Hey everyone, I made a video on how to enable SBC hold on a us spec w211. Check it out if you want.

Sorry for asking. But, what does sbc hold do?

skylinrcr01

It's a feature that uses the SBC system to hold your car so you can take your foot off the brake at a light. Once you are stopped and in drive, you sort of jab the pedal, SBCH will display above your odometer, and then you can take your feet off the pedals. Once you want to go, you just hit the gas.

It'll also hold the car from rolling on a hill.

So it's something that is totally pointless unless you're too lazy to keep your foot on the brake pedal.

****ing stupid **** if you ask me.

Merc's are creature comfort cars... this is just one more thing. I use mine a bunch. Instead of going into park to do something just stab the brake and txt away or whatever...

Starbucks window stab it there too to get a cup of joe on the go without going to park

To each there own... If not doing work you dont have to is lazy, I am lazy as ****oki

SBC-H for lazy stops at a light or where ever

SBC-S never used but it supposedly good for stop and go traffic

Yep, this. It's pretty handy now that I have it.

Does programming ROW also disable the front side markers (which I don't want to mess with)?

Thanks

skylinrcr01

Yeah, it does.

Does this apply to 2007 E63 also or its different setup?

skylinrcr01

e63 doesn't have SBC, which is better in all honesty. Your abs pump won't go bad.

Another Q: Does the procedure activate SBC-S as well as SBC-H? Does SBC-S work if the car has Distronic (my guess is yes, but want to double check).
