Hey everyone, thanks so much for joining to watch this week’s video LIVE (even when the football’s on! Bad planning on my part 😅
Message me in the live chat at the top of the page for an almost instant reply! ⬆
Hey nick question I have a 2021C300 and I like the new ambient light colour that they have now is there a app or a website that I can get those newer colours for my car ?
Hey 67pooch, sadly no all of the colours are set by Mercedes at their factory. I think it’s also a limitation of the multimedia system that gives the command too
I have a 2020 GLC63, and do believe I have some of those features.
Also, you don't have to pause after saying "Hey Mercedes" to wait for car to acknowledge. You can right away say what you want without waiting.
No millenial pause needed great!
Great tip!!
That means, I guess, you also have to leave the middle letter “T” out of the words “important” and “mountain”?
Thank you for your videos! By the the time I left the dealer with my first Mercedes I had forgotten 90% of the things he told me about all the features lol. That first drive home was quite interesting to say the least. Love my GLC 300 and will be a Mercedes buyer for life!!
Ah awesome! Thank you glad you’re enjoying them! I’ll keep them coming! 🤓
So did I!!
Hey Nick, you're a legend!!
Thanks for all your vids, keep them coming. I found yesterday, if you're sitting in the passenger seat, and call up Hey Mercedes, and request to turn on heated seat, mercedes knows the voice came from the passenger seat and will enable passenger seat heating!!! Bloody awesome..
Thank you! 🤓👍🏼 glad you’re enjoying them!
Yeah it’s pretty clever MBUX! 👀
Hey Nick, thank you so much for all your tips and tricks!! Owner since 2 weeks of a brand new GLA 250e, I'm so glad I discovered your TH-cam channel! Even if English is not my native tongue (I'm a Belgian living in France), you manage to explain everything so clearly that it is completely understandable for me! One day I was nearly mistaken by asking "Hey Nick" in stead of "Hey, Mercedes "😀 ! Hope you will never stop telling us all the "secrets" of this wonderful car! Have a nice day!
Ah awesome!
Thank you! Glad you’re enjoying the videos! I’ll keep them coming!
I honestly learned something…..lol thank you. I have a GLE 450 AMG and it’s different from my BMW that I previously owned. It’s so many tricks to the Mercedes.
MBUX vocal commands are great, they can turn on/off A/C, de-ice windscreen and close air recirculation so you can avoid the smell from the truck exhaust in front of you without touching anything :)
Always great videos!
Thank you for sharing!
Just bought my first Mercedez, a 2023 C-300. This channel has helped so much with MBUX!
Thank you! 🤓👍🏼
Cheers Nick .. Always find out more stuff about my car that I never knew watching you blogs .. keep it up mate.
Thank you! 🙏🙏
Big thanks for the tips!! Nice one with being able to change icon position on home screen and radio station !!
Thank you! I’ll keep the vids coming!
I wasn't aware that I could shut all the windows and sunroof by just holding the handle button, thx again Nick.
Once again, thanks for your help. Saving the current location was my favourite. It’s getting to the point where Mercedes-Benz dealers should set up classes in how to do stuff. It could even generate sales for them.
No worries! I’m hoping to do some more tips and tricks and tutorials soon, but I’ll happily keep them coming as long as people enjoy them and my local Mercedes continue to let me film stuff there!
Thanks, Nick! Keep up the good work!
Thanks Nick for another tips and tricks video. I’m always on the look out for your Friday videos :)
Thank you! 🙏🙏🤓
Hi Nick,
I have just taken delivery of a new GLA 35 AMG. Amazing car, with so much stuff. Your videos are incredibly helpfully, keep them coming.
Oooo very nice!
Thank you! I’ll keep em coming!
I enjoy the videos, quite informative.. I know now what features and what services are available on MBUX. Thanks
I’m waiting on my CLA 200 to be delivered from the factory, glad I found this channel, my first Mercedes’ so I have no clue about the mbux system. Cheers!
