No Manual mode on my "14 E550 sedan?
Is it just mine or every 14 e550 sedan doesn't have manual mode...I believe the coupe has it...doesn't really bother me much but it would be nice to have especially when doing roll races...is there a way to enable it?

Thanks guys!

My '15 E350 sedan has paddle shifters to activate the manual mode, does yours not have (maybe Luxury model) them?

My 14 E550 sedan has it. If I use either one of the paddles it goes into "M" mode.

Yes it does - just pull on the paddles at least that is how it works for me.

If you are talking about Sedan.
use pedal shift, it will switch to manual mode.
But it will not stay in M mode (It will quit M mode) if you didn't shift any gears in 10~20 secs.

But coupe has permanent M mode. Sedan doesn't
