Just curious, what do you all assign this button to? ( I use it for the rear sun shade) and another post indicated that he uses it for the seat massage.
...just wondering...

Rear sun shade, if I'd have 2010+ I'd use it for massage James Bond uses it for Rocket launcher.

On a pre-facelift rear sunshade is pretty much the only option that makes sense (only my opinion of course).

There are W221 cars that do not have the sunshade standard, then some of the other options makes more sense.

I'd use for the massage, but the out of warranty $1400 I have been given as the cost to replace the leaking air bladder has me using it for the sun shade......

the mc dd seats are notorious for having all sorts of breakages and leaks. kind of sad that mb can't get it right. not like the seats are new to mb. i doubt i would want to fix them a bunch after warranty is out.

i use the * for rear sunshade as well.
