Even with the sprintbooster, the car adjust itself after a few days. i think its crazy that we spend this money on a benz and then having to "reset" the car to get some decent response from the car. I love the car but this "learning" behaviour of our car drives me nuts

I have done the 2 minute reset and find it works for a few days and then the car starts getting that slow response again.

Or, maybe there's a bug in your ECU and the dealer needs to replace it?

I used postion 2 of the key and pressed the paddle. waited for 7 counts and then switch key off and released the paddle . Kept the key in, After 4 mins of waiting there is no sound i heard fromt he glove box area. I have not driven the car yet to tell the difference. I think if some one post a video on Youtube explainng the process , that would be great.

If it's a true "learning behaviour' then what do you think it's "learning" about you? If you have to reset it every few days to get back that "feeling" then I submit you must be a fairly dull driver most of the time!

If a person drives in rush hour traffic and the average speed is 40-50km/hr then that is pattern that the car will learn. fact of life i guess.