Ooo very nice! Thank you! 🤓🙏
Thanks for your videos - I'm learning so much about my A250 hybrid - you're a star. I'm semi-retiring now after 25 years as a painter decorator - and my daily drives have been work vans - this is my first luxury saloon for that time and I'm loving it. I never thought I was that bothered about cars - until I got this! Just gotta get to grips with android auto (which is a bit clunky) and I'll be sorted!
Awh thank you! Glad you’re enjoying the videos!
Ah very nice indeed!
Hi Nick, greetings from Italy. Getting my new GLE 400d 4MATIC Premium Plus AMG line in few weeks. Thanks for all the info you’re providing us, simply amazing.
Ooo very nice! Thank you!!
Could've just said you're getting new gle instead boasting exactly what you're getting. I'm sure Nick isn't impressed.
Keep it humble mate 😂
Hey nothing wrong with letting everyone know the package (premium / premium plus)
Basically means more specification and more gadgets to play with 👀
After many hours of driving I’ve discovered that temperature and controls for it can be displayed on the MBUX! Touch temperature on the display and it will pop a new screen with fans, temperature and Auto Mode, looks very sleek on my GLC💖
Thank you so much for these very informative videos. It has helped me navigate the new system on my Benz
No worries! Thank you! 🙏
Thanks once again Nick for more super points ! Brilliant.
No worries! 🤓👍🏼
Keep it coming Nick... thank you
Great info as always Nick. I have a 2022 Mercedes and just out of curiosity, I thought I’d check and see if Mercedes voice command could assist me by turning on my turn signals just by using my voice. Unfortunately, she told me she wasn’t able to do that as of now. 🤣
Hey Nick, thank you very much for your tips & tricks. I‘m driving a Mercedes A250e since 2021 and didn‘t know that the MBUX can display text messages 😊. Carry on! Greetings from Germany, Stefan
Ah awesome! Thank you glad you enjoy them!
Ah yes a little hidden feature!
Thanks Nick! I use all your tips, really so good content you make. Each time I learn smth new❤
Ah awesome! Thank you! 🙏
Brilliant nick..i picked up a fab cla..35..2weeks ago...and your videos have proved very useful..got everything set to how i want it ..got used to the steering wheel controls too...great fun...many thanks gazz
Oh very nice! 👍🏼 🤓
Thanks for sharing! What colour did you go for?
Glad you’re loving the videos!
Nick its that lovely red...cheers again gazz
Oh nice! 👌🏼
So glad this video popped up while I was searching for something totally different. I’m waiting on my 2024 GLC300 to arrive from the factory and am a little intimidated with all the features and technology. I subscribed to your channel for tips so I know what I’m doing when my suv arrives. Thanks so much!
Awh thank you! 🙏 glad you enjoyed the videos! 🙏
Thank you Nick for your great videos!!
Thanks Toze! 🤓👍🏼
Thanks again Nick, greetings from Amsterdam
close the windows pushing with one finger!!! I salute you sir
Handy tip about the radio station presets, thank you. I use the traffic sign assist in cruise control a lot and it's very useful - the only problem is it can misread the speed limits on the back of lorries as a road sign - I've often had the car suddenly drop down to 50mph on a motorway for no reason at all - and yes, it even changed it to 80mph once and I don't think any magistrate would have believed my excuse for speeding as "the lorry did it!"
Ah awesome thank you! 🤓
Yes it can pick up signs on the back of lorries so I find it if it happens a lot, just toggle off Route Based Speed Adaption and then the speed is over to you and what you select 👍🏼
Common sense
Another great video, thanks for all the tips and trics!
Thank you! 🙏👍🏼🙏
Great videos , very helpful....
Trying to work our all the features on mine !!
Glad you enjoy the videos! 🤓
Excellent and informative as always 👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you! 🙏🙏
Thank you so much Nick.
No worries! 🤓🙏
Awesome. Like your tip shared on windows closing tip button. !
No worries! Glad you enjoyed it!
Another good one Nick 2 tips I didn’t know especially the Satnav one cheers. More interesting than football 😊
Thanks Stuart! 🤓👍🏼
Excellent like always, thank you.
