The most informative video about MB I've found so far. Well done!
Thank you for the comment! Really appreciate it and it has made my day.
Ive been looking for videos about this car for 3 weeks or more now,and this was the best video,i knew everything about the car,thank you.
Thank you for the comment. This has made my day.
Also just wondering, is that Luca Modric in your profile photo?
Absolutely amazing video, super detailed, really loved it!
Thanks for the comment. This has made my day!
@@DrSaahb How is the maintenance and service bills of this car? Is there anything that we need to look out for, when buying a used example? Here in my country, the A series are known to have ABS Sensor issues.
Depends on the year. My car is nearly 9 years old so I had to pay for some repairs (due to wear and tear) for front bushes I think which was atleast a couple hundred pounds. I get the car serviced every year at my local dealership. I am betting something else will go wrong due to wear and tear of a 9 year old car.
Great video, in depth and exactly what I was looking for 👍Thank you

This video was so useful, thank you!
Thank you for the comment. The A-Class is very similar to the GLA. The GLA is on steroids when compared to the A-Class (taller and slightly longer). I have other videos in the GLA playlist which hopefully are helpful too.

Great 👍🏻…
Thanks for the comment 🙏
Great video Iam a new A class owner😊
Thanks for the comment. This has made my day! Welcome to the A-Class gang. What specification did you go for?
Cool…!
Thanks for the comment.
Well done
Is there any other video about w176 I could watch
Thanks for the comment! This has made my day.
Please watch the A-Class playlist and after the sixth video, you will find videos related to the W176. Let me know what you think of them please?
@DrSaahb Thanks! It was very nice, you almost covered entire things.
Parktronics park assist you didn't cover, your car is on the higher trim level, is that not included in your car?
Do you have any idea, is that included in A180d 2016 Sports Premium version?
How do we know is that included?
Thanks for the comment. I do have a separate video on how to use the auto parking feature. Check our my A-Class playlist to see that.
Are you buying a car from the UK? If so please check out my summary guide which you can download for free and check out my other video where I go through the specification of this car in a separate video.
Hi, great video, thanks for posting. Only thing you didn't mention was the rear screen heater (which also activates the heated wing mirrors). 😊
Thanks for the comment 😊 LOL totally forgot to mention it in the video! It is such a useful feature when its super cold outside.
Hi there, great video, love this colour of the A class, does yours have dab radio fitted.
Thanks for the comment. On this generation, for UK customers we had to order DAB from the factory when it was being built.
@@DrSaahbIf you could mention this feature it would be great, thank you
@misesandra9377 definitely next time.
Exhaustive explanation indeed!
Just one note regarding the way to return to automatic mode from manual during drive. Do not touch the gearbox lever, just press and hold the '+' paddle for a couple of seconds. This is the officiai method as per instructions manual.
Thanks for the comment. I was told by the sales guys that this was the way to change it back to auto mode. It has always worked.
I barely use the paddles to be fair. Do you use yours allot?
I did try the “+” paddle for a couple seconds but the gear change did not feel smooth.
@@DrSaahb I've just had a check on the interactive manual and you are correct, the gerabox lever is an alternative. There's even a third way to return to automatic gearshift, pressing the DYNAMIC SELECT button. Here is the manual quote:
"To deactivate: pull steering wheel gearshift paddle + and hold it in place.
or
Use the DIRECT SELECT lever to shift the transmission position.
or
All vehicles (except Mercedes-AMG vehicles): use the DYNAMIC SELECT button to change the drive program.
Mercedes-AMG vehicles: use the DYNAMIC SELECT controller to change the drive program."
@@DrSaahb I use paddles only in certain conditions, mainly driving downhill or getting closer to a pay toll in highway, in order to exploit the engine brake. Sometimes in overtaking phase to get a more efficient gear change around 4000rpm. Automatic mode in fact brings the engine rounds a little too further
I am so glad you checked this! I was abit worried I was damaging my gearbox and advised everyone the wrong thing 😂
I do let the car coast when going down hill for the car to recharge the battery and apparently it is more economical to do that too.
I have downshifted a couple of times when driving on the motorway to overtake but that is it.
Great video I've just got the amg premium plus.. But you didn't cover waveband and how to change.. Reason being mine has fm and mw but no dab.. I think it's a factory extra which is a bit tight.. But for some reason there's dab presets, don't work by the way .. Which is baffling..
