How many Chocolate Easter Eggs can you see in this week's video? 👀
Comment Below! ⬇️
50?
The exact number that someone placed them in your video- or they wouldn't be there. 🙂
Lmao! I love the part "hey, Mercedes, what do you think of Audi?" 🤣
Really appreciate the tip about the passenger mirror dip feature.
Here a security tip I discovered for models with comfort access (personally have an E450, MY 2022): To avoid criminals copying the signal from your keyfob while in your house or nearby: Press and hold 'Lock' and immediately (very quickly) afterwards double press 'Open', and you have both locked the car AND deactivated the comfort access feature. This is indicated in the info display by a double blink from the turning indicators.
Thank, Nick. I always learn something new on every video! Happy Easter to you! 🐰
Another GREAT video, Nick! Happy Easter and thanks for keeping your great sense of humor during the videos; and always presenting your tips in a way that never makes us feel stupid. Great job!
Thank you James! Glad you enjoyed this week’s Easter Special! 🤓👍🏼
Hi Nick. Hope you had a pleasant Easter? Thanks as always for the tips. Another great video.
Very informative and witty! Love all the little Easter eggs ! Can't wait for my C43 Cab, 4 weeks to go ! From September!
Your videos are great, picked up our E Class estate the other day was pushed for time but having watched your videos, handover essentially wasn’t necessary as I had already gone through your how to videos especially those covering the MBUX - great job thank you
Ah thanks Gary! Glad you enjoy the videos! 🤓
I watched quite a few of your videos, and I love your presentation style. Not in-the-face, not too fast, just perfect.
Thank you! 🤓🙏
Another great video and demo Nick! Appreciate all the tips and tricks. Thanks
Thank you! 👍🏼🙏
Hey Nick, the last one was amazing :) Kudos !!!
You’ve taught me so much about my new ‘22 GLA250 - you are a gem!
Thanks for your eggs advise unlock door setting for driver side only for safety reason , amazing trick I got a useful egg even after Easter.
A blessed Easter weekend to you an your family Nick. Thank you for informative video as always
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! 🤓
Great video, Nick. Easter eggs galore!
Great tips Nick. Ty. Another "hey Mercedes" I use now is "open (close) the sun blind" for the pano roof cover.
Thank you! Yes you can! 🤓👍🏼
Very useful tips here! One of my faves.
You convinced me to buy a GLC and 6 months in, I am still learning new tips and tricks.
Keep going Nick and thank you 💪
Thank you! 🙏🙏🤓
Brilliant. Have a happy Easter you and your family. Thanks as ever for putting together such a great video.

Happy Easter Nick. Thanks for another great video and tips mate. Enjoy eating the easter eggs 😀
Haha I only had a couple! 😜
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Happy Easter Nick ! Thanks for another informative video - hope you remembered to take those eggs out from under the bonnet after filming 😀👍
Haha I did! Had to double check everywhere thoroughly 😅
I found one later on the floor that had escaped
The bonnet extra opening has been a standard Mercedes feature since at least the w123, possibly even earlier.
great video!!! so much info never knew about!! Love the Easter Eggs!!!
Thank you! 🙏🤓👍🏼
I’ve learned so much from your videos. Had no idea the cord under the strap under the boot was to hold it open. Brilliant
Awesome! Thanks for watching! 🙏🙏
Thanks again, Nick, Happy Easter, and a thumbs up for the new (?) intro - very nice. Enjoyed the Easter eggs tips as always. 🐣🐇
Thanks Ken! Glad you enjoyed the intro! Was just a special one for this video, did take a while to edit but I thought it looked pretty cool! 😉
@@npoleary Really nice; keep it? 🥴
Heres another "Hey Mercedes, what do you think of Landrover?" Where she will reply "Sorry, something went wrong!"
Very interesting and fun to watch. two thumbs up.
THx Nick I love my Mercedes A-class sure with all your great tips and tricks!!!

Great info in every video you put out. 👍🏻
Thank you 🙏
Hi Nick, Happy Easter! 😃 - I'll go to the car in a moment and see if I have any chocolate eggs hidden behind the gas cap. 😅 - Great video with fun details (Easter eggs everywhere - even when parking in the side mirror). - BTW, here in Germany it is even recommended to have the rescue card printed out in the car. It should be stored behind the passenger sun visor. - Best regards, Sven
Haha thanks Sven! Glad you enjoyed the video! Ah there we go! Something I didn’t know 🤓
Happy Easter to you too Nick!
Thank you! Happy Easter! 🙏
Happy Easter Everyone! 🐣
And to you, Nick.
