I’ve got MY CAR Back! | CAR TOUR + Tips & Tricks! 

Glad to see you have your ride is back - Congrats!!! Thanks for all your insightful vids this year and may you have a very SAFE and Enjoyable Holiday!

🙌🙌 I am so glad to hear that you've gotten the car back. Thank you for the great reviews.. I learned so much about the tricks and the Keyfob, that help a ton.. Watching your videos was better than reading the manual lol.

I'm thrilled you got your car back Nick!!! And thanks for sharing all your cool tips and tricks. It's helped me enjoy my car even more 😊

Awesome Video Nick !!!! glad its back and looks great .

I am so glad to hear that you've gotten the car back. Thank you for the great reviews.. I learned so much about the tricks and the Keyfob, that help a ton..

I was about to ask you the other day. Glad it’s back. Congratulations 😀

Congratulations bro . I hope you enjoy . Be safe . Love your videos . 🎉

I have this car and love it. Feels like a genuine upgrade from my Fiesta MK8

Nick, Congratulations on getting your car back. The repair looks amazing. Thank you for your videos, and I look forward to your 2024 content. Have a Merry Christmas!

Well done Nick on the lovely fixed car. Feels a swift return. Hope the insurance did its job. Even more exciting is the new puppy! Looks beautiful. Hope he/she will appear in some future videos! Also hope he/she doesn’t make a mess in the Merc 😊

Congrats, glad it's fixed! I just got the Berline version of the A Class thanks to your videos and great advice.

Congratulations on getting your car back - love this channel - you have made understanding my new cars features so simple and enjoyable :)

Great that you have your great car back , its new again 👍👍have fun with it and i am waiting for the dashcam info , have a merry Christmas 👍✌️🙋‍♂️

Glad to hear you got the car back, right before the holidays! Awesome video as always 😊

Nick, I’m so grateful for your videos. I’ve been following you for quite a while now, and I’ve learned so many tips and tricks from watching them. Things that, otherwise you’d never know because for some reason, Mercedes don’t give any information as to what’s actually built into their cars I’m on my 3rd Mercedes and wouldn’t buy any other , ( although in my experience, Mercedes dealership service really doesn’t live up to the hype ! ). The fact that you make these videos yourself is amazing , but it’s your presentation, your style , your personality, that really keeps me coming back for more. And for that , I thank you. ( btw , glad you got your car back in tip top condition ). I think you made an excellent choice on your spec btw. I’ve got a 2019 c220d coupe premium plus ,and am wary about using the panoramic sunroof because of issues on my last car , and if I’m being totally honest , I can’t really feel the benefit of the Burmester sound system ! Keep up the good work Eddie

Awww i am so glad you have got your car back Nick ☺. Please be careful out there🙏🏾

Congratulations ,on getting your car back.❤

Thanks Nick for all the videos you had done and a early merry Christmas to you and your families and of course your new pet ❤

You are my go to for information on Mercedes. It’s been a great source of information and tips. I didn’t think however that I would end up copying you! Three month old EQA and I managed to bash two doors badly. My fault. However all fixed now and back as good as new. Keep up the good work.

Nick I got the same car as you but mines a 2 yr old exec A35. You should have got one because it’s such a blast. Engine pros outweigh the premium benefits by a mile

Well done Nick , have a great Xmas.

Congratulations, keep enjoying it but with care, Nick ❤

Hi Nick, glad you’ve got the motor back, I’m looking forward to your review of dash cameras in the new year, also one for next year, mobile phone holders to fit Mercedes, particularly my GLA 250e. Have a great Christmas and keep up the good work 🎉

Hi Nick! What a great idea to review the dash cam! It's a must-have gadget now to have in the car! Sorry about the crush, but very happy that your car is now been fixed and no one got hurt. Thank you for your videos, you helped me a lot with your tips! Thank you very much and happy holidays! Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year! :)

Glad to hear you have your beloved car back.👍🎄

So happy for you! Enjoy your like new car!

