If you want to totally deactivate all key buttons, I think only way is to remove key battery.

I have only deactivated trunk button for the main key and Keyless-Go part for the spare key.
no the keyless go is what I want to disable on this 4 button remote. but the method in the manual is a double press of the lock button. Doesn’t work. I’ve seen another methods that was a double click of lock and then another button. That doesn’t work either. Your method unfortunately doesn’t work on the 4 button remote either must be a diff key combination

I've pressed mine by accident. Didn't know until I found my (GLE 63S V167) tail gate opened only slightly, due to garage door within sensor range. Door will open but not fully if obstacle is detected. Needless to say I still don't want to try it...

The dealer has an easy fix to reprogram your key by double-clicking on the button instead of one long press. My dealer programmed mine for free.