Thanks for the comment. You have a really nice specification. Which colour did you go for? Yes dab was an option from factory.
Are you able to change from FM radio to AM radio?
@@DrSaahbyes but I want Dab radio.. Better choice and better selection.. Shame I have to plug my smart phone in to use android auto to get it.
Yes it is abit annoying that I also stream through Bluetooth or Apple CarPlay. Also thanks for watching my other video where I show how to use the Radio. Hope it helped.
When I put my car to automatic lights, the full beams are always on even when driving in the city. I keep getting flashed by oncoming cars to dim my lights. Any advice? Is there something else I need to press to set automatic lights on so that they’ll dim when oncoming traffic comes? Could you explain the light dial please! Thanks for this video, super helpful 😊
Thanks for the comment. Watch this video from 5:19 and make sure your switch is set like mine in “Auto”.
Then at 6:02 I show how to put on the Automatic lights and if your stork is forward then your automatic full beams are on. If you want to switch the automatic full beams then just pull the stork towards you.
Let me know how you get on please.
Mine is a Japanese import and the Navigation tells me how to get around Tokyo!! How can I change it to Ireland please? Your video has been absolutely useful and I have saved it for future reference. A great teacher, thank you.
Thanks for the comment. I am not sure how to change the satnav location settings. Does the satnav only work when the SD Card is in?
@@DrSaahb Thank you, apparently the Japanese imports have settings which cannot be changed (per Mercedes help), so I am using Apple Play which would not be my preference because I have to connect the phone every time I use the car.
That is interesting. To be fair I use Apple CarPlay every-time I drive my car.
👍❤️
Thanks for the comment 🙏
How do we buy the packages you put on your summary guide?
Thanks for the comment. The packages were options that could be ordered for UK cars. So they no longer build these models from new. Therefore I would recommend you buy a car with the right package for your needs.
Just a quick question mate are there real parking sensors that beep on these cars or is it just the reversing camera that aids with reversing.
Thanks for the comment. If you have parking sensors then they will beep if you get to close to a car or a wall.
If you do not have the sensors then use the camera and grid lines to park.
Check out my specification video to check what features are options and you can also download a free guide to see what is standard and some of the main options too czcams.com/video/bphGORlbyP0/video.htmlsi=6vnXW2rnGQBpM3E-
Hi, I want to change my radio presets to off. How do I move down to the bottom row to turn them off?
Thanks for the comment. Next week Friday, I should have uploaded a video which answers this question. Let me know how you get on with it?
I cant wrap my head around the choice between A160 / A180 / A200 since they all have the same engine. My gut feeling says: A200 will need more maintenance since we ask more power from the same engine. Any thoughts on that?
Thanks for the comment. It depends on your driving style. I have a relaxed driving style so the A200d fits me and my lifestyle. My wife prefers the 220d because she likes the more instant throttle response.
Maintenance will be the same whichever version you go for unless it is the AMG models with AMG engines.
Hi dr Saab I own a Mercedes A class w176 automatic 2013 as u mentioned in video that to park the car u just need to press P on the stalk and turn off the car the car will automatically apply parking brake I’ve tried many times but it doesn’t even if I take out the key car doesn’t apply parking brake itself so I have to manually do it every time which is a bit hassle keeping in mind that parking brake switch is located at unconventional place. Can u help me out please.
Thanks for the comment. I think for Facelifts it does this feature. I would ask your local dealership to double check. 2013 is pre-facelift so it might not do the same functions as my car.
@@DrSaahb thanks for replying yh u might be right but to move off i can just select D and car moves i don’t need to pull the parking brake button that’s why i was bit confused why its got one feature but not the other.
Yea that does make it abit confusing. Let me know how you get on with your local dealership please?
@@DrSaahb yea I will let u know bro thanks.
Hi there, Can you please tell me how to access reverse camera I cant find it on my car, Thanks.
When you select the reverse gear it should appear on your screen. What year is your car and what country did you buy it from?
England and 2015@@DrSaahb

Hello Dr, i have the A180 d 2016. I'm wondering if I can cast my phone to the infotainment using the Android auto? I've tried to based on some research I've done but the infotainment just keep saying connecting. I called my local MB to have this fixed for me and they are quoting £185. I took the car back to the dealership where i purchased it from as it's still under warranty and after checking this feature they refer me back to MB. Any tips on this would be appreciated. Thanks.