Nice video again Nick. But moreover so pleased for you that you have your treasured drive back. Happy Xmas & a safe New Year buddy.

Very very interested in learning about the built-in dashcam option for my car as I really want one but do not want to add external hardware, thx Nick! Thank you for all the content, you have been a lifesaver after my new C300 purchase! Happy Holidays to you and your family!

Nick, glad you got your car back. Just started watching and subscribed. Waiting for my 2024EQE 500. Should arrive in January. Love your show. Very helpful!! Cheers Steve

Heartbreaking….! Glad it’s back in one piece, looks like they did a great job! Love the looks of the A Class - mine sadly had the most rattley dashboard ever! On my second GLB 220D AMG now - brilliant car! Your Mercedes ‘how to’s’ are fantastic - cheers!🥰😂🍷🍷

Great news you got your car back. Hope you have a great Christmas mate 😀

great you have your car back Nick, great channel too. I have a new CLA200 night edition and love it. Im very interesed in the dash cam info your about to send out on the New Year. All the very best.🎄

Bro that was fast I’m glad you got it back man I hope you are happy

Well done for getting your car back . I have fitted BlackVue 970X LTE, 2 channels . But I have previous version of BlackVue which been trying to sell apart of one to keep as replacement in case my current one packs . Get notifications and videos to the app any time an event happens .

Awesome Nick! I spent £300 on a black gloss vinyl wrap for the roof and wing mirrors on my A200 and it totally changes the look. It looks much sportier now, similar to my GLC200 with the Night pack.

Congratulations, I'm glad she's back.

Glad the car is back! 🤙

I just bought my Mercedes 180 premier plus about 4 weeks ago and installed my next base 522 with external rear camera. Unlike you Nick. I wired it down the driver pillar then across the underside of the dash and along the underside of the tunnel. Bored a small hole into the storage compartment and fed the cable into the usb c outlet. Also ran the exterior rear camera cable along the top of the door pillars and fitted the rear camera sited straight out of the rear window. Works a treat. I also installed the speed cameras as described in your video. Could not have completed that without your advice. Thank you. My trade in car was the A200D and I watched my Top Gear videos in that car, but my new car would not recognise them. Found out that my old car did not have Apple car play and accepted AVI and mp4 but new car because it has car play is configured to mp4 only. I just converted my AVI Top Gear videos to mp4 and they play perfectly. My set up is as follows. The compartment over the tunnel houses my next base dash cam in one usb and the speed cameras usb in the other. The Top Gear pen drive is in the usb slot under the dash. Thanks for the very informative videos.

I'm very happy for you. I hope you never encounter such a bad situation again. After all, you work hard too, take care of your own business. Say hi to your car 😀😀👏👏

Just in time for the Holidays Congratulations…🎄❤️🕎 Safe travels to you…!

Hi Nick - new to the channel, and very much enjoyed this video, and your others, invaluable information for a new c300e owner! Your car looks fantastic and glad all signs of damage have gone. Great to hear you will be covering the MB Dashcam priced option at a later date, as it is something I am considering, but not much information on it.

Well done Nick waiting for the dash cam reviews can you do reviews on front and rear cameras have a good Christmas 👍

Nice to see you get your car back nice and pristine, Christmas present I suppose 🙂. I got the Nextbase 322GW front & rear, got it fitted by a Nextbase engineer as it seemed quite fiddly to hide away the wires to the rear cam, they did a pretty good job. Looking forward to your dash cam review. Have a lovely Christmas 🎉

I use a FitCamX dashcam (for my IONIQ 5) but they do custom dashcams for every vehicle that look OEM in the rear view mirror housing. Highly recommend!

Glad u got your jam jar back Nick - think I’m on my 4th A Class now!

