How did you dis-able the "e-gas" thing (and what is that). I am about ready to do the same. I can live without the cruise control if I have to. And why is there even a connection between the two? I don't understand how Mercedes does things at all. I am quite capable of troubleshooting and fixing problems if I have a clue of how they are supposed to work. I have been working on my own Bimmers for almost 30 years (even including valve jobs) so I am no dummy, but I don't understand this Benz thing at all!

Perhaps we will both get lucky and find a super tech on this site who can shed some light on these issues. Good luck.
