Should have gotten the 2016 model year that has all of these major issues addressed. Revised suspension, transmission, and navigation with a push button start. Granted the 2014 - 15 are significantly cheaper than the 2016+ for this reason.

They also bumped the power up in 16. Which I think the 14-15s already made 375.

[@TheTreyVidz]

I got my CLA45 last September, same year 2014. Originally was looking to get a new one or a c43 AMG but this one was spec'd with most everything I wanted minus the carbon fiber trim and for a good price. The suspension is by far my biggest problem and then the transmission next. Completely agree, when testing driving I couldn't really tell since we weren't in stop and go traffic. I would have gone for a new c43 or a used c400 but I wanted a "true " AMG and I had known how stiff the ride was. Where I am I get a lot of attention, lots of people stare at it and give compliments, helps that I upgraded the exterior with aftermarket carbon pieces and normal cla250 around here aren't that common unless they're the absolute base model. The car sounds awesome though and is super quick. It's fun but I can't see me keeping the car for too long.

[@BoostedBunny]

Super fun. Def wish I had another car tho and use this as a fun car. Problem is there are more fun cars for the money if I'm going to have two lol

i get complements on mine it’s grey and black with the black amg wheels and black amg grill it definitely turns heads but man the trans lag kills owning the car i also own a msport 328i fully modded and bro coming from Bmw to this car makes it feel like a Toyota

[@TheTreyVidz]

@@glorysantana777 Its funny seeing this comment again after such a long time. I had the car up to just about last summer before it got totalled by someone running a red light. I found that my opinion changed a lot after that time, I really liked how reliable the car turned out to be. Never had any issues with the car. The suspension was still pretty rough, but I’ve driven a C63s and GLC63s and the ride can be jarring in those too, they make every bump feel like a bad pothole. I have a BMW M4 now and It’s been an improvement over every Mercedes I’ve driven so far so I agree completely with that notion.

[@kb9072]

Very informative. From what I've seen here I wouldn't buy one. No matter how good the car is it only takes one very bad feature to ruin the ownership experience. The delay in taking off and harsh ride is two unforgivable things.

[@BoostedBunny]

I can't believe they didn't fix it in 2018!

[@DJ.Skyhawk]

I have a 15 GLA45 (basically the same car ) and couldn't agree more about the transmission. So sluggish off the line, almost to the point of danger. Definitely something I've had to learn to adjust to (coming from 07 MINI Cooper S). I wish I had adaptive cruise, but other than that, this car/crossover/SUV/hatch is a little beast.

[@JohnFord-yp1px]

Hey, i just bought the same model, 2018, 17k miles, how has the car been holding out for you? Is there any advice or pointers you could throw my way?

[@DJ.Skyhawk]

@@JohnFord-yp1px it’s been great honestly. It’s my only car, so I don’t baby it either. 106k miles and it still drives like new. I never miss a maintenance and always do the full recommended routine each year. There are some creaks and other noises from some interior things, but as far as the engine goes, it’s a dream still. Transmission is still sluggish for city driving, but once you’re moving, it’s great. Besides daily driving, I take it to Tahoe in the winter for snowboarding every season, and it’s logged many camping trips. I even took it to burning man last year. It’s not as quiet as an E or S class inside, but the drivetrain has as much attention to detail.

I have a cla250 and I feel you on these. One thing when entering a destination though, I find it works better when you say each number out I.e. Instead of three-fifty, try three-five-zero. Other things I hate, how CLAs don't have basic things every other car on the road has. No sunglasses holder. Okay fine. No hook for coat hanger. Really? Out of all the auto makes out there, you would think Mercedes would let you hang up your suit jacket or any jacket for that matter. I know these are little things but they are expected to be found in every car.

Don't get me wrong I love my car as well but it does getting annoying when u go through tires left n right just cuz u hit a pothole.... N on top of that the biggest thing I would say is the fact it don't come with a spare TIRE... So now I gotta spend 2 to 3 hundred dollars everytime it happens ...SMFH

[@BoostedBunny]

Frfr!

[@jtjt7337]

I've got a 2016 a45 and I think the suspension is now just right. They softened it up in the FL model but added a factory option to make it stiff in other modes or directly select stiffer suspension, which I also have. I believe throttle controllers help with the off the line delay but do not completely eliminate. They help because they send a stronger throttle position signal to the ECU like for like with stock but then it's up to the DCT to take the action to go. So yeh it doesn't eliminate it, but I wouldn't want this car without a throttle controller. My biggest gripe is that particularly when cold, I get thuds on auto downshift when coming to a stop. Mainly 2-1 but can be 4-3. Coming to a slow stop = thud thud thud. It's more obvious when cold. Goes away mostly when warm. I've asked merc and they've said its normal...apparently. I'm wondering if you have this issue?

