If you need more space to operate in the engine bay and don’t want to remove the hood completely you can remove the hood struts and you will find a piece of metal that blends in with the regular hood hinge and they will secure the hood in place at almost a 90° (Their on both sides)

That is awesome! Just like all Mercedes hoods. I never knew this - thanks for sharing!

If you leave the car in neutral reverse or drive and turn it off it will apply the parking break on 10-13 on 14-16 if you leave it in drive or reverse and turn it off the gear *** will put itself in park.

Yes! I nearly got out of the LR4 with the shift still in drive. Parking brake came on all by itself.

OK so obviously now I need to go out and test this so I can get the cheap thrill, too! This and the 90º hood brace are new to me.

One thing I found recently was that in the audio section of the menu there's a "CD Changer". That however is not the cool find... you can actually upload up to 10 cd's into it. There's actually no physical changer.

I also recall reading in the manual somewhere that if you get out of the car in park with the hazard lights on you can operate the air suspension with the key fob. I forget exactly the which buttons do it so maybe somebody else can chime in on that.

Its intended for towing and attaching/releasing a hitch.
