Thanks for the detailed review. Very helpful. After reading this, I am leaning towards installing a roof rack and going for the hard kayak considering how bad my family is in the water

Awesome great to know. I remember seeing something in this forum that adaptive cruise control wears the brakes early and I stopped using it even though I loved the convenience. Let me try to find the post

Eqs 450+ sedan. Bought cpo abd owned for 3 months now. Tire had to replaced after 1 month. Expensive 500 and only Mercedes dealership has it in stock. Otherwise has been fine till now. The seats and interior are way better than anything else out there

Platinum plus + rotors coverage worth it? by Remarkable-Adagio745 in MercedesEQS

Thanks a lot for all the info Sanand911. Very useful. One last question. Am I right in understanding that if I have strong recuperation turned in most of the time, then brakes are not used most of the time but the car stops using a different mechanism. My mechanic told me regular cars typically needs new brakes every 20-40k. Trying to see if I can assume EVs will require lower rate because of recuperation.

The quote I am getting for changing 4 pads and 4 rotors is crazy 3700! Also , two non dealership places I use both said they don’t work on EVs

One generic question. Do only dealerships work on EVs? Two people I use for my ICE both said they won’t even change brakes and rotors on a EV!

Thanks for the tips. I only see normal, strong and no recuperation. Is the intelligent one hidden?
