I like the layout of the configurator but I'm noticing several bugs. Issues selecting a combination of options, the total MSRP is often not updated. The developers have some debugging ahead of them but good to see this on our web site.

Another bug that I found was that it would not allow you to select driver's assistance package if you have selected energizing package..
Also selecting Energizing package plus does not automatically add the air balance package.

There seem to be limits on choices, things that have to be added or deleted, that aren't on the DOG and that my dealer didn't catch (if its correct). Did things change since Feb. 4?

I would think the DOG is correct and the Configurator buggy. It’s also possible that Mercedes has adjusted some items going forward. My build has a few things different too. It now shows Burmeister included in Premium 1 as it did in an earlier DOG but then changed to a required add for more $. It doesn’t require the warmth and comfort package, my build has standalone rapid heated seats not an option, etc. I’d give this Configurator a few days to let them fix it.

It is a little disconcerting that they put this live with so many obvious bugs. Normally one would expect that it be tested and then released so the rumors about Tech problems seem confirmed. Possible scenario....”Boss says I want that live on March 1” Tech support gets it done!

Rear cross-traffic alert
"Active Parking Assist with PARKTRONIC assists the driver when searching for a parking space and when entering or leaving parallel or end-on parking spaces. In the case of end-on parking spaces it is active in both forward and reverse direction. It maneuvers the vehicle into the selected parking space and back out again. In the process acceleration, braking and gear-changing is automatic. In combination with Blind Spot Assist, the system can warn the driver of cross-traffic when reversing out of end-on parking spaces, and also initiate automatic braking if necessary. Parking Assist PARKTRONIC gives a visual and acoustic warning of recognized obstacles with the help of six ultrasonic sensors in each bumper. These can be in front of, to the side or behind the vehicle, and are recognized at speeds up to approx. 6 mph."

Did anyone else note that when you're driving down a street (in larger cities I would presume), MBUX uses your sensors to send data back to their head-end database of available parking spots on those streets and then sends that data to other MBUX-enabled vehicles and displays available parking spots on their Nav maps. Really cool tech!

Bugs
Another one - the photo of the Load Sill Protector is not correct. All VPC accessories are now priced.

It should be in the Configurator if the DOG is correct because it’s one of two options required for my selection on a build requiring Multi Contour Seats and......I had to have the Warmth and Comfort or I could select just the Rapid Heated Seats. That’s not a requirement on the Configurator so will have to see how it shakes out now. Maybe the DOG was wrong or changed later.
