2025 GLC 300, (formerly) 2018 SL550
I have a leased 2025 GLC300 with AMG kit, and, after reading this thread, I completely agree with everyone's dissenting opinion here. I love everything about this car except for that infernal sound interface. Would not buy another Merc with swipe pads that don't have the ability to quickly go through my XM faves. After this one I'm out!

Finally picked up my car this week and as a SiriusXM listener and frequent channel switcher I was definitely concerned!
With the info above I've come up a work-around I can live with but I definitely consider this to be the result of sloppy untested programming. I actually thought about waiting for the "facelift" in order to get the new steering wheel, but the swipe volume control they replaced with a roller wheel really doesn't bother me too much, it's the 4-way swipe pad and they actually retained it on the new wheel anyway! And no guarantee they fix the software either...
Pretty great car otherwise