No worries! Thank you! 🙏🙏
Thank you for the tips 👌✨️
No worries thank you! 🤓
Nick you are an encyclopaedia of Mercedes.thank you for the informations
Awh thank you! I’ll keep the videos coming! 🤓👍🏼
Some of those are also available on my 2019 C class with NTG 6.5 comand.
'In the Forest', a nice reminder you're not far from the New Forest. My family use that phrase frequently 🙂
good to know!!!
Brilliant!
Awesome!! GLE 350 AMG(Package) 2022
Hi Nick, thanks for the interesting videos, always very helpful to know the tips and tricks. We have a 2022 GLS 450 with bench seats. I wonder if there is anyway to adjust the angle of the headrest in the second row. I know how to adjust up and down but not sure about forwards/backwards. I put two car seats in the second row and the headrest is kind of in the way. Another question I have is that we bought the car in the USA, the temperature is in Fahrenheit, and I only work in Celsius, is there anything in setting that we can change from F to C? Thanks
Hey Jane no worries! Ooo very nice!
No sadly it’s just up and down as far as I’ve seen when I filmed one before.
Again for the Celsius and Fahrenheit, sadly no I’ve not seen a setting for this before when filming in any Mercedes models.
Best thing to do is ask if a dealership with Mercedes technicians to see if they have the ability to change it.
Custom locations was a good one Nick.
Thank you! 🙏🙏
Will you make a video about the new A250e (facelift model)?
Love your channel, you are very good at it!
Thank you! Yeah I’ll defo be covering the new A-Class if I can get my hands on one! 🤓
@@npoleary thank you! Waiting for it 👍
Really informative and easily digestible content Nick - you were recommended to me by Mercedes Swindon, I have just purchased a 23 plate C300 AMG Line Premium Plus Estate. Could you please direct me to how I could avoid having to input a 4 digit code into my car every time I get in, and utilise the fingerprint pad instead. Many thanks.
Thank you! Glad you enjoy them!
Ah that’s the first thing I did my car
You do it on the first set up when you get the car.
But to access it again, on the home screen, find the profile selector (usually a picture of a person top left / right) and find something along the lines of Protect User Content or something. Just toggle it off from there.
Hi from Poland. Thanks for nice tips.
Thank you! 🙏🙏
Great Channel Nick. Still trying to find stuff out 😂
Thank you! What were you trying to find out?
@npoleary Hi Nick great channel for me. Just bought a CLA 72 plate, with lots of packs on it👍. I was looking how to increase the steering wheel vibration intensity. It seems a little weak. And looking for the hands feet boot release. I've not got it to work yet 🙃
@stevedavenport6028 thank you! Sadly you can’t change that, I’ve got it on mine but not seen any settings for it.
Not all cars have it, depends on the specification.
Make sure you have the key and kick your foot straight in and back out at the back of the car pretty swiftly without kicking your leg on the car. If you have it, the boot will open.
#9: A little more detail: If cruise control is not active, RESUME 1-click turns it on at the speed last set. 2-clicks turns it on and sets it to the speed limit.
BUT ALSO: when cruise control is active, RESUME 1-click will change it to the speed limit.
AND ALSO there is one more cool RESUME detail: If cruise control is active, and DISTRONIC has stopped you to speed zero (e.g. at a light), the car will not proceed when the car in front of you starts pulling away - you have to tap the accelerator. HOWEVER, the RESUME button will also cause your car to proceed (and does not adopt the speed limit as it would if you were moving).
Didn’t know about that last one 👍🏼😎
Thanks!
Thank you so much Leo G 🙏🙏🙏🙏
🎉🥳
Nick - Thank you for your videos, I recently purchased E53 AMG - Can you make a video that tells what all the screens mean and do. Like in this video at 5:55 on the right side of the cluster there is some sort of bulls eye what is that telling me I dont know what its displaying - things like that I have not found what they are telling me. so many options - I also noticed I have a standard feature call Power rear-window sunshade I havent found that switch. Any chance up doing reviews like a full cluster display overview?
