Hi All,

Picked up AMG Line Premium PLUS a few days ago and starting to find my way around it although have not used the charging network yet !! I have a Pod Point installed at home which works great !!

Superb stability contary to the write up it had and sports mode is ludicrously fast !! Loving it so far although the only crib is the pillars are thick making a few blind spots reversing.

Quick question on D- setting for regenerative braking ! I want it to stay on permanently but it keeps reverting to D on my next start ?? What am I failing to do ?
Thanks ... and hello all....👍

It resets every time, I don't believe there's a way to stop this from happening.

Have you tried holding a paddle down for the D-AUTO mode yet?

 

[Garycpos]

No, not yet ... Will give it a go later ...👍 Cheers for the reply...

I do find it a bit frustrating to have to remember to put it into D auto becuase it always defaults to D but wonder if I can change it in profiles have just not got round to trying to see if I can.
After a couple of weeks fiddling with all the various options I now use D auto (if I do not forget) all the time. I found it the best balance for regen and it gives the coasting function. It also uses the semi autonomous elements of the car so will slow for you on approach to junctions and twkes into account the soeed limits. You get little warning signs in the head up display too to say when you can lift off and save battery.
If you have not already found it have a look at the mercedes eco coach app very useful and you can earn point to either offset carbon or receive a voucher for charging. I am wondering if I could earn enough with vouchers for a free trip to Bordeaux in the spring 🤣

Have you read manual?

Have you read manual?

Hi no you have to reser it each time I am afraid. However I have found that you can do so even if not in d or even in reverse. So when you start up hold the paddle as reqd and it will then be in d auto. It is a pain as if I am manouvering before driving off I often forget but now I am trying to remember topull on the paddle before doing snything else. Would be good if it could be set in profiles mercedes if you are looking😉
