Hey everyone, for those asking about the eject from sunroof command on MBUX. This is genuinely real! However it is only found on the portrait styled version of MBUX (MBUX v2 / NTG 7 currently found in C-Class, EQE, EQS & soon to be the new SL and new GLC next year).

I am so very happy to have discovered your fantastic tutorials on MBZ! The manual is daunting to say the least, and puts one to sleep. My 2016 350 wagon was ready to begin eating money, after around 80,000 miles. We walked into a dealership to see how long it takes to order a new wagon. We’d heard up to a year. Sitting on the lot was a fully loaded cardinal red 450 wagon. It was “used” with 100 miles on it! A guy bought it for his wife but she didn’t like it. What fantastic news for us! A CPO certified car that was such a deal! We traded in the older cardinal red car on the spot. Poor new car has had to sit outside in the first and biggest snowstorm of the season. We’re in the midst of moving to a new home so the garage is full. Thanks for your great help with tutorials. I will be viewing them over and over until they are fully ingrained in my brain.

Hi Nick, I am curious for slippery mode in dynamic select, will the all wheel drive reduce aquaplaning? I.e. wheel spins in symmetrically to avoid aquaplaning ?

@npoleary

Жыл бұрын

Hey Supet Duper, Basically Slippery Mode will reduce the power output quite considerably. It’s just best suited to wintery or extremely wet conditions. It’s hard to tell as aquaplaning is mainly down to contact with the road and the amount of water the tyre can disperse. The tyre tread design plays a massive part into this too. For 4-wheel drive systems, yes this can help but good tyre tread depth would be the best in this situation and lower speeds.

Nick - I've been watching just about all of your videos related to my recently purchased EQS 580 and they are great. Thanks so much for doing them. I have a question if you still read these comments. I've paired my iPhone with the MBUX, allowed the contacts and favorites to sync, and enabled Apple CarPlay. CarPlay works great but I am really enjoying MBUX so I want to mostly use that interface. The contacts still don't sync so I can't just say, "Her Mercedes. Call ..." then list someone in my contacts. If I want to do that, I need to switch to CarPlay and ask Siri to do it. The dealership tells me that once CarPlay is enabled that the contacts won't sync to MBUX - it's just one or the other. True or is there something I've failed to do to be able to use contacts in MBUX? Thanks for any assistance.

@npoleary

Ай бұрын

Hey! Ah glad you enjoy them! Yes so for the best user experience (this is for any car as I cover various manufacturers and they’re all the same) You must choose one or the other. For example in Mercedes if you have Apple CarPlay on, MBUX will suspend some of its functions and expect you to use CarPlay. I’ve not been in an EQS for a while since I filmed one with Mercedes some time ago but it’ll be in the phone menu and you’re looking for some icons that have Phone icon, Media icon & Apple CarPlay icon (this will probably be selected at the moment). Press Home, Phone and look for the like a Bluetooth device manager option where you’ll find these icons. Another thing you could do on your phone is press Settings, Bluetooth, find your car and turn off CarPlay in there which will force the car to use Bluetooth enabling the phonebook to appear on MBUX.

I am able to toggle between using CarPlay and BT but wanted to see whether you could confirm that the contacts would not be available to the phone function for both MBUX and CarPlay.

Ah that’s just the way CarPlay works. CarPlay is a completely separate UI and when enabled it’ll make the multimedia system in a car swap to CarPlay. You can use both together but you’ll find that you’ll be hopping between UI’s often as they both compete for your attention. For example if you have a text come through, that’ll interrupt whatever’s on the screen and show you that instead.

I had a Porsche Taycan before the EQS and I could see the two interfaces (Porsche and Apple) but I thought I was still able to instruct the Porsche side to call contact numbers. Since I used Apple CarPlay more often than Porsche's interface, I likely and just not remembering that experience correctly. MBUX does everything so much better than Porsche's PCM, though, that I find myself expecting to spend much more time on that interface. Thanks again.

Hi Nick, love your reviews. Just one clarification: on 7:50 you say: iPhones could be a little bit funny with contacts. It's quite the opposite, they are very serious when it comes to protecting your data. When you don't allow the sync of the contacts in the initial pairing, then the iPhone will not allow it from then on to protect your data. Thank you for showing how to work around that if you didn't allow it by accident and you are indeed ok with sharing your contacts with this car.