Nice video Nick, I bought a good dash cam and with a kit I piggy backed a fuse in the passenger footwell and feed it up like you have. I looked at the Mercedes one ( I have a white 250 A class) it for me was too expensive. So I wired my own one in. It’s excellent quality. Made by Transcend.

😍😍😍😍😍The most beautiful mercedes car

Lovely car. Well done 👏

Nick, congratulations on getting your car back. I agree you should do one on the Mercedes own dashcam.

Congratulations mate! please be always careful driving this beautiful car ;)

So made up for ya Nick ya got ya car back. Someone crashed into me years back i had the scirocco storm GTI. I was gutted, it was a right off but i bought it back and got it back on the road. But it took ages to get sorted. So looking forward to you doing the dash cam revue I've been meaning to get one since i bought my car about three years ago, still haven't got round to getting one. So will be interesting to see your up coming vid to see which is best and i might eventualy get one ;)

Loveing the cinematic stuff now,really well done. Iv been looking at the new nextbase cameras out,where you can remotely activate them and look to see what they can see as mines the same as yours it doesn’t hold the charge any more iv had it for years now.

NICE TO HAVE YOUR CAR BACK, STAY SAFE

Hi Nick good video have a Merry Christmas. Glad the cars back and OK now. I’m using a Garmin mini DC 2. As I paid for the inbuilt one but you have to remember to turn it on every time you start the car. I put it on a shortcut but still forgot. Then I car came at me on the wrong side of the road and I had to swerve up the pavement luckily a low kerb no damage!or pedestrians as in the countryside. So I bought the Garmin. It’s so small you can hardly see it works well. Cheers Stuart

Hi Nick ! Pleased to hear you’ve got your car back. It’s looking fresh out of the showroom. Good news indeed 👌👍

Great video. Excellent you have your car back and in top condition. It must have been heart breaking to see your new car smacked like that. I've the B180 as Mercedes Australia only imported the 1.3lt turbo for the B Class (they have stopped importing the B Class entirely now - bad decision as us oldies want a higher riding car that the A Class and don't want an SUV). I reached 4.6l/100km on a trip from Sydney to Brisbane - never thought an ICE car could get such fuel economy. Thanks heaps for your channel and Merry Christmas

I'm glad you have the car back Nick. I have an old dash cam also and probably will be replacing it soon. But can you not plug into your boot 12v outlet? I have mine that way, and it's very neat. Only cable is visible in the boot behind the rear seats. But I will definitely be looking out for the dash cam reviews. Have nice Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Hi Nick, glad you’ve got your car back looks great. I had the same back in 2013 it was same colour with a panoramic roof. I’m interested to seeing the video on the Mercedes dash cam , I’m thinking of purchasing one ( can’t stand wires everywhere.) Great vids as usual. Merry Christmas to you 🎄🎄

That's great! Looks perfect! I have a 2024 GLE and it has the same MBUX and a mouse pad. I have the augmented reality and I got the dash cam too. You know that a couple weeks ago, Mercedes Me notified me that my car was hit while parked! So I hurried over and apparently the car in front of me must have tapped the front bumper. Mercedes Me says "Damage Detected" but I don't see a scratch thankfully. Thanks for the tip about the PIN code! I did not know that! I am woefully delinquent on reading the owner's manual. I'm going to turn that on, next time I get in the car!

Happy and safe motoring, Nick.

My favourite channel

Great videos, Nick. BTW, in the US, the dashcam can be set to automatically start. I have a 2024 GLE with NTG7.

Hello Nick, It would be amazing if you could do a review of the facelifted CLA. Thanks. Good news about you car. Nice colour choice.

Hi Nick really pleased you have got your Mercedes back, that was a very quick turn around from insurance to full repair. One thing I wanted to ask is you mentioned fitting a dash cam to the front of your car, I would also like one for the rear, will you also cover this. I know you can use the Mercedes camera in the car for the front but there is not one for the rear. Love your you tube channel, good luck for 2024. Cheers Glenn

Nick, replace your rear Mercedes badge with a gloss black one. I did this on both my white cars and it makes a huge difference. I got mine for about £20 from eBay.

