With *** now being retired per regulations, I propose MB issue an immediate OTA to all of their cars that receive the OTA to make the setting remember the last setting it was on. Meaning, if you turned it off while driving, it'll remain off when get back in and start the car again, instead of defaulting to on. THAT would be a HUGE improvement!!!!

Keep in mind that Mbenz will continue to design their cars based on european regulations.
Also, Mbenz takes emissions very seriously, so my guess for the US market they still wouldn't allow you to turn it off permanently (just because they like it that way, lol). There are several other markets and countries that already have no regulations for AS/S and that has made no difference.
You can just code it off with help from @EleBest or @trigital ; both are awesome forum colleagues.