Thank you! I’ve produced a few videos on various multimedia systems and instrument clusters but they will always be slightly different in AMG’s as they have extra things like GForce readings etc (think that’s the bulls eye one)
I’ll add it to the list of possible future videos to cover! 🤓
Hi Nick, I am following your videos for a long time and really love them. What I didn't see yet, and I don't know if it is possible, is the feature to set up your dashboard togheter with the ambient lighting and save it. As a personal theme?
I’ve tried Themes before which is on selected models, it depends what model of Mercedes and year you have.
Thank you! Glad you’re enjoying them!
@@npoleary you are correct, I didn't mentioned it. It is A class 180 AMG package 2022. But if it is not something that every MBUX system has, I will ask my dealer. Keep on doing the good job! Regards from Belgium 😊
You should be able to save them via the Themes on MBUX or Profiles
On your Home Screen swipe down to access Themes 👍🏼
Hi Nick, hope you're doing well and thank you very much for these great tips and tricks. I was just wondering if you ever figured out how to go into assist mode on a 2024 GLC 300? The assist mode feature allows you to reset certain features like service a oil change, and some other items that I have not seen yet because I cannot figure out how to go into it. All of the TH-cam clips are outdated. Thank you again.
Oh the hidden service menu? Sadly no only Mercedes technicians know how to get in there. It apparently lets you tell the car it’s had a service I think.
Now that was awesome!Thanks! Can I do the same thing while in navigation for my satellite radio?
I guess so, not heard of satellite radio before but I presume it would work the same way.
@@npoleary oh yes I mean SiriusXM radio. I will try it..
Oh I think so, in the UK satellite radio doesn’t exist but I think it’s presented the same way on the screen
Awesome tutorial Nick! Just bought myself a Benz and this was very concise. Didn't miss a beat. Question please.. How do I get my screen to display full screen when using my navigation via Android auto as it seems to only use it up but so much?
Thank you!
I wish it was full screen too but there are other manufacturers who have come across the same issue before.
The reason is because MBUX (also known as NTG 6) on Mercedes is available in two screen sizes, 7” & 10.25”. When designing and coding I’m led to believe that you can only choose one (to maintain compatibility) for everything.
So to make sure it works on all models, Mercedes of course had to go with the 7” version, which is perfect for 7” owners but of course leads to a cropped experience if you have a 10.25” screen.
NTG 7 found in some new cars have higher faster processors and have one screen size leading to a full screen experience on Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Hope that explains potentially why it’s like that on some cars!
@@npoleary Thank you mate! Much appreciated for feedback. Please one other question if it's even in your context of things on here but what's best way to clean leather seats as I'm hearing it's actually covered in clear coat? Anyway.. If that's not your expertise I'll understand
Oh really I’ve not heard of that before…I do aim to try and produce a video of that in the future but I’d just use any sort of leather cleaner really. I honestly haven’t tried any so at this moment in time I can’t recommend any. But…the first place I’d look at would be Autoglym as they always seem to be good 👍🏼
Thanks for sharing all the tips. Very useful... Can we get trip data and mileage from full tank to full tank? My car only shows trip data for the day and next day it resets...
Thanks MEO TIME, ah there’s two trip data sets. Check this one out here: th-cam.com/video/Gfxg3rMsvTE/w-d-xo.html
From Start is from the start of your journey where as From reset is until you reset it
Thanks for the tips they are really helpful but is there a way to show the album art on media? Seems that it is showing only a few of my songs but the rest are not showing
Hey ViRsxRespect, thank you!
Ah that’s an automatic process. If you have album artwork that’s the correct size to be displayed and if the car’s compatible, it’ll come through.
I find it works better though when plugged in 🤓👍🏼
Hey Nick - epic vids mate. I just purchased a 2021 GLC & noticed with Apple CarPlay it does not show directions in the HUD whereas Android Auto does. Any ideas how to enable Apple CarPlay to do this? Thanks in advance.👍
It’s not something Apple CarPlay does as far as I’ve seen.
I didn’t realise Android Auto could even do that though, wonder if it’s something to do with “Coolwalk”. I remember hearing of an Android update a few months ago that I want to check out somewhen.
Hi nick. I would like to see a video of adjusting the headrest on mercedes c300d convertible.
