C204 Secrets Thread
#76
I found that the Canadian C models can do this if you leave your parking lights on during the day (the one directly to the left of Auto) and leave your front DLRs on. Only downside is that all the instrument panels light up as well but that's a small tradeoff.

In mine there's no button to leave your DRL's on when you put the main switch on the parking lights as you've said above...most markets only have the swicth for the rear fog lamp.
There's got to a techy who can come up with a way of getting this lighting arrangement happening for vehicles which don't have the extra switch for the front DRL's

2012 C350 Coupe
Not really a "secret," but discovered today when getting in a very hot C350 parked in the sun all day that opening just the mesh headliner drops the apparent temperature in the car by about 10 degrees. Apparently a lot of heat gets soaked up by that black mesh.
Also discovered that when you pull or push the roof button far enough, there's a slight click and it becomes auto open or close. No click and you have to hold it until it opens or closes.

If your brave enough to try it....there may be something in the Engineering Menu which can enable it. :P
"End Call" + "#" + "1" for 3 seconds.
HW Settings seems to be a logical place to start.

Would be nice to be able to switch on the DRL's at the same time as the parking or C lights are on.
When I get some time I may try going into that engineering menu and without making any changes just have a look at what it all looks like for my own curiosity.
Actually I may even hassle someone at my MB dealers service department next time I have a chance to drop in

I'll tell you this though - the C lights are not even half has bright as the DRL's. I thought it was just me being picky but even my buddy confirmed that the DRL's are much brighter and can be seen from afar whereas the C lights are not noticeable until you're closer to the car. It's the equivalent of leaving your lights on during daytime....just doesn't stand out as much.

This is a great radio feature in our cars if your driving in the USA.

If you keep hitting the radio button you will see that it goes from FM to AM and WB. Stop at WB change the channel to maybe Channel 3 or 4 or 5 and you will hear the 24/7 weather report.
