Hi ,, I'm a new GLK350 owner .. picked it up a week ago, what a great ride .. I have a question is about A button next to the gear selector allows the driver to select a Sport or Comfort shift mode. The Comfort setting is used for normal driving, which involves smooth, soft shifts and relatively low-speed shift points. When the Sport mode is selected, shift points occur at higher engine speeds, and shifts are faster and crisper. I read that you have to be in park to switch from the C ( comfort ) to S ( sport ) is this correct?? Somehow it does not seem right..

 

Yes, I read the owner's manual,,, from what I read it says you have to be in park. Maybe I'm reading it wrong

 

It does say that in the manual. The trans can be switched into either mode while in D. Ive switched from C to S many times while driving, ive never been told not to do that. You would think that if they didnt want you to do that, they would make the switch only work when in P and not in D.

 

Makes sense,, tks for affirming that