Have a lovely Easter Sunday!
Happy Easter Nick🙏 Don’t eat all those Easter eggs all at once!! 😂😂 Very clever idea this week. Well done.
Awesome Nick 👍🏻
thank you again for these tips - I have just set up driver door only opens when remote unlocking ✔️
Great video nick. kudos... Greetings from Singapore.
Thank you Daniel! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you Nick ❤️
No worries! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Happy Easter Nick to you & your family
Thank you! And you! Happy Easter! 🙂
Thanks Nick! 😊
Thanks for watching! 🙏
Many thanks for the tip on how to cancel the commuter route. It somehow got enabled on my B-Class and it has been bugging me for several months. Keep up the good work.
No worries David! Thank you! Glad you’re loving the videos🤓
Great tips!!
great video!
Thanks
Thank you! 🙏
i am owning an gle 300 2022 here in india was confused with lots of things ur videos are truly helpful for learning thanks keep posting..cheers..
Ah thank you! Glad you enjoy them!
I have learned so much from these videos.
Thank you! 🤓🙏
That’s so funny . For got my phone at home one day and was trying to find ‘hey Mercedes’ Easter eggs … never occurred to me to ask it about Audi 🤣
Hey Nick . . . Love your videos.. thank you for your help on so many issues. I was on a trip last week and discovered "STOP AND GO ASSIST". Have you discussed that before? I would love to hear your explanation of the feature.
Hey Gary, yes I think I briefly mentioned it in my Driving Assistance Package video although Stop and Go Assist does vary slightly from model to model. It just allows the car to remain ready to drive forward for a short time if the traffic moves. But if you’re there for a while then it’ll remain there until you press the accelerator
I really enjoy your videos.
Thank you! 🙏🙏
Excellent video yet again. Brilliantly informative and presented with clarity and just the right amount of humour.
I really like these , keep up the good work!
Happy Easter!
Thank you Stu! Glad you enjoyed the video! 🤓😊
The emotion start works best when the engine is already warmed up. so if you remote start the engine, allow it to warm up - when you get to open the car door to jump in, the engine turns itself off. now hold the paddle, start your engine, listen to the pops and bangs, and don't forget to give it a few revs to listen to more pops and bangs before the exhaust flaps close.
Thankyou 👍👍👍👍❤️
Love your videos always finding new tips and tricks… one thing I would have found useful and my local dealers sale team didn’t know and I could find on here was with the 2021 GLE boot seats there is a little trick to flattening them they are spring loaded so you have to pull back and then release the catch… i spent many an hour struggling until a tech guys in the garage took a look!
Thanks James! 🤓🙏
Ah yes the release is the plastic part at the top left/top right. Is that the bit you meant? To flatten the seats?
@@npoleary yeah although if you just pull that nothing happens in fact it feels like the plastic release will snap and when it’s a new vehicle 💩😆 however if you pull the seat back firmly and release at the same time it works 🥳 but nowhere could I find this and even when I did find a video it said nothing about that and as I say a number of the chaps in the dealership didn’t know this trick just told me to go to TH-cam (even the online manual doesn’t say)
@@npoleary congrats on the 50K well worth it 💥🥊
Thanks Nick Old mate
Ha ha, easter eggs everywhere 😄
Awesome again Nick thanks. I learned the purpose of that red light on the mirror on my EQC. What would I do without you? I didn’t find any Easter Eggs hidden anywhere :( - Happy Easter.
Thanks Jay! Glad you enjoyed the video! 🤓
Happy Easter!
Great video
Thanks
1:53 - Imagine a car thief trying to break into a new Mercedes and setting the alarm off and they'd see this... it's like the Mercedes-Benz car alarm disco!
😅 yup!
@nick O'Leary, you can roll all your windows down from the key remote. Just click the unlock, release then press and hold down your unlocked for a few seconds and the windows will go down. The same if you want to close them too. But it would be the lock button.
You can on some models, most of the new ones you can 🤓👍🏼
Great video as always. Would Emotion start work on an A180 AMG 😁🤔
Bonnet arms extending for more access 👍 every day is a school day.
Great vid as always. Can you do a vid covering multibeam headlights, and there uses please?
Thank you!
I did a month ago 👀

Thanks for the great video! But now I have big taste for chocolate eggs :-)
Eclass 350d coupe 2 door 2016 plate sept- tricks and hints my first mercedes benz
Good video, those of us who have new C-Class with MBUX 2 would love to see tricks and tips. Greetings.