[@BoostedBunny]

Jt Jt yes ive had that issue and they updated my transmission software to the 2016 software. The 2014 and 2015 software were even worse of a heavy clunk from 2-1 which is just part of the DCT.

[@jtjt7337]

Boosted Bunny Thanks for letting me know. So the software update helped but did not completely alleviate the thuds?

[@BoostedBunny]

Jt Jt correct. I believe I was updated to the software that you currently have

[@jtjt7337]

Boosted Bunny yes I think that's likely. But I was just wondering if even after the update you still experience the thuds perhaps just softer now? Mines on the latest software as I asked for a check this year but it still does it.

[@BoostedBunny]

Jt Jt like I said above. You are correct. I still have the thud. It is just softer. It is normal and part of the transmission. The 2014 and 2015 were even worse than what you're experiencing now.

[@tylergardner5079]

The DSC is for the start stop function in these cars. If you have that function turned off then it should be fine, but the car will disengage clutch pack and gear when stopped to save fuel. (I work with these kinds of transmissions and broad spectrum automatic transmissions)

[@BoostedBunny]

I wish that was the issue. I've been to the dealer 5 times over it. They changed the transmission slightly in 2016 and they are changing it completely in the new CLA.

[@tylergardner5079]

Boosted Bunny I test drove a 2014 CLA45 AMG about a week or so ago to replace my 2012 A5. I noticed the DSC first gear lag right out of the lot. Also that you can put it in park while driving. NOT SAFE. Was leaving a light trying to switch to sport mode and hit park, stuttered to a halt. Scared the shiz outta me.

[@matthewgordon3729]

I agree with the slow start and the bad navigation. The thing I hate the most is the COMAND screen is not touch screen. It's 2018 for God's sake. I watch my passengers try to swipe through the radio stations. At least in the 2018 model there is keyless entry. But it still is slow off the mark in Comfort Mode - real annoying.

I have a 2015. Agree with all your points. Rides stiff but I'm used to it now. 1st gear lag is annoying. But all I do at a stop light is use the brake hold function. Then right before the light changes i tap the gas peddle. It engages the clutch and starts to creep then i just accelerate. The keyless entry thing is also annoying. For a 70k car. But I do have push button start. The navigation I never really use. And last about the same looks as the Cla 250. Like others have said. I threw tons of cf on mine. Changed the wheels. Have the amg side decals. Etc. In the end not disappointed in the car at all. But it wont matter cause come spring its C63 S for me lol.

I been looking at what to get next and I had narrowed it down between the 2018 Audi RS3 and the CLA 45 AMG an was leaning towards the RS3. I see a lot of people complaining about this car not to mention the maintenance which I am sure is similar on both but even tho I am warming up to the way the CLA45 looks and trying to get used to that ipod they glued to the front I think im still leaning towards the RS3. It's slightly faster and if you do a big turbo can be upgraded to 500hp and who doesn't want that. I love the way the screen goes away if I don't want to see it and the digital cockpit is just amazing looking. I will still test drive both but leaning towards the RS3 still.

Delay with the pedal when starting altough doesnt seem to be that long in sport mode 3. Side visibility is kinda annoying 4. Very slow gear changes when in blue zone with gearing, even cranking when trying to go in reverse in cold before it warms up a bit 5.

This is not what I hate by I really not a fan of keyless go. Whenever you washing the car, if you happen to have the key in your pocket, it keeps locking every time you touch the door panel, not necessary the actual handle. another incident was I start the car with the key in my jacket and then somehow I decide to change another jacket before getting in the car, it let me drive all the way to the destination without warning me "key is not detect", but once you press the stop button, of course I won't be able to start the engine.

[@jaymaster103]

Point 2 is turbo lag and not necessarily the dtc. Try race start and you will see the car shoot up as the turbos have built boost

[@BoostedBunny]

Its not the turbo lag, there is a pause before the car even moves.

[@dmtrsppps]

There are two lags involved in a transmission like that. The first is the DCT lag, which is an electronic lag. The turbo lag is different and it has to do with how fast the turbo kicks in. Now with bi-turbos where the one opens low and the other high, the T-lag is hugely improved. I believe here we have a typical DCT lag.

[@gipsyavenger9829]

Everyone says the suspension on these A Class Mercedes is so aggressive but what they don't understand is that the wheel base is so short it's like riding on Tyrion Lannister's back. When you test drive a car it should be commonplace to drive the up/down offerings so you understand the geometry and ups/downs( see what I did there?). I drove the GLK for 3 years and loved it but the thing bounced around uncontrollably at times. Moved to the GLE....all is right with the world. Longer wheelbase is typical of a more compliant ride. On a separate note: did you go from a Maserati to an entry-level MB sporty 4 banger ? < Steve Harvey voice> Dude choo' been smoking?