Hi Nick! So glad you’ve got your car sorted now. I’ve got the same model, the same colour but my interior’s Sage Grey - love it! What do you think of the Sage Grey? You mentioned in your video that you plug your phone in to charge when using Apple car play - couldn’t you just use the wireless charging dock? Hope you’re enjoying the sound system - I think it’s fantastic! Thanks for the tip about disabling the pin - I won’t need to bother with that anymore!👌Have a great Christmas!

Hey Nick Merry Christmas from Australia 🎄🇦🇺 Great content & very informative, love the detail you go into! Looking forward to the dashcam video next year. I have a BlackVue camera which has front & rearward facing cameras in my 458 Italia. It also has a backup battery pack with motion sensors that allows for about 10hrs of recording while it’s parked. I’m looking at purchasing the Merc CLE when it launches here in Australia in Q3 2024. I hope you do a comparison between aftermarket dashcams & the built in system in a Mercedes that utilises the surround cameras. From what I’ve seen on content such as yours & others is you have to manually start it every trip, which would be a pain. Hopefully Merc has an update to allow for auto recording. Anyhow once again have a great Xmas & glad you’ve got you Merc back in new condition👍🏻 Cheers Steve

Haven’t used the aug reality feature in my car yet, it’s one I totally forget about as with the heads up display!! Haven’t used that yet either. Interested to see whether the Mercedes Dashcam is worth it. I like my Nextbase one (622GW) but their app is awful, trying to retrieve footage via the app is a total nightmare !! I’ve had my EQA for 2 months now but really do need to sit down and play with the features! Glad to see your car is back in one piece!

Glad you have your new car back repaired & you would not know it had been damaged.

Mercedes repairers do a very good job, nice!

Hi Nick. I was looking to change my car but didn't know what car to buy until I saw your informative videos. Last Monday I purchased a one year old A200 Amg Line From Chesterfield show room. This purchase is all down to you and one week later im so happy with my car I've got the biggest smile ever. Thanks so much and im happy your car is sorted.

Lovely tidy car.

Hi Nick Really interested to see the built in dash cam review, been looking at it for a while but unsure whether to purchase it!

Hi nick.. love the videos .. can you please make a video showing how to adjust the headlight distance on a 2022 cla class, i feel my lights are not showing enough in front which driving at night is hard ... ive youtubed a way to change, also chexked mercedes webaite manual, even in the car settings but cannot find how to change it

Hi Nick… question regarding the headlights… is there a way to adjust the rake of the led dipped beams as mine seem to be pointed too low towards the ground? There isn’t a scroll wheel like found in other cars. Thanks

Hi Nick. Just wondered how you get on with the steering wheel buttons. I only deliver these cars so don't get chance to try much out, but I do struggle with scrolling on the new set-up

Thanks

Does the a class amg line premium plus have a heated steering wheel? I can’t find any information if it does.👍

Hi Nick, me again. Sorry, I've posted my reaction too soon. Didn't watched the whole video before I did. But when I saw you beginning to talk about augmented reality in your car I knew that I was too fast. An expert like you on Mercedes cars must know the option of a dashcam when you have that. Next time I'll watch the completed vid before posing anything 🫣. One of your Belgian fans 🇧🇪🇧🇪. Keep up the good work and looking forward to your result on the Mercedes dash cam. Happy Holidays

Hey Nick, very sorry that you had an incident. But its all well that everything is fine at the end. I hope you are enjoying your car, have you found out where they hid the sunglasses place which used to be near the cabin lights at the front. But I couldn’t find it in my GLA and even my friends couldn’t find it in their new class c. So if you find where is the place for shades, do let me know. Have a happy and safe cruising. May the roads take you to all the cheerful places. Happy holidays 🎄

Hi Nick, do you know if EQV has built in dashcam or can be purchased ? I was driving Mercedes almost 40 years, and never had any other car than Mercedes, so you made a good choice and got the Mercedes. I watched all your videos so thanks for that.

