    Hey there, with the tyre preasure warring you need to reset it after you have pumped you tyres to the correct preasure. Easy to do, check your settings using the steering wheel controls.
    The AUX input can be hardwired into the stereo as it has an AUX 2 input. Do you have the phone module installed in the centre consal? Or are you able to make phone calls through the stereo? As there is another way.
    You boot sounds like that because off you number plate.
    The gear changes are slow cause your not in sport mode.
    Also you can reset the throttle positioning sensor.
    The parking sensors are normal :(
    If you have allready had replies to you five hates I apologise in addvance.

    Gad tuning in Essex can remap the gearbox to speed up shifting and generally make shifting smoother. Worth a call to gad tuning (no I don't work for them).

    Owned 350cdi for 4 months now. Wouldn't swap it for anything, I totally love it, but I agree with every one of the 5 points.
    Closing the boot annoys me the most, I have the same flappy number plate but the boot just feels too light in comparison to the rest of the car.
    Bluetooth is a pain but I bought a £15 FM Bluetooth transmitter which works perfectly fine.
    Gear change is a Mercedes thing (same as the heavy accelerator pedal) , I owned a CLK a few years back and it was exactly the same. 3 point turns are annoying as it pauses longer in and out of reverse.

      Flappy plate - buy some double sided foam sticker tape and put one strip close to each horizontal end under the plates and you are served. This issue is present on more models and not only MB and in most cases it is the plastic frame that is screwed in place by only 2 bolts that simply cannot support the momentary slapping force. Fully removable with a glue and sticker removal spray if you ever need to clean it off again.
      The pedal is quite soft actually. It depends on where you set your heel. If you are leaving a gap and do not use most or your complete foot on the gas pedal then you create a lever which increases with the distance you rest your foot further away from the pedal. The pedal itself also adapts and learns your drivint style channging stiffness relative to your behavior and speed. Reason: Less jerky ride due to minor foot movement. MB is about comfort and they think about such details. Try switching to sport mode (C/S button) and try your pedal response now.

    When you drive on the highway/interstate/whatever Brits call it, your the heat will cause your tire pressures to INCREASE, not decrease. I'm sure you've figured this out by now (or at least hope so 😅). Huge respect, and glad you're making it big! Love your videos.

    my parking sensors go off when i start it and just sitting in my driveway with nothing around, or when im stopping and nothing around me either!!! Plus they don't do the multi-light "filling up" as you put it. I want to deactivate them as I detest the noises they make, plus I have never liked parking sensors and have an audio condition where noises like the one it makes kinda set me off.

    • @nudisco300
      @nudisco300 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on the model number of the system. There's several different systems fitted to the cars. Early Audio 20 systems only have Bluetooth Telephone but physically no Bluetooth Audio, Impossible to change that. Later Audio 20 had both Tel and Audio Bluetooth but Audio needs to upgraded by dealer to use.
      I think nearly all the comand NTGs have Bluetooth audio. It's all dependent on what system the car was specced with. Mine has the early Audio 20 and the only work around is using an FM Bluetooth transmitter. It's not ideal but it's better than spending £600+ on a retrofit system.
