Remote Start - MBRACE2

I placed an order for a GLE Coupe a few days ago, but I forgot to ask about remote start. For those of you that have a GLE Coupe, does it come with MBRACE2 with remote start capability? If so, how well does it work? Thanks.

yes it does. it's via your phone. it's nice but needs works.
1. let me turn on my heated seats and steering wheel
2. can take upwards of 1-2 minutes to start so once you hit "start car" just leave your phone on and put it in your pocket. It does fail 25% of the time which is annoying. 10 minute timer. the car turns off when you unlock the car which is dumb IMO.
3.still better than having nothing or having to be withing visual distance. the fact that it works on a cellular signal is very nice. I uslually activate when my shift is over and it's warm by the time i walk across the hospital to my car

Agree, it needs work. It's 50/50 whether it starts on the 1st try, but eventually get it.

How do you turn on the heated seats and steering?