Nick any idea how to show petrol prices on the satnav and turn off dynamic select appearing on the main screen

Hi Nick,why are there no mudguards on the latest cla180?. My car drives on poor roads and gets dirty so often

Watch out for motorbikes coming up on your side😢😢😢 Good video Nick

Thanks! I Try not to travel in my cabriolet convertible, AMG 2023 inclement, weather…😂

I put a FITCAMX in my GLB, seamless looks like the manufacturer put it in.

Hi Nick, just recently bought a Mercedes Benz CLA 220 (2022) I’ve watched so many of your videos, thanks for the helpful tips and tricks advice it’s helped me loads but one thing I can’t find is how do I adjust the headrest, it has sports seat can’t find any buttons that I can move it forward or backwards?? Thanks

Hi Nick, love yr videos just one Qn, you say in this video that yr not an engineer, mechanic but do you work as a salesman in a Mercedes garage as when I fist saw yr vids they seem to be all merc vids. I’ve had 3 mercs my currently one is a late amg sports. Keep up the good work Nick. 👍

Hi Nick. Such an interesting video! At 10:43 you refer to the dashcam available on your Mercedes A-180 class. It is my understanding that this is an after-market feature, which was not present when I purchased the car. I am telling you this because my Mercedes C-Class 220 does not have it (it was an after-market option that I preferred to put off), but by asking the dealer where I bought it in 2022, I received a negative answer, there is no possibility to mount any Mercedes dashcam (possibly only web-cams such as Garmin, etc., which however are not viewable on the car's MBUX). Could you please give me some advice? Your reference to augmented reality increases my interest in having a dash-cam!

Nick re: dash cams can you review a wireless one if they even exist ? Car looks great.

Good morning Nick, this morning I wanted to reverse out of my driveway but could not. The car stalled, as if the brake was still on it. Something then snapped and I could drive off. Do you have any idea what this is or should I just go to the garage before something really breaks.

Hi Nick, I bought the dashcam app on my 2023 EQB, but couldn't get it working consistently. It would often not detect the new 64GB USB type C drive i bought. It worked twice in 14 days, before I finally gave up and asked for a refund. I did contact Mercedes support, but never heard anything from them. Also tried the USB in exFAT and NTFS formats, no difference. The USB works perfectly in my Mac and Windows desktop. Have you ever heard of this issue?

Hey nick. Does the reversing camera constantly open and close on your new car? Mine does it when I slow to under 15mph, so opens at roundabouts and traffic lights for no good reason. The dealer says it's supposed to do this, but it has to be a fault.

Glad you have your car back all fixed. On one of your earlier A class reviews I noted the problem I have with the rear camera opening and closing multiple times every time the car is started due to the camera having to go through a calibration sequence. MB say there is nothing that can be done about this but it is quite noisy and extremely irritating. Now that we are in the winter with dark nights I have discovered that the camera can’t complete the calibration in the dark so it opens and closes constantly instead of about 4 or 5 times and this has now become intolerable. I intend contacting MB about this again but I wondered if you have also noticed this and do you also find it extremely irritating.

I got a touchpad .i got cla digital white also but it looks different

I thought you had to plug in to use car play - is there a way to go wireless?

I have a 2020 A class SE. And I’m now deciding between AMG line executive A180 or A200. Why did you choose A180? And does the removed middle touchpad really make a difference? I don’t want to regret it

One can turn off the PIN, but if one has multiple profiles, is it a separate pin for each?

Hi Nick, just finished watching your vid, Just Got My Car Back. I was puzzled when you said you had disabled wireless car play in order to be able to charge your phone. Does your car have wireless charging? Regards Paul W

Hi Nick, don't you have the option to activate the dashcam of your Mercedes? Could be useful if you could 😎.
