Possible Solution for Remote Start Issue

So I was experimenting with the remote start on the app and every time I would do it, it would always give me an error saying my sunroof or windows were open. Well i think I figured out why it keeps saying that.

Every time I tried remote start, I would keep the pano shade open (but the glass closed). I tried it twice within 2 days with the pano shade CLOSED and it worked! So far it has been working and haven't had any issues remote starting my E from the Mercedes Me app.

Long story short, if your remote start has not been working, then close the pano shade (if you have the pano option on your E).

Just thought I'd share my "breakthrough" with everyone.

Im sure remote start will always work on my E 43 because I ordered it with the most important option...... THE TRUNK MONKEY!

The update number/version, etc number would be nice and mine is hit or miss but with more hits likely over misses which is nice. But I would rather it work 100% of the time and to be a bit quickerwould be nice too!