Hey Fran MG, thank you! Got that on my list, I’ll cover it soon!
Thanks Nick. Great video. One problem I’ve found is my boot (AMG A200 saloon) keeps opening when the keys are in my pocket. Is there a way of disabling the boot open function? Thanks.
Hey Slipply Slayer, sadly not no. I’ve had that happen before but I did have a lot of keys in my pocket and I’m guessing one of the buttons was accidentally pressed.
Happy Easter 🐣
Happy Easter to you too! 🤓
Eggs cellent 😂
Hey Nick happy Easter and thank you again for a great video. Do you know if the commuter route feature is also available on NTG 5.5? Thanks!
Happy Easter! No worries! Glad you enjoyed it! No sadly it’s just on MBUX that feature
@@npoleary OH well ill just have to upgrade then :) Thanks for the reply
Another good video Nick. Interesting since a downloaded Apple Car Play (at great cost not free 2018 A class) Hey Mercedes won’t call anyone. I have to hold up speak button for Siri to do it. I guess Apple Car Play auto starts I’ll have to check settings. Happy Easter.
Hey Stuart, thank you! Yes that’s right, Hey Mercedes is an MBUX feature so if you’re using Apple CarPlay you’ll need to use Siri 🤓
Technically it is possible to use Hey Mercedes but it’ll be a bit limited while Apple CarPlay is running.
Was hoping I’d get the additional sound on my exhaust but luckily no. Thought I would, especially as I have sports mode 🤷🏽♂️
Watching your videos while waiting for the the delivery of my CLA 250e (hopefully end of may, ordered it July 2021). Learning so much the dealer won’t have to tell me much during the handover!
Ps halfway the video a repetitive ticking sound appears that stays. Can’t say if it’s music but it’s a bit disturbing
Hey Marco, thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video! Ooo hopefully you won’t have to wait long!
Yes it’ll be the background music, since my very first videos from feedback, I’ve turned it right down so it’s very low.
Love your videos Nick. I'm a Brit in the US with a GLC. The seat always seems to fail on the Easy Entry/Exit. Forums full of other MB drivers with the same issue. Do you know of any tricks or updates that fix this??
Local dealer haven't resolved it.
Hey ChrisUKvids, sadly no I haven’t heard of this before however I know that it only works in certain seat positions. For example it doesn’t work for me as I’m quite tall, the seat won’t go back any further. It’s mainly aimed at smaller drivers, it’ll move the seat further back to help them get out.
I had to use the sos 🆘 when someone in their 20 year old defender went into the back of me at 50mph! What a nice mess that made, the kicker was not a scratch on the defender due to a masssive winch bar he’d put on the front.
Hi Nick, very useful video again.
My wish is that you make a short video explaining the body air suspension feature, along with its dedicated button located on the side between the driver and the passenger (close to the seatbelt extension button), which is supposed to higher the car (or lower it ?). My new E200 coupé has this feature but I didn't fully understand the dealer's explanation how to use it (or if you find this topic is not worth for a dedicated video, I'd be thankful if you could write a few explanation lines about this feature, it would help me a lot).
Thanks and cheers,
Kim
Thank you!
I wasn’t planning on making a video for it because it’s extremely rare on Mercedes in the UK. Most cars here have standard non adjustable suspension but then selected models like SUV’s or higher end models do have adjustable suspension.
However it’s quite easy how it works, depending on the spec of your E200 Coupe, most commonly DYNAMIC SELECT is the thing that changes it and you can confirm this, when you change it, have a look at the top of the screen and you can see what it changes.
If it has a picture of a spring when you change it (Comfort, Sport & Sport+) then it’ll do this:
Comfort:
The suspension setting is comfortable
The vehicle is set to the normal level
When driving at speeds of approximately 125 km/h or above, the vehicle is lowered.
When driving at speeds below approximately 80 km/h, the vehicle is raised again
Eco:
The suspension setting is comfortable
The vehicle is set to low level -1
The vehicle is not lowered any further if you are travelling at higher speeds
Sport:
The suspension setting is firmer
Sport+:
The suspension setting is even firmer.
Some models also have a button to raise or lower the car, just in case you need a bit more ground clearance.
@@npoleary So, with this feature, the firmness of the suspension (more or less firm) is decided by choosing the corresponding "Dynamic drive profile", right?
And the button between the driver and the passenger, with a symbol "car+arrow up" would only be used to higher or lower the car, and won't affect the firmness of the suspension, did I understand correctly?
In which driving conditions would I need to press that button to higher the car? Our to lower it?