I hated the punishing nature of that short wheelbase. I was laughing as you were hitting imperfections in the road (like old school Subaru STI bobble-head) and the fact that you were bopping up and down. The transmission was so annoying and another reason I could not pop especially considering the price tag. I also found the car to be strangely laggy.

I have a 2014 45 as well. I agree with all your points that you mentioned... for the most part. To me, thing that absolutely cannot be overlooked, as you mentioned, is the throttle into first gear delay. Until I got used to it, I was regretting buying the car. Now that I know how to deal with it, I no longer am upset by it on a daily basis. But it is a big deal for sure. On the other end, the one thing I ddidnt totally agree with is that it looks upsettingly similar to a 250. Don't get me wrong, it can definitely be confused and missed, but so can any cars base model to their top trim / sport model. Then again, I also changed my spoiler out for carbon, deleted my chrome, and have the black carbon splitters and sills. My spec also has the black rims and red brembos which is a big deal. Overall I really do think the car looks AMG and everyday I see it, I feel like it's badass. Anyway great video. Best of luck with the car.

Yes there are actually more bad things you can say about the car but for the pedal delay, you can get a pedal box / pedal chip to fix it up, very simple

[@BoostedBunny]

Osman Oz unfortunately that does not solve the issue. Those pedal boxes you’re referring to like Pedal commander. Simply changes the gain on the pedal response. So the car thinks you’re stepping on the pedal harder. This does not change the delay from the pedal to the gear.

[@yesterday604]

Boosted Bunny Throttle is electronically controlled , what research do you need, even a simpleton can use google,

Haha my dude! Glad you can support this channel as well! I'm going to start posting training videos on the IKF channel.

[@richdouk6325]

Can’t wait bro 🙌🏽 I watched almost all your vloggs

[@Mogardie]

I like my CLA 250 because it looks like I have a CLA45 AMG lol. I was hoping Mercedes would have fixed that lag though in the AMG but guess not.

[@BoostedBunny]

Damn so the 250 has it too?

[@darienhernandez797]

I have the 2k15 Edition 1 and it has everything yours in missing. I love my CLA

[@BoostedBunny]

Darien Hernandez that’s awesome! Still one of my favorite cars ever!

Try to do a stage 1 to the gearbox it should help a lot. You can also program it to act as you want by rewriting the soft of how the gearbox changes

[@BoostedBunny]

Thinking about buying another one 2015. Maybe I'll try it then. Miss this car!

[@krs-fltutorials4487]

So you miss it? Would you recommend it?

[@soulfultaste]

Agree with (1), (4) and (5) but also i the sound system is not premium at all.

[@TheAftermath1987]

Was this the command online system? Or the basic Garmin one? I went out in a 2019 cla 45 shooting brake and it had the adaptive suspension, thought it rode ok on 19s 👌

[@IKnowFootball]

TheAftermath1987 this was the COMAND system. The shooting brake has different weight, updated suspension and different weight distribution which may make it better than the 2014

yo how is that car in the snow and in toronto. im thinking about buying one. and im confused as to to get the sport suspension or not cuz if its stiff then why get it

[@mastablastab1140]

I'm in the market for a new car. Coming from a 2011 STi. Looking at the Audi RS3, the ATS-V or this. Overall looking for a fun car so power is important and also the cabin. In your opinion, what's your go to. ATS-V sounds amazing with power but that interior is lacking.

[@BoostedBunny]

Ryan Buck def go RS3 or CLA. Both are great. I love the looks of the CLA over the boxier RS3. With half a litre more, the RS3 makes more power with a tune.

[@DaveThaBossDTB]

Audi RS3 all day. CLA ans A3 areboth entry level but Audi blows Benz out of the water. You get more tech and better performance with an RS3 than a CLA 45 AMG. Hell I took a 2017 S3 over a CLA45. Just because the suspension was sooo stiff and the car was a CLA which I hate.

[@hifi-reparatur_eu]

[@Our_feral_life]

Just sold my ghost pearl blue CLA45 shooting brake. Loved her but not practical as an estate. Going modded new Transporter highline now I think. Need to haul dogs across country, shooting brake wasn't big enough for that.

[@BoostedBunny]

Such different cars. Why did you get shooting brake 45 in the first place lol? Genuinely curious?

[@dont1401]

Got a Audi a7 (2014), 3.0BiTurbo, tunned to 400hp, a nice car, big and confy but I don't drive long rides on highway, I want a smaller and sporty car and i really ship the 45 AMG, should I switch?

[@BoostedBunny]

They are two very different cars. The Mercedes has a much stiffer ride but also much better handling. The AWD is way better in the Audi than the 45 AMG. Interior is more luxurious and spacious in the Audi but the Mercedes is going to feel way faster and a lot more fun!

