In my 2010 E550 the AUX battery does other than just allows switching the gear. When my AUX battery went out, that is just recently did, the car did not have HOLD function, nor did the Distronic cruise control work. Charged the battery and all works. It is obviously time to get a new one soon. It has been ok for about a month now since re-charging but for how long?
