Quite amazed really at the length and a commonly discussed issue with little in the way of a FREE answer .
Two free ones .
Disconnect the main battery connector to the negative terminal
( this goes stop 'HOLD' from working ) or
pull the auxiliary battery fuse .

My dealer does need a special passcode to enable the Engineering Menu, they need input from MB HQ for this.

It is possible to code the Eco Start/Stop, the parameter setting is in the Motor Engine module. The options (maybe car dependent), are something like enable, disable, and Last Setting. It requires coding using the Vediamo/Caesar program that can edit directly into MB modules. The problem getting into the ME module is that it requires a seed-key (password) to actually write changes. I wasn't able to do this myself without help from a friend who had the seed key generator. Anyway, mine now remembers my last setting, so if I turn it Off, it says Off until I enable it again - a much better option.

but be in touch before your order. You are to send your vin to this guy - codding for W222 restyle and before restyle is absolutelly different. Work perfect. I made official servise after that and it was no any question from dealer as for guarantee. I really forgot about that crasy system.