[@dont1401]

@@BoostedBunny I've had enough of the luxury part of the car, I enjoy driving the car, meanwhile I can't enjoy my current A7 because the air suspension sucks on curvy roads, it's pretty fast in straight line, goes under 5secs 0-100, but the problem is this car was made for long highway drives, and i don't do that almost at all, I want a smaller car that will give me the pleasure. Don't wanna overdo it and buy an rs3 or the new s5, I want something around 30k euros and decent performances, I wanna feel good while I drive it.

[@AhmedHasan91]

thinking about getting the 2018 CLA 45, I don't know what to think now lol

[@BoostedBunny]

Get it! It's one of my favorite cars I've ever owned. Handles better than the newer generation. Honestly I like it more than my GTR for all around driving. But my GTR has a bigger wow factor.

[@AhmedHasan91]

@@BoostedBunny Thanks for the nice replay man, you earned a subscriber lol, I wish i could get the GTR now but I can't go over 70k at the moment and I don't really want older or much used car. and I have small family too

[@BoostedBunny]

I appreciate it! If you have a family you may like my other channel that's a lot bigger too! My oldest son is turning 4 years old. in about 6 months and I'll be going over a lot of youth athletic training. Just search "I Know Football" on KZbin.

[@AhmedHasan91]

@@BoostedBunny Done, Thanks a lot, I have a daughter who's turning 5 in few months and twins on the way :D next month hopefully. I am more of motorcycles and sport cars man, I still have nothing as just moved to Canada but hopefully next month will get the CLA 45, if the car conditions are good, is it ok to get with 80-100k mileage (km) or better go bellow 60 for used cars?

[@BoostedBunny]

Mercedes engines are traditionally strong and as long as the CLA wasn't modded, I definitely feel comfortable getting one with that many miles. Just take it in to Mercedes when you get and have them check it over. It's a high compression engine, don't skip on the maintenance and the car will be good to you.

[@teeserrano4799]

I have the cla250 with the amg sport package. I feel u on these dude. Especially the lag in the pedal at first . It sucks

[@adisl6659]

Anyway to fix it?

[@joesmizzy6086]

Use hold mode to sort out the delay when you put your foot on the pedal

[@invisible4405]

What is hold mode?

[@Alexander_Tong]

Definitely the suspension and the navigation system. I know your pain. Lol

[@BoostedBunny]

Right! lol.

[@hackerahmadable]

Mainly the gb is what would stop me coz im actually looking to buy one

[@premletchuman9611]

A basic lowest end car costs $100k in singapore.

[@adisl6659]

For that delay starting gear. I think you guys need to press brake and then halfway throttle let the brakes go. Maybe i think 🤔 🤔

[@Owaistcl]

I have also put a suboofer in my car. The car SHAKES when I play songs!!

[@bernardoserrano480]

You got me with the 16 year old girls lol I want one because there nice and seem fast enough but I drove a CTS-v before so I’m having issues finding another fun car I want this but you hit the nail in the head with they all look alike and cla 245 are super cheap so makes this look kinda cheap

[@mikehawk120]

That lag sucks. My 21 A35 feels dead under 2k. Will prob look into a 19 and up gently used C43.

[@jaircraftengineer5640]

Nice video, this really motivated me towards me getting my Audi A8l, before I get in & drive off in a car I'd the ability of not having to take the keys out, I'm a Mercedes fan more audi because of the S Class, but I've had an 09 A6, & that's what got me hook on keyless entry & go, I'm also in chicago too

[@BoostedBunny]

This is the only model that I know of that doesnt have the keyless entry. My 2010 c-class had it lol

[@boostedgang1843]

And no backup camera

[@LaithFaouri]

Man that gas pedal delay is so horrible ! Did you tried to fix it with tuning?

[@BoostedBunny]

So terrible. To my understanding the pedal tuning changes the gain on the accelerator but does not remove the delay.

[@favorednloved1302]

Hello. I just purchased a CLA a little over a month ago and started experiencing acceleration issues in my commute home from purchasing. I almost experienced a motor vehicle accident at least 3 times due to the accelerator’s resistance from 1st gear to 2nd gear. I came across your video regarding issues, and you along with others are experiencing a 1st gear shift delay or acceleration lag. The acceleration issue for me doesn’t happen each time I drive - only random. After cold stop, it will coast at times or resist to move. I wonder if what I’m experiencing is what you’re calling 1st gear shift delay. Does your CLA experience the 1st shift delay each time you accelerate from a stopped position or is it random? My vehicle has been in the shop at least twice now since experiencing near motor vehicle accidents with no results from the device department. Any assistance is appreciated!

[@BoostedBunny]

Yes it happens every time after a full stop

[@favorednloved1302]

Boosted Bunny Thanks for your response.
