Passenger headrest adjustment
Like anything new, I will continue to have some questions.
We noticed on the initial delivery of this vehicle (GLE AMG 43 W4) that there is no power headrest adjustment on the passnger side - only a manual adjustment.
Is this correct and is there some option we should have ordered to have this?

Our GLE43 Coupe does NOT have power passenger headrest adjustment. But, we do not have the option to save the seat settings on that side either. I think that power headrest only comes with the seat memory option...

Passnger power headrest confusion
1. First of all, I have the AMG 43 SUV and not the Coupe - I'm wondering if this makes a difference in having that feature.
2. I don't need to add the Power front seat with memory option - since I have the P3 package which I think includes this feature.
3. We called MB Customer Service and they said to get this feature you need option "399" which is the ventilated contour seats.
Our vehicle has the "button" for the power passenger headrest on the door, but it doesn't move.
So how can we determine which is correct?
Thanks!

I was the one who specifically asked the site administrator to create a separate "Coupe" sub-forum. Situations like this are the reason why. The differences between the Coupe and SUV are much more than just a sloping rear end.

Yes, that would be correct. It would look ridiculous if that button was missing on the one side. Plus, production costs would be higher for MB. It would require two different designs of door trims in each finish.

SUV sub-forum
Sorry, I didn't notice in your profile you had the SUV. Yes, the options and packages are completely different in the SUV. You might have better luck on that forum, since they're more familiar with your vehicle.

Same options?
Are you saying the options/features are the same on the standard GLE SUV compared to the AMG 43 SUV, or compared to the Coupe? I know many features on the AMG 43 SUV are in fact not on the standard GLE, and that is why we opted for the AMG model.

The bottom line is this. They all share similar DNA. I just believe the Coupe is more like a "cousin" to the AMG GLE43 SUV. While the AMG GLE43 SUV is the GLE SUV's more muscular brother. Just my humble opinion. But you know what they say about opinions.
You could also argue that the AMG GLE43 SUV is identical to the Coupe, just with a different rear end. Now, I'm sure everyone is thoroughly confused.

I believe the standard features of the AMG GLE43 SUV are similar to that of the Coupe. I think a lot of the features of the AMG GLE43 SUV are standard when compared to the GLE SUV. But assuming one ordered the GLE SUV, opting for those missing features, it would be essentially identical to the AMG version, minus of course the performance enhancements that AMG provides. Would they still be different vehicles? Yes, but not nearly the difference between the SUV and the Coupe. These two have different bodies. Further evidence of this is the fact that the GLE SUV and the AMG GLE43 SUV are at the same link on the MB website, while the Coupe is at a completely different link.

That's a hard question, with no definitive answer. You can start with the GLE SUV forum. There are AMG owners there with the exact same vehicle as yours. If your question isn't answered there, you can always come here. What I've noticed is that the Coupe forum seems to be more performance oriented, since everyone here has the AMG. Once you've owned your vehicle for a while, you'll know the exact differences between the models. This will help you determine which folks are better equipped to help you. I frequent both forums, because a lot of the questions pertain to all GLE models. However, I spend most of my time answering questions, rather than asking them. I enjoy helping new owners like yourself. The longer you own your vehicle, the less questions you'll have. I fall into that category. When I do have a question, I always come here, because I know the person responding has the exact same vehicle. There's no confusion. I don't have to worry about getting an answer and then discovering it's not correct because my model is different.