Cheers, Kim
As long as when you change DYNAMIC SELECT you can see a picture of a spring on the top, then yes it will change with it at the same time.
Adjusting the height is only needed if you need extra ground clearance, going off road or if you need to manoeuvre onto a kerb or something
Thanks Nick. All clear.
Is ir possible to amend the preset position that the left hand mirror defaults to when using it to look at the kerb when parking?
Yeah you just choose where you want the mirror to go and it’ll remember it for next time. No saving needed as it does it automatically 🤓
Niceee!!
Happy Easter
Happy Easter Rio! 👍🏼🤓
Hey Nick, is it possible for you to have one video about - Must have accessories in the car (e.g. entertainment, safety, applications, cleaning items, fragrances etc/ ) ? I mean I sure you must be having an opinion about few particular things which your car does have.... I would like to know what u think about accessories... never saw any video from you sort of that?
Thanks for the suggestion! Actually got that on my list of potential future videos! Might cover that in the future! 🤓
Great tip again Nick. Can you me I have a A250e saloon. When I put my key in my pocket my boot opens. I know my pocket may tight or some other maybe in my pocket. But it doesn't take much for the to open the boot. Many thanks Hamish Wilkinson.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Sadly you can’t turn the key off so the boot button will always be live.
I have had that happen before when I’ve had quite a few keys in my pocket etc and I’ve bent down
@@npoleary thank you . Look forward to next week's video. Happy Easter.
Hi Nick, could you do a video of the reversing assist with a trailer attached?
I would love to! But sadly not seen it in the UK and my driving licence sadly doesn’t cover towing
I’ve heard of it before and it sounds pretty cool!
I can set my passenger mirror to automatically dip when reversing and thats on a gla 200 2019 plate.
Hi Nick, love your videos 🙌🏽
Quick question if you don’t mind me asking, what does “Over-The-Air vehicle update” means on the Mercedes me app? Been like that for days 🥴
Thank you 🙌🏽
Hey Alessio, ah that’s things like Map Updates, module updates and even infotainment updates in the cars 🤓
Thank you 🙌🏽
Hi. Nick great video.. i got the 2022 GLC in November still waiting on a chip for the Mercedes me app hoping you may no more about the chip to be out for the new car? Thank you for you time donna
Hey Donna, sadly no I wouldn’t know, I have heard of this but as the semiconductor shortage is still ongoing worldwide, I don’t know when it’ll ease and go back to normal.
@@npoleary thank you for getting back to me and i love your video’s
Hi Nick,
Can you tell me, if it´s possible navigate a GPX route in the MBUX navegator, made elsewhere in anoher computer program ??
Can you make a video based only on navigation ??
Happy Easter!
You can send destinations from the Mercedes me app to the car 🤓
Tip and Trick number 3 from this video: th-cam.com/video/ZROT4BlEnoA/w-d-xo.html
Where do you locate the interior color code on a 2020 GLE350? Thank you!!!
It’s a 3 digital code located on the chassis number on the driver’s door sill. I think it was one of the bottom ones
i like this video
Hi Nick. Today is Good Friday and Sunday is Easter 🐣. What about the easter egg about the boot opening height adjustment? Happy Easter.
Hey Kenneth Happy Easter! Yeah I did think that but I always upload on a Friday, so two days early! 🤫
Absolutely! Although I have covered that one before on a previous video 😅
@@npoleary a big thanks as always.
a brilliant presentation as always......heres a question for a merc expert.........Im buying my 4th new coupe and mentioned to the dealership that all the others steered into the left side if I let go of the steering wheel and I had been told its normal and factory set..........did you hear this/does it matter? is this as crazy as it sounds, would like to hear your opinion
Hey AG, thank you!
It’s not so much on the actual car, most cars experience this due to the camber on UK roads but if it’s been checked out by a technician, I’m sure it’ll be fine 🤓
Dear Nick,
I have a 2019 E300. I saw your video about the cruise control being able to read the speed limit signs on the highway if you move the resume button upward twice. I have the /symbol and another icon to the left of the /symbol.
Will my vehicle read these speed limit signs and adjust speed accordingly?
Many thanks,
Dale Bailey
P.S. I love your videos, they are so informative; they’ve helped me a lot. Didn’t know all the things this car is capable of!
Hey Dale, ah it depends on the specification of the car. Some have Speed Limit Assist and some have Traffic Sign Assist.
Speed Limit Assist uses Sat Nav data where as Traffic Sign Assist utilises a stereo camera.
So depends on what you have, you can usually see what you have in Settings, Assistance in there.
Glad you’re enjoying the videos!
