I looked through the SL forum for a subscription thread.
I have seen where some features that were previously included in MSRP, are now subscription based.
I am wondering if that includes remote start, and remote convertible control.
Anyone have input?

Remote start is included by subscription, although you get 1 year free if you buy new. I don't have remote convertible control on my SL43, don't see that as an option in the app (paid or not).

Subscriptions???? Perhaps MB should concentrate on reliability Maybe start paying the poor buyers a fee for the beta testing to offset the tumultuous depreciation

Sungkyo;
I don’t see remote convertible operation.
I do see remote lock, but that is available through your key fob.

Remote lock is included for free, even if you don't pay for the premium subscriptions. As indicated before, I don't believe there is a remote convertible option anymore, paid or not.

Okay
Thanks philenan78

You can open and close the top with your key fob. There’s YouTube videos that explain how to do it. The key actually has some pretty cool features that most people don’t know about.

Here in Australia a dashcam was a downloadable software for around $400 AUD. That is good. But otherwise what you refer to is included with the vehicle for the first 3 years. My car was a July 2023 build.

If I didn’t already make my position clear. Once you buy a car it’s yours. You shouldn’t have to subscribe to anything else. If it came off the assembly line with it, it’s your property.

Pop-up ads! Does it include pop-up ads and an "accept cookies" option?
