshamg2090]

Very useful video , .. thank you

[@killerhertzmercedes]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ElChasco_official]

The electronic oil indicator is also available in the S Class W221

[@Zipperneck.]

The MBFellatio feature on my new 2018 A Class is really chaffing my bag. Is there anyway to recalibrate the settings for a more relaxing driving experience?

[@antoma6844]

I accidentally found a little button on my Clk 220 cdi,2007 Under the centre arm rest the 2nd section beneath the phone compartment,there are 2 sprung lugs ( which click when you close it down)But directly beneath them is a smaller lug, when depressed the 2 sprung lugs lock. allowing for the armrest to not close fully giving you this second raised position,which is about an inch or so higher,with a much more pleasant driving position, Enjoy!!

I hold the keyfob open button when walking to my car, it not only unlocks it but also winds down all the windows, same when locking, keep your finger on the lock button and any windows left open will close

[@philipcooper8297]

I know some people think reading gives you cancer, but if you read the owner's manual (free online in pdf), you'd know not only these 5 notoriously known bits, but also much more about your car.

[@killerhertzmercedes]

Philip Cooper as I say in the video clearly, not everyone has the time to look through the manuals.

[@RoyVibe01]

Philip Cooper yes read the owners manual people!

[@manuelvazquez8971]

[@reflection3107]

Maybe a stupid question what should my oil level be optimally? I have a cls 500 306 hp 2005

[@killerhertzmercedes]

It should say in your cars handbook the correct amount. Cheers

OMG TY for mentioning the side mirrors adjusting when in reverse. I never understood why “sometimes” it would do it. I should have looked into it years ago. As for the recirculate air button hold, does that apply to my 2012 C300? I swear it didn’t do it but maybe I didn’t hold long enough

Hi KillerHERTZ - in my 2001 3 series BMW, I could open the car with my key and the seats would move into memory position 1. When my wife opened with her key, the seats would move into memory position 2. Do you know if the same can be done with Mercedes? I have a GL (X166)

[@CabinetFramingUK]

Marc Morley I've hear about this also for mercs. Not sure how to do it. I think the key has to be in and Turned one or two positions. Needs research

[@Megadriver]

I know every one of these, except the trunk floor hinge thing. I always thought that's how Mercedes designed the handle and I have two Mercedes... 2005 C220 and 2007 E420. I do hope I never have to use that feature tho... Cause flats and towing are not fun.

Gary Higbee Thanks for the comments, one or both of the Trunk Separator sensors (one per side) will have failed, they are located behind the taillights. You will need a replacement. As a quick fix, remove the cable and use a piece of wire to bridge the connector. Rememebr to subscribe if you haven't already :)
