Remote Start Your Benz Old School Way
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 вер 2024
- A subscriber complained he couldn't lock his Benz and leave it to warm up in the winter since it doesn't have the remote start feature. His keyless Go remote won't let him get out of his car and lock it if the engine is running so Carquestions finds a solution to trick the car so it can be locked with no one inside and the engine running.
By the time you do this you are freezing outside 🤣🤣🤣
I use the valet key to lock the drivers door on my "MAR-cedes". (all other doors already locked naturally)
None of that reaching thru the window jazz to lock. When I'm ready to go, I use the valet key once again to unlock.
Thanks for the Video :)
Good tip
I was think that too haha
I guess Mercedes Benz changed their name to Marcedes Benz. This had me and my whole family laughing for hours
Canadian accent
LMAO
Your family must be pretty boring if someone not pronouncing a word correctly because of their accent had you all laughing for hours.
lol if they heard me they'd even laugh harder since we pronounce it the German way! ua-cam.com/video/mG7GBGcABYQ/v-deo.html
You could also use the key to lock your door without the whole window down/up. And use the key to unlock.
Try it, You will find that you can not lock the GL550 with the Key, only unlock.
Remember that you must turn the twice to the left and then pull the handle to unlock.
Not an English major here, but would remote starting your car not require you to be in a remote location, away from the car...
What does being an English major have to do with what you said?
@@jhollywood9921 remote start would normally mean starting the car remotely lol. This video shows you how to lock your car after its been started and not how to remotely start it.
You can start your car using the panic button without even opening the car.
good to know - Cheers!
I cant believe I kept on expecting something
I've never seen a MAR-cedes, is this a new brand?
There sold in Canada only. In Italy they are called Merchaidies
lmao
My mom says it this way too, so irritating, lol
😩😩😩😩😩🤣🤣🤣
🤣
you just wasted 3 mins of my life thanks
Anytime
carquestions savage lol
carquestions my hero😂
😂😂😂🤣
I tried this with my MINI. I cut myself into two pieces from the waist.
Funny Edgar
You don't know what your doing bro.. good to see you learned something new but not what everyone that clicked were looking for
Nice video. Wish I had a Benz to implement this technique. I will certainly remember it for when I can afford one! Thanks
Don't be jealous in the least - most people that own these cars pull their hair out over the many expensive problems they frequently have. If you have lots of money to burn buy one they drive beautifully - if not buy 2 used ones, drive one and keep the other for spare parts
***** Thanks for that. And that is definitely a great idea!
you can get one for a 1/4 of the original price. by the time you're reading this you'll probably have one already. Keep up the maintenance/get a good fair mechanic and don't be rough with it. I have bought 3, still have 2 and ready for my 4th, only one was a flop. They drive beautifully!
Ive by-passed this by parking inside.
Better idea
Man! This is very useful for me. Now I can leave my small dog in the car with air conditioner on even in summer. This makes my family’s life much easier.
김윤석 with the car running. Pathetic
There should be ac/rest button in your climate control, debends of the model and year. It will heat or cool down the cabin when engine is off and you don't have to iddle the car.
Remote starting necessarily means you're not in the car when it happens. That's kinda fundamental to the concept. If "old school" means starting a car normally, then I must be missing the point.
Probably it means that haha.
For all of you out there, Mercedes Benz has an option which lets preheat the ca rby remote control while you are inside your house, I have in my E Class and it works fantastic, it is also available in the after market. save yourself the hassle for a few bucks.
I just keep my Mar-cedes in my Gar-age!
I hate remote start for a couple of reasons. First - It is a waste of gas, every AM I see cars idling on their driveways for half an hour while owners have breakfast. You only need 30 seconds to make a car ready to drive, put on a coat while it warms up. Second - Metal cracks easily when it is cold. You may be warming up the engine and interior but the rest of the drivetrain is still frozen! Now you hit the street and floor the car and rip out the ice cold transmission. Been there , done that.
Automatic transmission fluid cycles through the radiator, thus heating the trans fluid when the engine coolant heats up.
Very useful, I've used it on my Mercedes a lot. One thing is that people would have to have the key some where inside of the cabin because of their safety system.
If your you have to go outside to do the window thing it kinda defeats the whole staying warm while your car warms up thing, you might as well just go out and start it.
Lol
Damn! Too much steps to warm up your marcedes😬 just sit inside while it's running man jeeeez
Gotta love people who set others up for failure. The unlock procedure with the key blade varies per year and model. You should rename this video for your particular model and not for every Benz.
This works for the 2011 GL550.
Your engine will love of that idling when cold...
That's why I choose BMW... much easier... after start you still can get out and lock the car... also come back right in with key fob... you should try..
I agree
+121bham thats because BMW don't run.
Just use the key to lock the door!!! Sheeesh!!!
that to
I have a 2007 e350 and all you need to do with this car is remove the key from fob start the car, open drives door, hit the inside lock button get out and use the key from fob to lock the drivers door...
You could have pushed the button down before you closed the door.
Hahahahaha by the time you do that the car over heated .
FYI - normally functioning cars will idle all day long until they run out of fuel - a car in good shape won't overheat from idling ever
Unfortunately mine has the window button on the center console...
