Consider that even though I rarely drive Mrs. Dan’s W211/E320, her seating arrangement is quite different than mine mainly because of our different in height. With that in mind, I have seat/mirror/steering wheel positions programmed in the seat memory for both of us. Since she’s the primary

It's a matter of opinion. Stuff like this annoys me more than it impresses, but I understand that it could be convenient if you have for example two frequent drivers with very different seat setting requirements. My luck I'd grab the wrong keys and get squashed into the dash. On Tue, Feb 14,

I think you can set those keys to the preferences of the 2 users of the keys, maybe by using each key then saving settings. One of those links I sent yesterday had the manual online. I can dig into my manual in the wagon tomorrow or later today. —FT Sent from my iPad > On Feb 13, 2023, at