Hey SQ, wasn’t planning on making a video just on the headrests but it depends on the specification.
If it’s electric, you just adjust it using the buttons on the door.
If it’s manual, in between the lever you pull to get into the back to fold the seat forward there’s a button there to adjust it up/down
@npoleary - would it be possible to somehow identify which Mercedes models apply to your videos? I have an older model and I’m very interested in all your tips and tricks!
Thank you! It’s quite tricky Mercedes sell just over 30 shapes of car (new!) so that’s excluding the years and variants too.
Which model did you have and what year?
Can you ask Mercedes to adjust ambient brightness level? Too many steps in menu to get to it to adjust
Appreciated the iPhone tip.
Hey Nick! Love the videos! Is there a way I can get a US made GLE350 German maps to navigate and use the street light when I come to a traffic light? Do you know how much it may cost?
Thank you!
Sadly I wouldn’t know how it works if a car has been exported.
Cars are only designed for the country that they were made for so it’s highly likely Mercedes me will not work when taken outside of it’s home country and the same goes for maps too.
Only thing I can suggest is get in touch with Mercedes to see if they can offer any solutions.
@@npoleary thanks for the timely response. I’ll ask again (language barrier), but I was initially informed of being able to do map update which may help with navi, but not sure if will help with traffic lights.
Thanks again!
Great video
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! 🙏
Hi Nick , great videos that I hope MB give you Xmas bonus for making.
I’m going away for month and leaving my ‘20 GLC in garage. How do I stop my Mercedes me app constantly monitoring car and draining battery whilst I’m away ? Thanks .
Hey John, thank you! Glad you’re enjoying them!
Oh Mercedes don’t pay me to make these videos 😅 these are all written, planned, filmed and edited by me 👍🏼
Mercedes me doesn’t draw that much power from the car but of course if you’re going away long term, it’s best to purchase a trickle charger to ensure it starts successfully when you’re back. It’s borderline, it might be okay for one month but any longer I’d definitely say to get one
Nick, yes that is exactly it. What happens is when you hit the 10k miles
It triggers a service reminder.
On the 2022 and 23 models and older, there is a way to toggle between the buttons on the steering wheel and go into the service mode reset feature.
I have purchased the service a and service b that will trigger at 10K and 20K miles. But if I keep the car longer than 20,000 mi I intend to do my own service and do my own resetting of the service message. If I have to go out and buy a ODB2 tool to reset this I Will do that.
I love the technology and mbox and the non-textile approach that Mercedes has taken. But to limit us from doing our own basic service, is telling the consumer that we are not qualified to do a simple reset.😅
I live in California Southern and it gets very hot and traffic is very congested. A 4-cylinder turbo engine, going 10,000 mi even with the new Mobil 1 X2 is pushing it. That's why I am wanting to do my own service after the clock throws the service message. And of course this is after 20,000 mi.
Thanks Nick for your input and also great videos.
Ah I see! Yes it’s only Mercedes staff that know how to do it as far I know (maybe other garages might too).
Glad you enjoy the content! I need to visit my local one again soon and film some more videos! 👀
Thank you. I have an a class 2020 plate and trying to load the speed cameras on satnav. Where can i download this?
I have a separate video on my channel about that. I made it about 3 months ago: th-cam.com/video/YGJ4aSyIDKI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=huDr_Tq5JfvASvcL
Great tutorial again Nick . Well done. I tied the window opening on my 2021 GLE AMG Line Prem+ and its not working, do you now if it should, or how can I check it in a spec list or manual please? I was surprised that an A Class can do it and mine can't. Many thanks.
Thank you!
It depends on the specification not all cars can do it, it depends if you have KEYLESS-GO or not, the one with the keyless access point on the handle.
Could be the battery in the key or something, it might be a little lower than it should be...just a thought.
@@npoleary thanks for the fast reply. Well, a one year old car with the highest available spec at the time in the UK. Of course I have KEYLESS-GO. That is why I don't get it why its not working. I tried both keys, and non of them seams to be working. So I don't know. I need to keep using the Mercedes Me up for opening and closing the windows but its a little more fiddley and I need to have an internet connection.
