Discovered nice undocumented window feature
I play golf and like to open all the windows while I am loading up after my round. But I don’t want to open the sunroof.
Yesterday I discovered that if I held the “open” button down on the remote until the windows started opening and then clicked the “open” button just as they finished, the sunroof would not open.

It is most definitely a change for the better.
On my 2021 E450 I got in and started the car, rolled down the windows, turned off the car and then went back to unload my golf cart while the car cooled. In my 2024 E450 it is more convenient, and much more pleasant for my girlfriend who sits in the car while I am unloading and returning the golf cart.

On mine, if the weather gets too hot while I'm parked, the windows will open automatically about 1/2" all the way around, not sure if this an option or all 2014 E350 comes standard with this feature...

Even in my garage, one day it was really hot and I get an alert from my MB app to say that the windows are open. I went to the garage and sure enough the windows were open. I didn't think anything of it and closed the windows. Then one day I went to a city that was over 90 F, but I had the AC running when I was in a parking lot. I turned off the car and 2-3 minutes later came back to the car just in time to see the windows all slid down all by itself, that was how I found out.....

That would be a nice option as I'm sure most people that open their sunroof don't usually close it if they just go for a quick shop in the supermarket.... A pity that European models gets more options than we do, including self park, which would be a nice option as my garage is pretty narrow..

I tried it and it doesn't work. You also cannot close the sunroof through verbal command. Some type of safety regulation in the US that doesn't allow any automated movement of the windows.

It does allow you to open the windows and sunroof with the key by holding down the unlock so for some reason that's okay but closing is not. And still don't know why you cannot open the sunroof with voice command.