Thanks for the comment. Android Auto was available for some cars in 2016 but I think became standard after 2017. Depending on when it was built then it may not have the feature. Sometimes cars that have not sold for a year can be sold the following year.
I would test other Android phones (maybe newer ones and see if they connect). You could also test if your phone works with a friends car that has Android Auto to double check that there is no issue with your phone.
If newer Android phones do not work then double check if your local Mercedes dealership can get Android Auto to work for you at £185, then that sounds like a good way of getting Android Auto.
Many thanks for this 👌🏾
Let me know how you get on 👍
Sure I will.
Is there a way to activate parking guidelines? Recently got a a200d premium 2018 model however when I engage reverse I have no guidelines appear on my camera. Check the OM and couldn’t find anything on it
Thanks for the comment. I have never had this issue but let me see if I can find the setting. Is it ok if I let you know tomorrow evening because I won’t be using my car till then?
@@DrSaahb thank you mate appreciated : )
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I did test the reverse camera on mine and I couldn’t remove the guidelines. Do you think you are on a different camera view? There are two options. One gives guidelines and the other camera view gives you a wider view of the rear with no guidelines.
@@DrSaahb hi mate. It appears mine is stuck on widescreen view. I try select “normal” rear view but nothing happens I’ll take it to MB when I get a chance and have them look at. Cheers for getting back to me.
It does sound like you did change the camera. If you want to double check and watch this video from czcams.com/video/AsxItynbtXc/video.htmlsi=HLBoDYCjCzNCYiwa 11:39 and then at 11:57 you will see how to change the camera style.
Let me know how you get on please?
I have a 2017 a180 and when i lock my car , interior door handle led lights dont turn off, if i press the lock button again they turn off.Is there any problem
There will be a setting in the “Vehicle” option to change the settings of the door handle lights. Unless the car has after market lights fitted.
@@DrSaahb thanks for helping
Let me know how you get on 👍
Hi, i bought the a250 sport from 2017 and if i put the car in reverse it doesn’t show the camera? Does that mean that my car doesn’t have a reversing camera?
Also my car has a apple car play plot but if i hook up my phone, apple car play doesn’t show up on the screen and it’s not working?
Do you maybe know anything about this model?
Thanks for the comment.
Which country are you from?
In the UK, an A250 2017 would definitely have a reversing camera as a standard feature.
I would recommend you contact your local dealership and ask them to check the specification. I think on the specification sheet they provide it should state “smartphone integration” or “Apple CarPlay”.
Let me know how you get on please?
@@DrSaahb Hi, i am from Germany. I went to the dealership and he said if the reversing camera doesn’t pop up when you put the car in reverse it doesn’t have a camera. Do you maybe know where the camera would be placed on the car? Then i could check if the car has a camera
On the infotainment screen (middle of the car screen), go to “Vehicle”.
Next go down to “System Settings” and select it.
Next scroll down the list till you see “Reverse Camera” and select it. If you do not see in the list “Reverse Camera”, then you won’t have that feature.
Now you should have the option to click on “open camera cover”, it you have the option.
Then when you look at your rear number plate, in the middle, you should see the camera cover open.
Hope this helps you?
@@DrSaahb Hi, thank you for the detailed answer. I went to my local mercedes dealership and I asked them. Apparently my car doesn’t have a reversing camera nor apple car play. But they said that apple car play can be coded. So I booked that service but it‘s really pricey (700€ in germany). The reversing camera would cost 2000€. So I decided to not book that 🥲
Apple CarPlay is definitely worth it. Yea I would agree not getting the reverse camera feature fitted.
Nice video. I'm a new owner of a w176. The message envelope if constantly showing on the top of the sceeen. I'm not sure why. Does it think there's an SMS or is it a car system message?
Thanks for the comment.
The envelope is just telling you there is a SMS message. Nothing else to worry about there 😊
Which model did you go for?
@@DrSaahb I got the a220. Fitting an imi-1000 to it tomorrow 😎
In this video you referred to parking assist and that you'd make a dedicated video. Just wondering if you did that as I wasn't able to find it.
What year is your A220?
I have not had a chance to do it yet. I am planning to record some footage in a couple months time
Is it worth buying a preowned 2018 A200d hatchback in 2024?
There are pros and cons. Depends what you need from a car? What features do you like or need to use? Also need to consider running costs of a used car.