Not sure then, if you get in touch with your local Mercedes they should be able to advise and let you know.
Sadly there aren’t any settings for this in the menus on the cars
Nick, which is the maximum distance we can try this feature? Do you have any ideas? Thanks, always a pleasure to watch your videos!
Usually only a couple of metres away from the handle
Hello, thank you for the explanatory videos.
I bought my Mercedes from Canada and I send it outside (North Africa), I have the Mercedes me connect application and I would like to know if there is a possibility that I can use it to monitor my car a distance . THANKS
Hey Hedi, thank you! Glad you enjoy them!
Really sorry I wouldn’t know what it’s like in other countries as it varies massively round the world. Beat thing to do is speak with your local Mercedes who should be able to help!
Thank you so much I found it...Did you ever hear of a problem when tinting the windows. I saw something on tictok that it caused water damage
I’ve never tried sorry, the car’s I have bought have always had tinted windows in the rear so have never had them tinted.
Thank you
Checking out these vid for my next Merc purchase, but Nick, you always talk about the MBUX system reading out texts from an iPhone, does it do it from an android phone as well?
Yes, it actually comes up with an automatic prompt when connecting Bluetooth 🤓
Traditionally iPhones weren’t able to do it with older iOS versions but they have been able to over the past couple of years
hello , i find your videos most helpful , I just brought a 2023 GLB250 and i am trying to get my adjustment entrance and exit working. i have it on under vehicle setting , any help ??
Thank you!
Do check out my FAQ series! I answer common questions like that there: th-cam.com/video/N9x56XWdjIo/w-d-xo.html
No 2 in the video
@@npoleary thanks so much but its still not working , I think maybe because of the back seat issue
Nice Vid Nick. I have a AMG 45S 2020 but cant get the same image in the view behind the steering wheel (speed dial on the left and rev counter on the right. What do I need to set?
Thank you! What image were you trying to get behind the steering wheel?
If it’s just the normal dials hold the back button closest the driver’s door and it’ll reset
Or if you have a different design, press Home, swipe across to themes / styles (can’t recall the name) and choose classic
@@npoleary Hi Nick. The image I was trying to get was the twin dial with speed on the left and Rev counter on the right. After further looking I could not find that setting(image) I did look under styles and all there is set in that option is regular (blue colouring) Sport (Yellow colouring) and Supersport (Enhanced yellow colouring) There are no images under styles on my car. I did look under trip and found a single spped and a single rev counter image but not togethewr as shown on your video. Another problem I have is that after I paired my android with the car and went into telephone and then into contacts, ONLY Mercedesme is showing and none of my contacts on the phone. A bit puzzled by this.
If you only have a single dial then your screen is 7”. There was an option for a 10.25” screen if I remember from new which is bigger and allows two dials.
For the contacts, make sure you “Allow Contacts” when connecting your phone via Bluetooth. You might need to re-pair the phone again if the pairing process was interrupted.
If you’re sure it’s Allowed, make sure that your contacts are not on your sim or in Google. They need to be on your phone for a car to recognise them 🤓
@@npoleary Many thanks for your invaluable help Nick. I did not know there was a larger screen but it explains the single dial. I have also noticed on the main menu that I have no settings. The last setting I have on the far right is SERVICE. Whether settings is accessible I do not know. Maybe that also comes with the 10.5 screen version. Thanks once again.
Merci pour toutes vos vidéos.
Une question si vous voulez bien, est-il possible de mémoriser mes choix de cadrans dans le combiné d'instruments ? Quand je démarre mon véhicule, les 3 indictateurs reviennent à une disposition d'usine...
Par exemple si je place l'affichage de consommation au centre, il sera remplacé au prochain redémarrage. Merci.
