This is one of the WORST options I have ever had on a Mercedes. I will be backing up and it shuts off, I stop for one second at a stop sign it shuts off. My Mercedes C300 2017 is so disappointing. It's like having a controlling boyfriend that you are stuck with for 4 years. I should be able to turn off the Eco stop/start feature for good or until I feel like using it. BUT NOOO I have to remember to turn it off every time I get in the car or change driving modes. I could go on for hours but I will spare you.

How do you turn it off permanently?? I have a 2017 GLS350D and we live in a semi-rural area. Everytime we get to the traffic lights in town the motor switches off and you get that moment of panic that the engine has stopped in a bad way and youll be stuck at the lights...getting a frieght like that at every blokdy set of traffic lights is stress inducing and its the most hated feature of this car that otherwise we love.
@LaurenCH52810 ай бұрын

@olivedrabgarage624310 ай бұрын
@Lin-ow7io when you jave a GLS and often switch between sports, comfort and individual mode yes its bloody annoying when the engine suddenly turns off and you're not expecting it. Everytime you switch modes it turns the e give on/off back on. We live in a rural area and have to go into city areas for work, school, grocery shopping etc. I tow a trailer with it often and comfort setting is too soft and laggy so I have to pick sports. Comfort is too unstable on some undulating country roads but great on city roads, sports mode works great when accelerating with the family or a trailer and fkr overtaking trucks/caravans etc on our country roads. That's why most of the time I'll drive in Individual mode with the sports steering and suspension and comfort engine settings. There is a noticeable difference in acceleration between sports mode and comfort and on a country road that can make a few hundred metres difference and time in the oncoming lane difference. So in short yes...for me I'd rather turn it off. Multi drops for school, the petrol station, shops...it resets everytime you turn the car back on and as soon as you stop the engine shuts off which gives everyone in the car a moment of panic because we don't know if it's a broken down car or not....then you remember the stupid switch and press it and presto....engine come back on and you take your heart out of your throat and back into your chest !!!

Xentry will let you code it to be permenatly off search for someone who codes Mercedes its just couple of clicks but it might cost a penny. You could also code better parktronic to beep before crashing the obsticel, turn off beeping for doors, seat-belt, also you can code second gear for Reverse & turn off the speed limit for reverse but can be dangerous if not careful you can flip the car. Also you can open AMG menu for temperature checks of the oil, antifreeze,gearbox. This just to name a few.@@olivedrabgarage6243

It saves nothing its bullshit so Merc can quote better mpg, if you want it off just get the switch reversed via the ECU, it still defaults to on but on is off and unlike these people who can disable it for a fee and then reactivate it for another fee you can still use it simply by switching it off.