@@DrSaahb Someone here in India is selling it for ₹ 16.49 Lakh (19.8k USD) 38000KM driven 1st Owner and also insured . Is it worth buying at this price? looking to buy for family.
@AlfaazzMusic I am not sure what the Indian market is for cars. Might be worth checking with your local Mercedes dealership for cars and advice. They might have a car and they might sell it with warranty and other things.
@@DrSaahb They don't have this particular model in stock that's why I looked up in the third party market.
@@DrSaahb while looking for more cars I also came across an Audi A6, which is of being officially sold by Audi India as their certified preowned car. It's 2016 model first owner 45,000 km driven. Diesel AT. it's priced at Rs.14 Lac. Is this one worth buying? I need your suggestion and will be very grateful🙏🏻❤️
I cant find the light settings about when u open/close the headlights are open
Thanks for the comment. What do you mean? Sorry I don’t understand what you are trying to do?
@@DrSaahb i am talking about the welcome lights
Please watch this video from 26:00
At around 26:31 You will then see the option of “Interior Welcome Light” and also “Exterior Welcome Light” if you have the option fitted to your car.
Let me know how you get on please?
Thanks for your help, the problem was solved when I switched the light setting to automatic. There is one more question I want to ask. When I pressed the start button this morning, the engine did not start and all the lights on the dashboard started to turn on. Then I removed the start-stop cover and started the vehicle with the key
Next time, try putting the car into power on mode (so all the dash lights cone on) and then press and hold the brake, then push the start switch to turn on the car. Let me know how you get on?
Where do you put your phone whilst driving
Thanks for the comment. I put my phone in the armrest and plug it in so I can use Apple CarPlay.
I will be doing a video in the near future on how I use Apple CarPlay in the car.
@@DrSaahbwhat about when your not using carplay
I like to leave it in the armrest even when not using Apple CarPlay. Then it is out of my vision. Otherwise I might want to use it 😂
Some people put the phone in the storage area in the middle of the console.
I have seen someone buy a phone holder that uses the disc area to hold up the phone.
@@DrSaahb yes 😂😂 thanks for the replies good videos subbed to the channel
It’s weird they didn’t really leave a space to keep the phone in eye vision would’ve been a good spot if they extended the middle of the bottle holder might need to look into the disc holder
Thanks a lot 👍
what engine
The car in the video is a 2.1 diesel engine. Check out this video for the full specification czcams.com/video/bphGORlbyP0/video.htmlsi=NZprQhZmptD265jk
I just wanted to know how to change the radio volume. No such luck...
Thanks for the comment. I don’t think I show how to use that but where you have the “ON” button, it is also a dial which you can rotate. Hope this helps.
@@DrSaahb ahhh, thanks! Pick the car up Saturday & didn't figure it out on the test drive!
Fantastic! What specification did you go for?
@@DrSaahb thanks for asking! Silver 2013 A45. 43,000 miles. 1 spec in aus, sun roof, paint & big rear wing were the only options. Didn't get the wing :-) cheers
Wow and congratulations the A45 is a special car! You will absolutely love it. Silver is a great colour choice. The infotainment will be abit different to the one in my video because I think 2013 was a pre-facelift but most of the switches will look and feel the same. I do love the rear lights of the pre-facelift. Let me know how you get on with it.
Hi i have a200 mercedes how can use car play please i think my car doesn't have car play Thanku
Thanks for the comment. What year is your car?
2018 mate
If u want i can give u My reg car aswell
Does your car look like my blue car or does it look like this car in this video? czcams.com/video/Eb79vgp7_MY/video.htmlsi=QwC20HctA75wnCXO
Like red one mate
is yours a a200d?
Thanks for the comment. Yes. Do you own an A-Class too?
@@DrSaahb nope but thinking of buying one. are they reliable. any expensive repairs?
I have been really lucky with my car. Just servicing (including gearbox service) and normal wear and tear stuff likes brakes and wipers. Check out my other video which shows what options you can have etc czcams.com/video/bphGORlbyP0/video.htmlsi=8uMF9-b4DDWTB5hZ
Let me know if it helps?
@@DrSaahb thanks. how much roughly do breaks cost. trying go compare to my focus😂
I can’t remember but i think fronts were about £150-£200 including labour to fit them. I normally need to do this kind of work when it’s been serviced at Mercedes. If you call your local dealership they can give you a better idea.