I’m pretty sure Mercedes models should retain the settings when using a profile, however it might go back to default settings if you’re using Guest. That’s what it’s like on mine anyway 🤓
If that doesn’t work just get in touch with Mercedes, I’m sure they’ll be able to help 🤓
Google Translate: Je suis presque sûr que les modèles Mercedes doivent conserver les paramètres lors de l'utilisation d'un profil, mais ils peuvent revenir aux paramètres par défaut si vous utilisez Invité. En tout cas, c'est comme ça sur le mien 🤓
Si cela ne fonctionne pas, contactez Mercedes, je suis sûr qu'ils pourront vous aider 🤓
Hi, thanks for all your help with all the tips and tricks. I have a 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQE. is there a way to do the tips and tricks number eight for some reason I can't figure out how to scroll through my presets only rather than every station, thanks
I would have thought that if you’re on the favourites menu, if you change the station does it not change the favourites?
EQE’s on Radio I’m sure have the Radio screen labelled Favourites, FM/DAB, AM, Tune In Radio at the top.
Sadly I don’t have my car at the moment and I haven’t got a visit planned at my local dealer so I can’t test it.
@@npoleary OK thank you
Hello Nick. So incredibly helpful. My center screen in my 2020 GLC300 suddenly is always showing a video screen of the intersection at a stop. Not sure how I caused this. Can anyone help? Thank you so much.
Oh that’s Traffic Light view 🤓
It would be in Sat nav settings I’m sure,
Home
Navigation
Settings (bottom right)
Advanced
Maybe “View” but have a look for Augmented Reality and Traffic Light view, just toggle that off per user profile (if you have multiple profiles)
I have a 2023 glb250, I dont know how to adjust the tempreture for the rear, hot wind blows from the fist raw, but the rear van blows cool wind
Hi and thanks for useful information. I am wondering when iPhone is connected to the EQE and MBUX is running too, if we want to call a person should we press the button on the steering wheel and say Hey Siri! Or Hey Mercedes? Which one ? Or if we just say hey Mercedes without pressing button call “ (command) Nick” is work?
No worries! 🤓
It depends if you’re using Apple CarPlay or not. If you’re using Apple CarPlay, I’d reccomend Siri but if you’re just using MBUX, stick with Hey Mercedes 😎
Hey Nick thanks for the cool ticks..how can I charge my keypad and does my car have a cigarette lighter I want to use my vacuum. I have a c300 2023
Most cars have USB or USB-C ports. Pretty sure there was at least one USB-C port in the middle of a C-Class when I last reviewed it.
For a 12V socket, there’s one in the passenger footwell (top right).
Hey Nick,
Could you do an in depth overview of the mbux system in the facelift a class? I upgraded to the facelift model and I feel like some features are missing or I can't find them.
Ex: when in any other "theme" than classic, there's no quick way to change the song you're listening too.
You can't show media (or any other screen) in that theme, and the touchpad was removed so you can't swipe it either
Absolutely I will do soon! Got loads of content lined up for that over the next few months!
I’ve noticed those things too, Classic is the only way to change song on the steering wheel.
Yes that’s right Media is only on that one, touchpad was removed but you can change track a couple of ways:
Say “Next Track” just as it is and it’ll change
or
Swipe up from the bottom on the left screen and you can change track there (hidden menu I found the other day!)
@@npoleary Thank you so much for the respond! I will definitely be trying that hidden menu. Your channel is absolute gold for Mercedes riders. Thank you for what you do!
Hi Nick, is it possible to change the default driving mode dynamic select from comfort to individual so that individual is what the Merc starts with. I have a C300 with MBUX 7 2022 model W206
No sadly not
All cars out there have to start in their default driving mode
Mercedes have quite a few but their default is Comfort, you can change it pretty quickly after starting though!
Can make one for 2019 and up that illustrates maintenance resets and or factory resets using the steering wheel buttons?
Hey Mark, really sorry I don’t know how to reset for maintenance, that’s just for Mercedes technicians as far as I’m aware.
There is the multimedia system reset I’ve covered before but I’m not sure about the service one.
Does anybody know if there are more gestures ? I cant find anyother except the 2 peacesign . There most be more right?
Hi Nick, how do you change station in background for NTG 7? Thanks!
Swipe up from the bottom of the screen 🤓 then you can change tracks
Or Say “next track”
@@npolearyThanks, Nick! It works when I say "next rack" but swipe up from bottom of the screen doesn't seem to work, the only way I can do is to use the "last track" or "next track" icon next to the "home" icon.
