It is very annoying! Can I permanently turn it off ??!

[Scraws]

So, if I don't wear my seatbelt, I don't have to deal with it? Perfect!

[DanijelTurina]

Bad features like this one should give you the option to permanently turn them off.

This video came in handy when I had to transport a C300 without having ample time to go through the manual. 👍🏾

I only drive few miles a day in city traffic and don't charge the car enough. This feature cause me a new battery when I do the first year maintenance! I need to turn it off permanently! How can I do that?

How can I disable or keep it off ? Seems whenever it starts it turns it on by default no matter what was set from last drive

[GoProGoalieUzi]

Is this hard on the engine?? Especially in the city...I just bought a new cla 250...I worry about this :/

[zvast]

It's dumb feature. At least option to permanently disable should be available.
Minus for MBZ and others.

You used to program it on or off in the Individual Mode.

mercedes benz cla 250 2016 when make a complete stop sign after a few seconds the car automatic go on neutral why

[amorecalzavacca]

Hello around 0:56 of the video you say that the eco-mode can be deactivated in the “individual” mode, that’s true, I have a C220 and it works exactly like you said, the problem is that I have also a C300 of the new restyling and when you set the individual mode the function to deactivate the start stop is no longer shown... is it hidden somewhere else?

[istenfasza]

Mine does stop the car, but refuses to start it again! What can I do, other than switching it off every single time I start driving??

[richshorta]

Is there any way to turn off just the open car door feature that shuts the engine off.

[olivedrabgarage]

How do you turn it off permanently?? I have a 2017 GLS350D and we live in a semi-rural area. Everytime we get to the traffic lights in town the motor switches off and you get that moment of panic that the engine has stopped in a bad way and youll be stuck at the lights...getting a frieght like that at every blokdy set of traffic lights is stress inducing and its the most hated feature of this car that otherwise we love.

[pspgamerserjio]

does this ruin or wear out the starter?
