So i brought my '14 wagon in for some scheduled maintenance - which includes a new windshield from the FWD half axel the popped up on the highway and just smashed the drivers windshield - got LUCKY there - and they gave me a GLB250 little crossover.

I noticed that the the dash display does not have any spindles on the speedo or tach. Is this thing 100% drive by wire? It had no road feel at all. I popped the hood and did not see a master cylinder but I couldn't see if it had a steering column heading to the front axel.

I had an Audi loaner once with full DBW and i hated it. do car companies make their own DBW or do they buy it from the same source?