@jeffreychen5241 oh right if you have a model with the portrait screen there’s already a next track button there so you can’t swipe up in addition to the buttons that’s already there
Saying “Next Track” is by far the easiest! 🤓
Hi Nick, I have a 2021 Mercedes C Class Convertible, the DAB radio doesn’t have any of the station logos on it (just the default icons), is there a trick to get these to display (it seems to be automatic on Audi / VW cars)?
Hey David, no sadly not, it’s automatic and should appear there on their own.
You could try a reset of MBUX to see if it forces a refresh.
Failing that I’d probably just suggest to get in touch with your local Mercedes, hopefully they can help
Hey Nick, I have a 66 plate e class, it it possible to have a full screen reverse camera and not have the sensors showing in the side?
No sadly not, most Mercedes are like that, I’ve not seen a way to make the screen bigger.
There is sometimes a wide view but then you won’t get the wheel lines on the screen.
You can usually just spin the wheel in the middle if I remember when the camera is on
Nick, Could you do a video on using Tidal HiFi with the MBUX? I've had some issues perhaps because I use my phone to provide the data to the car. Thanks very much. John in Canada
Hey John, which model do you have and what year? As most Mercedes models here in the UK you can’t send internet to the car via your phone (with the exception of a couple)
I would like to cover Tidal in the future though!
@@npoleary I have a 2021 S580. The MBUX just updated to the zero layer version. Tidal shows in the interface and I tried it but it wasn't straight forward. Thanks.
It would require a separate data connection or a mobile phone tether if your phone supports it. Easiest way is through Apple CarPlay if you use it 🤓
I will try and cover in the future though!
Just wondering if you can help ….. so I do save a lot of vehicle locations, my GLK would give a chime when approaching the saved location, so my question is there a way to have the saved locations chime when approaching a location mark saved?
Not that I’ve seen, I haven’t heard of a feature where it’ll chime for saved locations. You can save them, but not seen any form of alert when you’re approaching
Mine can scan the sign and traffic lights but it can’t stop at red lights or stop signs. I heard the more expensive S Class can.
Ni Nick
i have a question.
i have a MBUX in the CLA SB from 2020.
is there any possebility to get a split screen on the media screen (center screen)
e.a. phone and Navigation?
thank you for taking time to answer my question.
kind regards
Kevin
Hey Kevin, no sadly when I spent ages in a car making my MBUX walkthrough guide, I don’t remember seeing split screen as a drop down menu.
@@npoleary OK. 🙂
I hope they will add this in the following version. (e.a. MBUX 2.0 or higher )
Thank you for answering zo quickly to my question.
have a nice day
Kind regards
Kevin
Up until today I've had to press the double arrow button and then Swipe left or right to change orders. I didn't realise until today that you can just Swipe it without pressing down.
I drive a 04 corolla but this video was very interesting
Thank you! 🤓👍🏼
Hey nick! ive got an eqs450+, dont know how I disable the rear mirror to autofold. They now remain open when i lock the car....any tip? thanks!
Hey Gonzalo, ooo very nice!
Not sure what you mean, the exterior side mirrors? I’ve never seen an interior mirror fold
Is it the outside ones? They’re controlled on the main centre screen, HOME, SETTINGS, VEHICLE if I remember 🤓
Can you move the icons on the driver screen home menu or just the central one?
Another thing to ask Let’s say for example you go to Europe and change the units to kmh instead of MPH will it change any other units like temperature or just the distance and speed units?
Yes you can move the main menu icons round on the multimedia system but not the instrument cluster.
If you change the units it's just distance and speed that'll change 🤓
@@npoleary ok thank you 🤩
Hi Nick, in the Dynamics display from Mbux, there are the selection like Basic, Advanced, Pro and Master. What are these for actually, can you elaborate?
Hey AMG, it’s for various things, they include steering, shift timing point, all-wheel drive and stabilisation (like ESP settings) / on / on slightly and off allowing the cars safety features for ESP to be completely off.
@@npolearyGot it,,thanks Nick 👍
