My 2014 507 Sedan has that option as standard also...on my build sheet so not sure that is the same thing.
"916 engine support cooling" Also have something called "919 Cooling Amplifier" Not for sure what these mean exactly... |

Yeap in Abu Dhabi
|
Would want the parts breakdown cost wise - there is a lot of labor on this and to be honest if you are the least bit handy - you can do yourself.
|
^^yea, I agree with that. It's coolers, not machining a block or welding a cage.

This was taken after about 45 minutes of "spirited" driving in S+. I was on empty back roads so I had "clean" air and there was no sitting at stoplights in traffic. I realize that the track is obviously a much, much more rigorous environment but thus far, I have been very pleased with the car's cooling capabilities.

4500$ parts (shipping and taxi included to UAE) and 1000$ labor
|

Anyone hear back from a dealer in the US on this as to price and whether or not it will be done at their (MB's) cost or yours?

yes. it's the anti-fall-asleep feature (don't know the official name). I had that on a loaner once, but for some reason couldn't get it to work.
Attention Assist? Funny thing is my car has that and lane tracking but those icons are never on (even though the feature is) (also the one with the car in the lanes) Did they change it for 14? |

Its a software feature that is intended to alert you when the car thinks you are getting sleepy. |

The lane tracking is a car in lanes in green. I know mine is off but I turned it on the other day for testing and it came on. Coffee cup is always on. |
I turned off the lane nanny. It's so damned German. "You seem to be changing lanes but your signal is not on! We will buzz you." I'm surprised they only vibrate the wheel. I guess the electrodes to the genitals didn't pass DOT regs.
It's annoying enough that the blind-spot monitor beeps if you do signal and don't leave an extra 100 yards. It always beeps if you're in one of two parallel left-turn lanes, with cars in both. I'd turn it off too but I figure this one could actually be a useful alert some day. I tried to feign drowsiness but haven't been able to trick the coffee cup. |

Didn't even realize a car was there and it caught me, saved me from a big accident. Though I do agree about the two parallel left-turn, that's always annoying but definitely appreciate the system as a whole. Coffee cup, don't even know if it works, never did anything to set it off despite trying. |

As the other posters below indicated, that is in fact the "Attention Assist." The cup lights up, chimes, and wavy lines appear out of the top of the cup if the car detects I'm driving unusually (i.e., detects that I'm falling asleep at the wheel). It is supposed to act as a warning. The car is saying, "Pull over and wake your ass up."

US cars have a 'line of meth' icon and some crazy biotch voice that screams at you

They should be on, otherwise they are off.

Default is on. I turned it off 2 hours after getting the car, haven't thought about it since.
