I am really pleased with the car. The ride is nice (pity about the road/tyre noise on certain surfaces) and its great on battery range. I have had 3 other PHEVs of other brands in the past so by now I have learnt how to get the most out of a charge! Have you covered anywhere how to use the favourite button? Is it possible to add lane keeping assistant into favourites, so I could call it up easily and then temporarily switch it off without having to go through the normal menus? Really appreciate all the effort you pit into this channel!

In answer to your question, I don’t believe you can add it to favourites but did you know there is a shortcut to get to it? If you press the Vehicle Settings button in the middle of your car next to your touchpad, it’ll open up the “Quick Access” menu.

When I press down the home button or the black button next to it on the wheel and then select something it just puts the radio on the little screen next to the wheel, what on the wheel do I press for it to appear in between the 2 dials behind the wheel? I’m trying to help my mom figure it out, it’s a 2020 c300 if that matters.

It purely depends on the multimedia system in the car but I’m fairly certain on that year of car, you can put content in the middle of the screen (in between the dials, but you can’t change both dials individually) So on the steering wheel closest the driver’s door: HOME Swipe left / Right and select RADIO Press in to enter

@npoleary6 ай бұрын
Thank you! Ooo nice! Well the issue is with plug-in hybrids is that you may potentially be looking at the wrong stats and the WLTP measurements you will have seen don’t help. They’re not really built for hybrids, I’ll explain so bear with, I wrote this out to others too. When it comes to MPG readings, hybrids should also be using mpkWh. It basically depends on the journey you do. So for example, if you drove 2 miles up the road, went into the shops then drove back and the engine didn’t switch on, you will have achieved 999+ miles per gallon, because you haven’t used any gallons of fuel, just electric. Another example, same trip but if you accelerated hard at the lights just once, then drove normally for the rest of it, then your MPG might be around 300-400 MPG because it averaged out on electric for most of it. And the final example, same trip again but this time you drove there on electric and then drove back with the engine on “Battery Level” (this mode uses the engine) then your MPG might be around the 100-200 MPG mark. Miles per gallon is very tricky to work out on hybrids because there is another source of power pushing you around which throws off stats. MPG is used to measure how much fuel we use, where as electric is measured in MPkWh (miles per kWh) This is why that figure seems high on short journeys but less on longer journeys. Of course the more you run on electric and plug it in, the better your MPG will be but with a plug-in hybrid you don’t have to complete a journey.
@MartyW746 ай бұрын
@@npoleary thanks Nick, that makes sense, and had a feeling it would be something like that, most of my journeys are local short ones so can use electric for them, and i have the backup of the petrol for long journeys.

Hi Nick, I’ve found all your videos of great help. But, as someone who owns a new GLA with the 7inch smaller screen, I’ve hit a few problems. Recently, after using the on-board computer to check the oil level via the “Service” tab, I had real problems returning the screen to its previous mode without the service or other menu showing in the centre. Returning to my 'normal' speedo view seemed impossible. Studying the handbook didn’t resolve the problem for me. Any chance that you could make a similar menu for the non-premium versions, without the larger, super-size screens please? Ken

Hey Ken, thank you! Glad you love the videos! Actually it houses the same buttons on the steering wheel if you have a 7 inch screen vs the 10 inch screen.

Home, Settings and then System and I seem to recall it was the first one. If you do not have a touchpad, there are pre set themes but you can’t change the colours, so you can only change the centre dial.

I do have a problem though and wondered if you can help? I plugged in my USB stick full of songs to play but the problem is whenever I switch off the ignition and start the car again, whether it's 1 min or 1 day later the music always starts back at the beginning again instead of where it was up too when I left the car! All my other previous cars where I've played music via a stick just carries on from where the last song finished. It's getting really frustating having a USB stick with a 1000 songs on and it just hearing the the 1st few songs over and over again! Any ideas? Thanks!
@npoleary3 жыл бұрын
Hey Rog, ah perfect glad you like the videos! Unfortunately no this is the way it’s designed. When the car is switched off, it does not retain where your music left off as in Mercedes it’s down to the music player to hold that info. As it’s a USB stick, it’ll just play from the start. The only couple of things you can do are to transfer music to your phone or a dedicated MP3 player that can retain where you left off. Or potentially, just a thought you could pop the track list onto shuffle? It’ll of course play everything in shuffle but at least then you won’t hear the same songs at the start. Hope one of those two works for you 🤓
