Mercedes Benz DRIVING ASSISTANCE Package - FULL WALKTHROUGH GUIDE

  • The Mercedes-Benz Driving Assistance Package is one of the most intelligent driving assistance systems out there today. It uses systems to make driving more effortless, warning of danger and can even protect occupants and pedestrians in emergencies.
    This video is an in-depth guide showing you how to use it, what each item does and how combined it makes one of the most impressive packages you can buy today.
    *IMPORTANT*
    The Mercedes-Benz Driving Assistance Package is quite rare and not found on every model of Mercedes-Benz. Please double check what your model can do with your local Mercedes-Benz dealership before trying anything out on the road. Spec can vary from model to model and year to year.
    United Nations regulation (UN-R-79) also affect the Driving Assistance Package wherby Active Lane Change Assist has been removed.
    UN-R-79 requires systems like this to have a hands on / hands off sensor to detect if you have your hands on the steering wheel or not. I'm sure Mercedes-Benz are working hard on this for future models in years to come but will not be available on new cars until further notice. Speak to your local dealership to clarify on further details.

    I use these for all things USB-C! Compatible with all models of Mercedes-Benz that feature USB-C ports, compatible with Apple CarPlay & Android Auto too!

    C 350 e. Fabulous vehicles. ( It is our seventh Mercedes.) But a lot to learn. My husband 86 yrs and I love the idea that it is on full alert, even though we don’t understand much of it, and just drive as we always have. Love Love Love. You and your channel are brilliant.

    Excellent demonstration and explanation of the Driving Assistance Package. I had most of this on my previous (2nd Gen) B Class and it was excellent. I'm currently driving another (very similar!) make of German vehicle with much of this type of system but it isn't quite as good as the Mercedes one, so I have just ordered a new B250e Premium Plus with Driver Assistance Package, which I'm very much looking forward to, but have no idea yet when I'm likely to get it. In the meantime I'm really enjoying your channel whilst I wait to get back into a Mercedes!

      Thanks Edgaras! Glad you enjoy the videos!
      No sadly once a Mercedes is made, you can’t add things like this. I mean it probably would be possible but it would cost a lot of money for the hardware, upgraded sensors, mirrors with blind spot assist, new steering wheel to control it, upgraded multimedia system etc not to mention replacement bumpers with radar.
      Sadly Mercedes dealerships don’t offer this because they have to sell the cars as they’re described on their spec sheets so it’s best to find a car with it already on 🤓

But the controls on my steering wheel is a bit different from the one you shown on your video, e.g. the preferred car distance is only one button. Would appreciate a short video explaining the updated controls for Driving Assistance.

    Hello Nick, again a very informative video. Question, can you also use it in a constant speed modus without the adaptive distance modus?

    • @npoleary
      @npoleary  Рік тому +1

      Hey Erik, not sure what modus is but basically Mercedes will either have
      Cruise Control and LIM (for limiter)
      or
      Distronic Active Distance Assist and LIM (for limiter)
      The last one is optional equipment and is only available when ordering at factory and is the one that maintains distance to the car in front.
      Normal cruise control does not have this
      Hope that helps!

However this function doesn't work anymore. I wonder if I have by accident changed one of the settings. Do you have any suggestions on how I can regain access to this function? Thanks

    • @npoleary

      Hey Star, sadly it not available on most cars in the UK unless there’s some sort of hands on/hands off sensor on the steering wheel.
      If I remember, it was on the centre screen in the middle of the car, in HOME, SETTINGS, ASSISTANCE and then Active Lane Change Assist 🤓

    Valuable and informative video. I have just purchased 2017 E Class premium plus but it doesn’t seem to have this full package. The one I really miss from my previous Jag is Blind Spot Assist. How can I check for it. Also how can I check if Active Brake Assist is working. Thanks

    • @npoleary
      @npoleary  2 роки тому +1

      Hey John,
      Thank you John! 🤓
      Active Brake Assist will be working all the time, it would notify if there was something wrong.
      Regarding the other things, the Driving Assistance Package is a separate package for most cars in the UK. It is really cool but most of the features are offered for people who do lots of motorways driving. If you have Blind Spot Assist, you’ll see red warning triangles in your mirrors when someone is in your blind spot when travelling at speed.

What will happen if I am on the motorway, going left lane, and on the left I have a new lane to leave the motorway. will the car follow the solid lane (so go left) or stay on the original course?

    • @npoleary
      @npoleary  3 роки тому +1

      It is just of course a driver aid so won’t drive for you but it would stay on the motorway. But if you would have indicated it switches it off temporarily.

    • @npoleary
      @npoleary  3 роки тому

      Hi Richard, not sure on that one. I know there have been lots of delays in the UK due to COVID-19. The factory even pretty much closed at one point but if this is a car in stock, it could be due to what your local dealership might be able to cope with at the moment. Due to furloughed staff etc, they might have been forced to take holiday or something meaning less staff in the dealership. I don’t know for sure, but it could be that? Haven’t heard anything about emissions though...

      Thanks Trinity Online! 🙏 glad you enjoyed it!
      Unfortunately no the hardware on the car wouldn’t be able to pick up what a kerb is. I guess LIDAR would be probably needed for that or something similar anyway.
      The Driving Assistance Package is purely just to help and take the strain of long motorway drives etc so unfortunately it can’t do U-Turns.
      Hope that answers your questions!

      Hello @@npoleary, Thank you for the response, appreciate it. In Singapore, U turns are very common and very often kerb scraping occurs due to narrow clearance. Hope in future mercedes can actually factor that in and that will make a truly perfect driving aid system. Thank you once again for the response. Take care.
