keyless go
I have a 2014 mb E350 sedan, do i have keyless go? I have since entered my vin in the mbdata app, thank you for that advice. I do not have keyless go. As for the sassy comments, I’ll keep it to myself.

Can you get into your locked vehicle, without touching anything else than the handle, that is without touching your keys to unlock it manually?
Can you open your trunk with just a swipe of your foot under the bumper, right below the license plate?

Are you serious, or just pulling our leg. If you know what keyless go is, you'd know right off as to whether you have it. As pointed out, if you can open and unlock your car without touching keys, then you have it.

Relax, I’m reading about all this keyless entry and waving my foot and some blogs are referring to all the mb’s Have. I’m just asking if you know. I bought the car a year ago, love it but never looked anything up. I guess I don’t have it.

Very easy to tell if your car has KEYLESS GO. The door handles have a little indented square (and if you touch the doorhandle with the key in your pocket, it unlocks, that square locks the doors when you touch it). Your car may not have the push to start button as the button is removable and 2 different dealers told me they remove them often in these cars because "the old people that buy them get confused and just want a key". But you could always buy a replacement and pop it in. IIRC the foot kick trunk open was part of a different package so your car may not do that necessarily.

You do not need to touch a specific spot on the handle to lock. Just touch the exterior of the handle to lock with any part of your body. When you insert your hand inside of the handle, the car knows you are attempting to open the door. The auto trunk release is usually found on Keyless Go equipped cars, but as you state it is a separate option.
EDIT: Confirmed via owners manual:

Page 83, you must touch the inner doorhandle to unlock. The square is convenience closing so you are correct you only need to hit the handle to lock, but if you touch the box it locks the doors as well as closes the windows if they are open (page 100)

Yes. When I said insert your hand inside of the handle I know you have to touch it to open. The handle clearly knows whether you are trying to lock the car or open it based on which side of the handle you are on. I lock mine every night with my **** as I shinny by it in the garage and touch the handle.

All other silliness considered, there is the matter of the push button in the ignition. You can run a keyless go MB with the key in the ignition -- if it's one of the handful of keyless go cars on the planet with a lost button. But the presence of the button over the ignition is a sure sign... LOL

I was just looking at some questions and answers on an electronics retailer's website regarding an Onkyo 6 disc CD changer I purchased for my home audio system. Someone asked if the unit had it's own internal speakers.

Yep. It appears we've spent more bandwidth participating in this thread than the OP has spent the last year learning about his car. I knew better than to get sucked into this thread, and yet I've posted in it twice, now. Silly me.

No AMG unfortunately, and we'll just leave it as that
This is not technically true. One can have the push button start functionality (option 893 KEYLESS START) without having Keyless-Go functionality (option 889 KEYLESS - GO). Thus, if you have Keyless-Go, you will have push button start; however, having push button start doesn't necessarily mean you have Keyless-Go.

I don't see any mention of code 893. The fact hands free access (kick to open trunk) wasn't available at launch explains why when I was looking for mine some cars had it and some didn't. Depended on the build date.
