GLC300 & X Class 250d Power
New Member Introductoion

Hi All, my name is Andy and I live in South West Queensland, Australia. I have just acquired the latest 2020 GLC300 4 matic SUV trading from a 3 month old 2019 GLC250 4 matic. I loved the 250 but I was disappointed that it did not have the MBUX system or android auto capabilities even though I had the full command system. Anyhow I was able to get a good change over to this new one and thoroughly loving it.

I do have some issues thought which include the auto exit/entry setting for the drivers seat, the steering wheel adjusts but not the seat. I also have issues with the rear door not always responding to the foot kick gesture for opening and closing and on my trip home with this new vehicle, whilst in distronic cruise control with the lane keep assist I kept getting the ( Red Hands and steering Wheel warning) even though both my hands were on the steering wheel. I am thinking I have some sought of software issue.

Any way it is great to join this forum and am looking to gather knowledge on this fantastic brand of motor vehicle.

I am on my third Mercedes which I totally love

Hi Andy and welcome. Pretty smart looking GLC you have there. I’m going to ask the obvious question before anyone else - what’s with those other cars wrapped in the plastic? Cheers.

Hi MBpippo, thanks for the welcome. The photo was taken at Mercedes Benz Brisbane new complex at Newstead after it had the Permagard treatment and I would say they are new vehicles awaiting detailing.

MBpippo Don't think so, going by reports the vehicles were stopped at the arrival points before delivery
