adding keyless go to 2010 e550

hey forum-long time lurker--new 2010 e550 owner. Had a question. Was looking at a jeep the other day brand new and the salesperson actually pulled out a "keyless go" and just clicked it into the ignition switch which looked very similar to the switch on the e550. I had no idea it installed like that and then I found this thread.

https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/...-key-hole.html


I dont have keyless go but want to add it. I know when I walk up to my car with my key fob and touch the handle it unlocks. Does this mean my key is keyless go ready and that I should just be able to click a keyless go switch into my igniton? If so--whats the part number!

Black W212 E550
Welcome to the forum I believe you will find it a great source of information and assistance, post some pictures when you get a chance if you haven't done so yet.

Incorporating any MB features in a heavily computerized car like the W212 is a complex task, one of the few people most MBWorld forum members recommend for that is Steve at https://mbworld.org/forums/members/1384-mbenznl.html he can provide you a kit or a few times a year he visits the US for installs.

Good luck and keep us posted on your progress and the cost.

If your car unlocks when you touch the door handle and your door handles look like this (they have a chrome strip and the small indent which is the lock button), then yes you have Keyless Go. Your car should have had a removable button in the ignition when you bought the car. Many dealers remove the buttons and hide them because people will steal them out of the cars in the showroom. If you did not receive a button when you purchased the car, have your dealer give you one.

door handle pic

here is my door handle pic. It for sure unlocks when I walk up to the car with the key and my ignition is in the same place as yours. My 2010 handle looks a little different

Yes, it's the same, you have Keyless Go. Mine looks different because its a picture of the rear door handle. Only the front door has the key hole.

You definately have Keyless Go and your car should have come with the button, make the dealer give you one.

I don’t think Keyless Go is a standalone option on the E class.

So if you have all of these options then you definitely have keyless go.And the chrome on top of the handle is the p2 package.
So just by looking at your handle I would bet that you definitely have keyless go.

They are the useless IR sensor. You have to point you key fob at it to lower/raise your windows.
Hey MB here is a Useless POS that you can cost cut.
Cost cut that and give me back my "chirp"

I know this post was pretty old, but i was wondering if you Are still able to show a list of options on my 08 E350, w/ AMG options by vin#? I know my vehicle is pretty loaded with options, and most options are obvious, I'm just wondering what I have or may not know about and would like to have a complete list. Thanks .

Also do you know If it possible to contact MB for a replacement dealer window sticker?