Hey cesstra, thank you! Sorry that’s not what I meant at all. Sorry if you took it the wrong way. When connecting Bluetooth, on the odd occasion the contacts pop up never appears which is a bug either on the phone side or car side. So you have unpair and disconnect the whole thing and start again. Absolutely, Apple are at the forefront of privacy and data is seriously encrypted on all devices. Just annoying from time to time that the Allow Contacts pop doesn’t appear.

Good afternoon. If you don'thave ant vídeos on the subject, like to ask if you make one about how to get radio stations to show the names of artists and songs. Thanks for working and sharing.

Ah SOS is only for emergencies (calling police, ambulance, fire etc) And you can use the buttons! Usually shortcuts for everything on the left screen but then the other side will operate the instrument cluster and cruise control 👍🏼

Hi Nick, when setting the limiter to a certain speed and going downhill, how the car keeps the speed? Purely relying on brake?

It’ll utilise engine braking and the actual brakes to keep it at a steady speed 👍🏼

Very basic question here. We own a GLS 450 and an AMG E53 Cabriolet. Where do you place your cell phone while you are driving the car? And your passengers both front and back? I have a pad on my dash that keeps items from moving but the heat is not good for the phone. Thank you for a response

Ah it can be anywhere 🤓 Bluetooth connectivity works from any place in the car, it could remain in your pocket, centre console or any space that works. Some cars have wireless charging next to the cup holders and even in some cars, you can take the cup holders out for extra space!

Sadly not seen or covered the 2024 GLE yet but if I get my hands on one I’ll be sure to check it out! I doubt it though, as with all Mercedes models that I’ve tested, you need to lock using the key or by touching the handle if you have keyless 🙏👍🏼

Hello Nick, how do I alter the sensitivity on my 2020 E class controls for sat nav etc, I mean the pad that’s between the two front seats, for instance if I’m entering the post code of an address the pad is so sensitive that I enter the same letter or number numerous times and have to keep erasing them?

Hi Nick, For EQA & EQB supplied type 2 charging cable.. Just installed a single phase 32A EV charger which should put out 7.3kW but only charges at 4.8kW for both cars using both cables. Tried same cables using 3 phase 22kW public charger - but again both cables only charge at 11kW. Why are cables half what they should be. Car charges fine at 7.3kW when using a different cable /charger. Help :) Mark

Hey Mark, I can try! Can you send me a photo of the text on the ends of the cable? I’ll try my best to help but you may need to either contact the charger manufacturer for your home or Mercedes to check the car. Send me a photo at “contact@npo-media.co.uk” Last question, is it a straight cable or coil cable?

You can mute the speaker by pressing once on the volume mob on the steering wheel. I have a question. Is there a way to turn off the exterior light when the ignition is on like sitting in the car waiting to warm up the car? I have it set to automatic lighting.

No sadly not permanently, you could move the light switch round to the parking lights (either left side or right side). This would turn the lights off but just remember to put it back afterward 🤓

We have a 2023 AMG GT 53. When we activate the Cruise Control and drive by a MPH sign the car reads the speed limit and slows to that speed.. In general this is a safety feature, but does provide safety during the summer when school is not in session. Is there a way to shut this feature off?

Oooo nice! Yes I have seen it before on Mercedes cars. It’s under Traffic Sign Assist and a thing called “Adopt Speed”. Central Display: HOME SETTINGS ASSISTANCE TRAFFIC SIGN ASSIST ADOPT SPEED This may vary round the world and from system to system and my memory might not he 100% accurate but it should be roughly in that area. Let me know how you get on 🤓👍🏼

Three days into my 23 reg Mercedes not great so far. The dealer did not set up Mercedes me and when I had a go all I get is a spinning wheel in the middle of the QR code any suggestions? Also I cant get internet in the car as Vodaphone state there are no packages available. I could go back to the dealer but as they told me the premium plus model I bought had adaptive cruse control only to find out it does not after I took delivery I would prefer to steer clear any Ideas?

Hey Michael, oh that’s odd, they’re the ones who need to add it. When reviewing a car I often ask for temporary access so I can see if there are any improvements and additions to Mercedes me, usually only takes a couple of minutes. You can go to another dealer but you’ll need to take your V5 document in and proof of ID. You sure they didn’t add it to your email or mobile? Just thinking you might be signed into your mobile but they added it to your email?
