Is there any way for COMAND to automatically switch off when I switch the engine off with the button on the gear stick? And start back as well when I start the car?

Thanks
 
It should turn off when you open the doors

When I park up press the button on gear knob to shut off power the engine goes off but the command stays on till I open the door

Hope that all makes sense

That the drivers door
 
Gee, so simple. Thanks, I'll try and report back.
 
I think it should turn off anyway. You're not double pressing the gear start/stop button are you, when you turn the engine off? (sorry if that sounds like a daft question Alx, I know what I mean :))
 
No, no double pressing (didn't even know you can do that - what does double pressing do btw?).
 
On cars with Keyless Go (well, certainly on my 04 SL and 09 ML) the stereo goes off when you open the driver's door - not when you press the off button.

This behaviour works really well for me - I switch the engine off, finish listening to what I was listening, open the door and it turns off.

Tried the door thing - it works! Started the car and COMAND turned on too.

Great success!

Thank you.

Sorry, thought you might be inadvertently switching the car off and then the electrics straight back on to the first setting. In mine a quick press is like turning the ignition key to the first setting etc. The longer press starts the engine.

I am a Luddite, as others will testify to. Sorry wasn't any help :eek:
