Who else thinks this is annoying?

No. But get the ASR module to at least keep the exhaust valves open 100% all the time 👌🏼

Allegedly there is a TCU tune that allows it. I am investigating and will report back on it.

not annoying to me because of the amg drive unit.. I start the car with emotion start all the time and always have it in s+ or individual in accessory mode before I start the car. I LOVE the AMG drive unit. I believe Dsawyer63 has the ability to remove the eco start and start whatever mode you want it to or the last one it left off in when you shut down the car.

Someone posted in another thread.
Click start button twice with foot off brake pedal, select desired drive move then hit start button with foot on brake.

When I did my tune, I had them disable the eco start - so its OFF all the time ( the light will still come on the button if in C mode, but its actually disabled)
(was an extra hundred bucks or so added to my tune module)

I had this done as well but No light at all once you turn it off. Also done when tuned. Once you turn it on it’s on but once you turn it off it’s off until you want to turn it back on. That’s confusing lol but it works awesome.
