So, I discovered something interesting on the new 2020 GLC300's. The "individual" dynamic driving mode setting that you can customize has no option for enabling or disabling the eco start/stop feature. I believe this capability existed in previous model years where toggling the vehicle dynamics to "Individual" would recall whether you wanted the Eco Start/Stop to be enabled or disabled. Now, if you want to recall your individual vehicle settings for steering and shifting, you also need to press the Eco Start/Stop button to disable that. Maybe I'm wrong and just missing where this is configured?

I also noticed that some of the MBUX themes actually change the vehicle from Comfort to Eco and Sport modes and also disable the Eco Start/Stop or re-enable it. I was hoping I may be able to get around pressing the eco start/stop button by using themes, but it seems that custom themes can only be configured with ambient lighting and radio presets. I was hoping for more customization - maybe with an update.

Just press the button. It takes no more than a second. Come on!

Sport+ disables stop/start. I assume setting the engine to this in your individual profile will have the same effect?

There is a setting to allow you to recall the last mode use, which will set Start/Stop as per the last use. The catch - you will get a display on screen to TAP on the message - without tapping it will go back to Comfort. The annoying part is that you have to tap the screen - all other input methods don't work - Voice or both of the touch pads - great work Mercedes On top of that the message stays on the screen for about 5-10 sec. - very easy to miss !!!

Thanks! I just started playing with this feature and you are right - it’s easy to miss. Even easier if it appears along with the CarPlay message at the same time. Gives you 2 seconds tops - ha!

Heck... for $240 solve your issue - and makes ECO start/stop "controllable"

I think that is just for COMAND systems. I reached out to the seller and will let you know if they have anything that works with MBUX.

I discovered that if you leave your A/C on the eco mode will not activate. The reason I believe is when you come to a stop you still want the A/C to work.Try it and see if works for you.