This is different on different years/models. So basically somene who tries this and doesn't have your specific model will end up temporarily locked out. I have an S and the sequence is two 3/4 pulls followed by one regular pull and really isn't easy to do takes a lot of tries getting the 3/4 correct.
been doing this since my first key fob Mercedes Benz. A 2002 C320 wagon.
"MAR say dees". :-)
Okay, I believe the Mercedes Benz key fob has a valet key that you could use to lock and unlock the car manually aside from locking and unlocking the glove box and the trunk-Why? Would you go through the trouble of this process when you can press the lock button while the car is runny, then since the drivers door is still unlocked remove the valet key from the fob and lock the drivers door manually? by the way this is a rhetorical question?
SuperFerariboy Do you like your cars like your eggs? A little runny?
Thanks and appreciate it was awesome video !
I have 2008 Mercedes GL550 it does need to replace the suspension but could you tell me please how can I know it needs to replace the Air Spring Bags or Struts or both ?
A full mechanical inspection by a mechanic is the best way - if it is sitting low and rough riding it is also a sign the suspension needs service - Cheers!
@@carquestions alright thanks 🙏
Why going through this when you can open the rear door and lock the driver door from the back door and then close the back door
Way too much hassle! You even took the emergency key out. Ridiculous
POLITICALLYSTUPI: Come on... he is just be nice and giving a tip.. you don't have too if you don't want to.. I used to do this when I had my Lexus, but I could just open the door when I touch the handle. No need to use the key.
lol or you can just use the key in the remote to lock the last lock on driver door lol, do this to my clk all the time great "remote start" lol
why can't you just open the door , push the lock down and push the door closed? you don't even need the key
He's Biff Tanner.
All you have to do is lock the doors before you get out.. when you open your door.. your door only will unlock.. simply push down to lock & close door... done
This is not a remote start genius. Remote start means you can start it from your house without going inside the car etc
Duh, what if the key slipped and fell in whilst you shut the window? Lol
delete POLITICALLY from your nick rest can stay ;)
A smart person, not you, would put it in their pocket and keep it pushing, you arent just politically stupid, you're just plain stupid, lol
Have you tried locking it from the passenger side? Quite a few cars will lock all doors with the engine running if you do it from there
It’s a Mercedes not a Marcedes.
You could of just locked the door with the key in the beginning lol
ya I could I guess - cheers!
Do the same thing using the passenger door an lock your car open the passenger door now lock your car start your car shot the passenger door these way you don't have to use the window I do these on my 2013 c 300
It will remote start from an app on your phone lmao
Dang, I have the same exact SUV but with Manuel windows
Is there an easier way to do this without going to the car in the first place?
The convenience factor.
I have the Mercedes me app on my phone. I can turn on the engine and it will turn off in 10 minutes automatically or I can turn it off anytime before that.
no app for the older ones unfortunately
w164 facelift does not have key miss detect system. They failed to program the keyless start system
Dude none of the second bit is necessary. Just hold the unlock button and the windows will open
Or buy a remote start for $50-$75 and not deal with all this other wacky stuff!
Mobsters have used them for the
last 50 years for safety!
Just bought one for my Infiniti Mike - $380 - Cheers from Canada!
I just bought my GLC 300 two weeks ago. In the manual it says you can use your smartphone with a MB app to remote start the vehicle. However they don't name the app to use.
MercedesMe
How about mercedes me app. Lock car
Can I walk up to my car after and it unlock without me having to use the valet key?
This is a HORRIBLE IDEA.
2hrs later.
I mean great, but that’s a pain in the a$$
too much hassle, I don't lock my Merc after turning it on during winters...I don't have to..
just turn on the automatic lock feature
Won't auto lock with engine running
or you could use the manual key
You're doin way too much bro
I lost my arm doing this. Don't do it!
Thats to much work ... every morning doing all that is too much
My car too much to not have remote start!!!😡
Wtf you locked yourself out 😂😂
Maybe you shouldn't leave your car unattended while its running in your Marcedes.
why does he keep saying MARcedes ?
Canadian accent
Takes to long. I could just buy a Chrysler! And get remote start!
I agree - these things are not to be admired
Kathy C: Come on... Chrysler?? It's totally 2 different cars, different class, and different price too... I guess you are not rich enough and never owned this type of car... it's ok, we forgive you by saying "Chrysler".. Lol~~
Yeah, but it’s a Chrysler. eewwwww
And freez to death while doing this sheet
Unfortunatly not legal in germany :(
or sell your high-end car and move to a better/safer neighborhood!
they actually steal running cars MORE in high end neighborhoods
@@DJRenee prove it
Warming car with idling is not clever idea
I agree with that unless you live in really cold places -
@@carquestions last 7 days in Chicago was -20c, i let run engine lile 5min only
just a quick question on this if you still up to it. once you reset your service warning doea it automatically select the new service A, B,C or D and the period or do you need to set this up?
Could end up being any one of them depending on the mileage and if they have ever been reset at a dealer
Seriously?? You're going to have to stand in the cold will you all do that.. yeah no thanks..
