Hmm, does not ring a bell. But you can try disabling firewall anyway. It does no harm.

Hi, thnx for the gr8 post, I recently bought mb c6 wifi chinese clone with a SSD which came with xentry 2023.6 and dts monaco 8.14, and some other softwares, is that enough to start? Anyway im going to do this next weekend hope I manage doing it write coz this eco start/stops drives me crazy on w222 2018, sometimes makes the car run in a strange way like being weak. I also want to deactivate sos msg if you have any idea about it but this post will be my start point

I push the button to disable. The green light goes off. Or switch to Sport+ mode. Works well for me.

I cannot. I am a newbie to all this MB coding. Took me a month reading forums and experimenting with my car. All because start/stop drove me nuts. Otherwise I am quite lazy

Software sounds enough. Xentry needed to find/confirm specific ECU. All the work is done with Monaco. Specific Xentry or Monaco versions are not critical. Good luck

Search YouTube for amazing road tv amg menu activation. There are a handful videos which might help.

Thanks, I know Amazing Road and I have followed several of his videos apart from the linguistic difference but in the end, since I have little knowledge of these software, I preferred not to risk this time and now I have AMG activated and 50 euros less on my account (via MBtools). However, the interest in learning about coding remains and in the future maybe I will be more sure about how/what to do. Thanks for your interest

Good morning, another small question... so I'm trying to deactivate eco start-stop and in my case I found a difference in the variant coding panel. In my CR42 Ecu I don't find the Last Mode instruction but simply DefaultOFF and DefaultOn respectively in the first and second line. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong??
Thanks in advance

What is CR42 exactly? File name, module name reported by Xcentry or something else? How did you arrive at it? What MB model do you have?

S560 w222
Hi, I managed to do some changes through dts monaco on w222 2018 s560, IC temp from F to C, remove seat belt warning, remove speed warning, radia range from USA to ECE but I am stuck on how to remove SOS error, check in HU55+IC222 but no luck, anyone knows how to make sos inoperative go away? I just want to make it (not equipped or not available). I went through MED40 as well but couldn't find it. using mb c6. remote connection help will be appreciated.

@mbw2020 , @realeric Great info on variant coding in this thread!

Do either of you know if I can use DT Monaco to set SCN coding for a module to its OEM configuration?
I'm working on a 2018 S560 coupe (217) and need to re-code the left headlamp controller to see if it will address some reported faults.

Thanks.

Can anyone share their copy of the DLLs?

A Google search these days leads you to vendors selling it and private forums with all kinds of restrictions on downloads for new users and/or join fees. The internet ain't what it used to be.

The dlls you are asking for cannot be easily shared. For obvious reasons. It took me 3 weeks or so to find everything needed. I did not keep track of what I found and where.

Thank ghoodness for this post. the charge sensor fix ain't great, but at least it seems to work.

I spent half the day trying to find & install all this software madness. all references are hidden behind a bunch of pay-forums. This "just google it" stuff doesn't work any more.

Also I realized it's probably smart to do this all on an old beater laptop that you'll never connect to the internet, plenty of stuff has trojans slipped in that windows defender spotted, and maybe some more that defender did NOT spot.
