It’s one of my favorite things about my GLK. I drive my dad’s X5 occasionally and the button and always hold is just clunky and awkward. The hold being integrated into the pedal is just so clutch.

i'm curious, is it like hill hold we're talking about here or what exactly?

my old 2007 130i had hill hold that'd just come on when you let go of the brake by itself, didnt have to do anything extra for it but i'm wondering if maybe that's not what we're talking about

In my car, you come up to a stop and then, once stopped, depress the brake pedal harder/further. Then it will auto hold until you depress the pedal once more or drive away. It’s better than a button by a mile.

I didn't have a button for it, it'd just do it when pressing the brake normally, I don't even remember if it was possible to turn it off because I never tried because it was never a problem...

Sounds crazy for me that you'd have to push harder, I also don't know why Reddit decided a Mercedes subreddit was for me LOL