çok güzel
teşekkür ederim
Marcedes?
Sorry for the late reply - thats how we say it John
Seems risky
can be for sure
Didn’t know there was a “A” in “Mercedes”.
wow
Hi
Hello Sarah - Cheers from Canada!
There is easier way of doing it hahaha lol you lock the doors from the inside and you hold handle from the outside in the open position as you close the doors lol
holy shit! you need a college degree just to work the door locks!
Mercedes bills itself as the most advanced car company in the world but in fact many of their cars like the one in this video doesn't even have a touch screen nav system or the ability to tell you which tire is low on air - if an egghead buys one they'll be very disappointed in its actual lack of advancement
***** It's like people who buy base BMWs.
How is a touch screen an advancement?
Weisswurstbreze
i absolutely hate touch screens in cars. you can't see them in the sun and they're fingerprint magnets.
happy543210: No, you don't... but you sure need at least a high school degree to be smart enough and rich enough to buy these type of cars.. Do you have more than 2 of these type of cars right now?? Lol~~~
Lol 😂 u funny
wtf
“ Worst video ever” - comic book guy voice But seriously I want 5 minutes of my life back please send refund .
What a pos way to do that. Just spend the $300 on a remote start!!!!! 😂😂😂😂 you own a Mercedes Benz Foh
You could do this but it always messes up Mercedes electronically having that external input, it just causes issues in the long run
way to complicated! You can also use a stone to open it;-)
Obviously u Americans do not care about environmental pollution? So do net let your car run for warming up! If you need a warm car, get a preheater for your car...by wire 110V oder by a Webasto/Eberspächer preheater (runs with Diesel/Gas)...way less pollution than let the car running. Don't be lazy, be responsibly with your environment.
(no i am not one of these vegies or extrem, morally apostle of environment!)
Politcal statements abound, isnt the guy who posted this Canadian? hmmm, Reading Is Fundamental, lol
And i did not wrote US-American...American are people who live in America...in this case North-America...Canada and US are residents of North-America! I worked with both of them for 7 years...most of the people did not car about any envirnmental pollution...every party it was with so massive plastic "dishes"...and after using it onces..throw it in the bin and get a new one...Car had a problem while it was cold...no problem...let it run...and kick the throttle until it is warm enough to drive...instead of fixing it. ...i can write so many examples...but i guess and hope, that there are also some of the americans who really care whats going on with pollution and do not start thinking when it is to late for them...cause it is allready time to change something...And no, i am not of the hardcore green environmental activist.
But i guess...Trump will fix all problems...(NOT) ...rofl so hard
How awful. Horrible video, and set up from mercedes. Just sit there
Very useless
Dude you have a door key inside the fob use it duh 😒
Lock the door with it too
Or point the fob at the handle while pressing unlock and it opens all the windows. Then you reach in and unlock.
It’s good to know but the mercs warm up pretty quick. Probably quicker than that procedure .
lol i was thinking the same
Instead of all the nonsense lock the car with the key and unlock with key what I do with my 2000 s500
First of all you shouldn't let your car sit idling while the engine warms up. It's not good for the engine, or for your wallet or for the environment (I realise amercans couldn't give a shit about the environment but still worth mentioning).
So really this is a massively convoluted way to warm your car up a few degrees. Far better to just scrap off any snow from the windows, get into it and start driving. it will warm up quicker once you're on the road.
Alternatively get a Mercedes with the 'pre-heat' option like the C350E with which you can set it on a timer or turn on/off the heating via your mobile app.
Guess you never lived in a cold climate eh? - tough to drive with fogged up windows
I live in the UK. I think we know a thing or two about cold weather. Regardless far better to get in your car and drive than run your window and screw up the environment. The Great Barrier Reef officially died last week after millions of years of being in existence. That is almost certainly due to us (us=you and me NOT the USA :) )
Rakesh Bhardwaj: Engine?? What do you know about engine?? 1st, These cars comes 4 years 50k miles warranty. Anything happen just bring back to dealer to fix, and dealer will provide loaner for us. 2nd, if there is problem with "engine", for people like us, we will just change another new cars.. 3rd, like you really do give a shit about the environmental.. and ppl in UK too?? We do what we can do to save the earth BUT no one is doing perfect in the life... so please don't bring this shit up...
mark tu wow. you really don't give a shit do you. forget environment. running an engine idle to warm it up is not good for the engine. period. no argument. applies to new cars and old. while you might be fine with your 5 year warranty that doesn't mean the advice is invalid . calm down mate. run your car how you want.
Rakesh Bhardwaj Yes, tell Americans how polluted we like the environment to be when China and India far surpass every pollution benchmark in the modern world. I'm also Indian, btw. Don't delude yourself by buying into stereotypes and hyperbole.
And don’t forget to take the keys out
Good video but this is bullish smh
How is that remote start and Mercedes does not have an A in the name.
in Canada it is
Just Wanted to ask .Did your car come with the push to start Option?
yes
What about locking the doors and pressing the panic button for 1/2 sec?
There was nothing remote about this. A lot of trouble for just leaving your car running.
Woman are from vanus man are MERS
Dont get it
And they call that luxury 🤣🤣🤣
