Brand new E450 Wagon owner. I’m 2 days old today as a MB owner and now I know that I am gliding, thanks to your video.

I’m appreciating my car more and more everyday thank you 🙏🏼

Big thanks ,BIG MASTER! Very nice video as always.We like your videos!

Awesome video man.

I noticed my "D" turned green and didn't know what was happening, but I wasn't scared. As always, thanks for the lesson!

Great video

Wow!! I am a new subscriber from your latest videos... Now this is awesome video I have to watch this one back.. I have the glide in mine? 2021 GLS 450 Matic? if so this is great!! But have to watch it back a few times! Gas is high now only using premium 97 octane.. I am part of the American Eagle Foundation and watch eagle cams all the time during nesting season that started here in Florida!! Amazing footage of the eagle with the fish!! Just loving that!!

Very Interesting...........

I learned to drive in old cars with no power steering & assisted brakes. If we came home very late we would switch off the engine some distance from home and coast / glide to a stop so we wouldn't wake up our parents, or wife. . I tried this in the first vehicle I had with power assistance, a Landrover 110 Defender with the V8 3.5 Block. I turned off the key and nearly smashed down my own garden fence at the bottom of the road . I was stood on the brake and needed my full strength to steer. Very unnerving. Never ever again will I try this :)

Gliding mode works only when both the accelerator and brakes are released, but the Cruise Control usually uses accelerator and transmission constantly. So, Gliding will not work while using the Cruise Control, except maybe some models equipped with a top-of-the-line Driver Assist Package that can control your car without accelerator.

Gliding will not work with Cruise Control, because it uses the accelerator. You have to let go of both Gas and Brake pedals in Eco Mode.

2017 GLC 43 "AMG" - glide mode (cute little blue sailboat icon appears) leaves the engine idling at about 500 or 600 rpm. It doesn't go to zero rpm, presumably because the Stop-Start system uses a semi-normal starter motor, not the integrated SMG approach. Disclaimer - this comment contains some speculation.

Yes, as I explained in this video, The engine will switch off completely only on models equipped with the newest 48V EQ Boost models, so the battery can handle the load single-handedly. Other Mercedes models will switch to the Neutral while gliding, also saving a lot of gas but not "0." The engine will be still on.

It should. However, as I explained in this video, it works a little different on your model because it's not 48V electrified as a model in the video. The Gliding in your model just switches the transmission into the N position while gliding. It saves you a lot of gas as well, but doesn't turn off the engine completely, so it's not a total 0. Try to go into E, accelerate and release both accelerator and brakes, and then see if your D sign changed to a green color.

I think you used a bad translator, because it doesn't make any sense.

It works on my E Class 220 D 2017 model. W213. I have to put it in eco mode. My car used to coast for longer distances giving me 78 mpgs not kidding you but recently since it came back from Mercedes service, it rarely crosses 55 mpgs. Despite being in eco and coasting through gliding mode, my car starts slowing down even on slopes. I am not sure what the hell is going on. I am getting my wheels aligned to see if thats causing any issues.

I've noticed that when I cease pressing the accelerator pedal on the highway, my E300 will glide for awhile but I've never noticed the Tachometer going to zero. Very cool! By the way, do you know if "Adaptive Learning" in Mercedes-Benz vehicles is a legitimate feature and can be reset as shown in this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/g2Glk6R6g9bgnco.html ? Would love to hear your take on this.

It's available on many MB models over the past 10 years. However, if the model is 48V electrified, as the one in this video, the Gliding turns the engine off completely. If it's not, then it disengages the engine and saves a lot of gas, but the engine still works, so it still consumes gas, just a lot less. The best way to see if the Gliding works in your car is to repeat all the steps I showed in this video when the engine is warm, and see if letter D changes the color. Then you know you have it.
