Interesting and fingers crossed it works. We used to do this in the 90's with Saab Turbos unplugging the ecu to re-educate it's brain!

Hi Matt , I’ve got a late 2013 E220 estate and it’s quite nippy off the mark . I also get mid to late 40s in normal driving , not sure why yours seems sluggish I hope the reset helps 👍

@paultaylor9652 2 года назад

I think most auto boxes have this feature in one way or another Matt, some require a battery disconnect.

@markonmotoring 2 года назад

It will be interesting to see if this transforms the driving experience. We used to have to do something similar years ago with Mercedes trucks as the gearbox would sometimes decide it didn't want to select gears.

@louiseelle3615 11 месяцев назад

I have a c220 cdi amg 2.1. It’s a 2015 model. Will I be able to do this with my car? It seems to be in the wrong gear a lot. I think the gear sensor made need replacing as it’s had a check engine light on and off and has been in limp mode once. But I figured this couldn’t hurt to try. It won’t damage the car if I do it wrong wil it?

Will the reset help eliminating a jolt in a specific gear shift ? Or is it only shift point reset ?

@100pyatt 3 месяца назад

After waiting exactly 120 seconds you should hear a buzzing sound coming from the transmission. Once that buzzing stops you can proceed to driving

Is it working with W213 ?

@jrgrouse Месяц назад

June 2024, just confirming that I have just done this and my 2012 E63BiTurbo has never felt this good. It’s used to chop down to first gear quite harsh and also did a really poor mid throttle shift into second gear which was embarrassing. I was thinking of the worst case scenario but honestly this has hugely changed the car for me. Mine must had picked up so bad tricks and learnt them.

@P4ULC71 2 года назад

very similar sequence to the vw/audi dsg reset .)

You forgot to wait five seconds fire the ECU to reset the TCU. That is REQUIRED for the transmission reset.

Just had a thought, what does it do if the car has multiple drivers, would one have to do this everytime one drove it?

@furiousteabreak7892 2 года назад

@Bratfalken 2 года назад

Did you check with previous owners that they hadn't used any addative or the wrong fluid. I know my old Chryslers where extremly picky on what atf it needed. With the wrong fluid these modern gearboxes get's the wrong friction and can in turn grind down them self until they start running in limp home mode!

@furiousdriving 2 года назад

I dont have their details, only that it has full Mercedes main dealer history

@DoubleZeroGarage 2 года назад

Used to own a Mitsubishi legnum, they also have active learning transmissions, they just the battery disconnecting overnight to reset. On those it takes about 500 miles after the reset for them to learn your driving style

@nafeelahmed 9 месяцев назад

Hi.thank you for your video. I am facing an issue in the driving mode and I am confused on how to fixing it. See, when we shut the engine and stert again , the default driving mode selected is the "comfort" which gives a lighter steering wheel and thr lighter acceleration paddle, but in my car, which is 2021 E300, I feel a stiff steering g wheel and stiff acceleration paddle. Is this a gearbox issue or a mbux glith or I don't know what. Can you please help me. The driving experience is totally affected ad a result of it. Thank you

@furiousteabreak7892 7 месяцев назад

I think they always default back to comfort if turned off more than a few minutes, you might be able to change that with a code reader like Carly

@dancoleman5865 2 дня назад

You just change the dynamic select mode? Such a basic thing how can you not figure that out.

@nafeelahmed 2 дня назад

@dancoleman5865 I guess you do not understand. Even if I do that, which I already know, the motion of the steering wheel is not as smooth as how it was when I bought the car. Thanks for your reply

Why does it always require some ridiculous performance of peddle pushes and button presses to reset something when the reset could easily be in system menu on the radio display under a pin code.

@richardhunt1384 Год назад

Think they make these procedures not easy to stop Joe Public doing themselves. I work as a mechanic and reseting service lights in some cars is horrendous unless you know the trick or get the sequence exactly spot on. Jaguars are a prime example.

Now why wouldn’t they give us a tiny beep or click sound marking the reset. It would have been reassuring for us and cost them next to nothing.

@huwdavies6650 2 года назад

If it hasn't already been done, it may be worth having the transmission drained and flushed. It may improve the way it works. Take it to a specialist as Mercedes would probably say it doesn't need doing as it's sealed for life.

@Rich-on6fe 2 года назад

As a person unhappy with my sluggish engine (old Volvo diesel) I can contribute that some of my unhappiness hinges upon whether it is behaving as designed or whether it is a little poorly. If poorly I would like to make it better, whereas if this is as designed I will have a clear decision as to whether or not I can live with it. As it is, I'm still trying to work out which of these two positions it's in and until I work that out I cannot decide whether or not I will be able to live with it. In the mean time, at least it goes and is relatively economical.

@paulie-Gualtieri. 2 года назад

@@Rich-on6fe What engine is it ?

@Rich-on6fe 2 года назад

@@paulie-Gualtieri. It's the 8 valve 1.6 diesel from 2011. (D2 DRIVe) It's just had a set of recon injectors which work fine, but have not changed its woeful throttle response. It needs a solid 2 seconds of right foot before I release the clutch. Really frustrating. But once the turbo is turning it goes - and the economy is right - so I don't know whether to think it's poorly or just designed to be sluggish for the sake of fuel economy and dpf life. I've had it a few years and my feeling is that it's worse than it was - the human ability to accommodate something like this means I'm just not sure whether it used to be less bad.
