Parking Pilot Issue
Hello,
I noticed when trying to use the parking pilot to look for a perpendicular spot, it does not give me the option to reverse park into the parking spot anymore. Does anyone know a fix for this, or if Mercedes removed this feature with a software update?
Thanks

With perpendicular spots, it seems it cant pick them up anymore and on the rare occasion that it does, it will not give me the option to reverse park the car.

I got my car today, but unable to connect it to the remote park app.
the car seems to lose the connection when searching for my phone (?)
All other Mercedes me functions work fine (both app and web)
any ideas..?

What i meant was i was unable to register the car in the remoter park app.
but fixed it now:
I deleted the Bluetooth connection between the car & my phone
(ie in iPhone clicked "forget this device" under bluetooth settings),
and then i reconnected by letting the car find the phone.
once that was done i was able to connect the remote pilot app.
but not sure if it was just a tempore bug or whether it was the above that fixed it...

My Parking Pilot says it is scanning for parking spots but, in three months of periodic attempts, it has never found a single one -- despite being surrounded by available spots each time. Am I doing something wrong or it is simply broken?

Unfortunately in the States that feature is not available. When I first heard about that I was excited to try it out, but the dealership told me it would not be enabled on US cars.

The online manual for the 2018 E400 on the MBUSA web page includes instructions for the remote parking pilot. The online manual for the 2018 E63 on the MBUSA web page does not include the instructions for the remote parking pilot. I was hopeful this was an indication that my new E400 coupe would have it. But, I have been advised it will not, unfortunately. Still not available here in the USA.

I got a new 2018 E400 coupe yesterday. I was looking through the manual in the car's Command system. I was surprised to see Remote Parking Pilot instructions there, including instructions on pairing a phone for Remote Parking Pilot.
Is this information present in 2017 E Class Command systems?
Or is it's presence in the 2018 E400 coupe an indication that Remote Parking Pilot is, or will be, available in 2018 E400 coupes in the USA?
Thanks!

i have a PDF for 2017 american/canadian cars and it does not mention remote park
(Where as the french hardcopy that came with my car does)
IF they make it available on the US 2018 model i guess with an update they could
unblock it on older cars as well.
I tried it yesterday in my car park and must say it's pretty impressive... useless, but impressive :-)

I remember back in 2016 they would show the remote parking pilot a lot and they made it look like one of the key features. Looking back all those ads and promo videos were all European spec and what not. Also, I do not think they will unblock the feature for the 2017 E class but who knows. Hopefully, they can do something because I really like the thought of being able to pull my car out of the parking spot if its a tight squeeze.

In the driving assistance section, this document mentions Remote Parking Pilot for the US.

Very interesting. And still unclear if it will eventually be activated in all E300s retroactively.
This doc also suggests that there are virtually no changes to the 2018 model over the 2017 model, save a few trim additions and options package shuffling.

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is gaining a lot of attention as being the closest in the industry to full automation. It drives, monitors, and parks, all by itself. What Mercedes-Benz failed to mention is that the United States version will not come with all the same technologies right away. One of these technologies is Mercedes-Benz Benz PARK PILOT.
