My first 4,000 km's with the 2019 GLC300 4 Matic

Well we are over 4k kms now and I just did the first hand wash on her. Its a bit of a back and forth with the touch pads on the doors and such if you have washed one you will know what I mean! As soon as the water touches the door handles the doors lock and then unlock horn chirps ( if you have this on and enabled).

If you leave the key far away it wont happen but then if you have the self lock enabled the mirrors go in...LOL

Might have to disengage those items via the control panel in order to do a normal wash

Also another tip with the tv screen on the dash at night it can be rather bright, so I dialed down the brightness via the little wheel, and then just turned the entire display off, which made a big improvement , less strain on the eyes and better visibility outside.

Just leave the 'key' in the vehicle when washing it. Problem solved.

Tried that tip tonight, left the key inside while giving her a bath, and thinking even if she pulled a " Christine" on me and locked the doors I had my phone with the app installed so I should be able to unlock her. Worked like a charm, thanks!
