    W211: Can I leave the windows down without the alarm going off?

    The plasti-leather seats are proving very uncomfortable in this heat wave. They just don't cool down. Anyways, to try to alleviate this, can I leave the windows down while it sits in the office car park without fear of the alarm going off?

    Random choice of source when switching stereo on

    My 09 E Class has the COMAND system. It has the radio of course, and I have music on the hard disk, an SD card and on a mp3 DVD. Even though I may be listening to one source, such as radio, when I switch off, when I get back in again it regularly starts up with another source. I've not noted...

    How do I select Aux In?

    ...I know the answer is RTFM but I am away from work, no manual and want to listen to something on a long journey tonight! My W220 with Command has an Aux socket in the glove box, I have a connector cable, but no obvious way of selecting Aux. Is there a button staring me in the face that I...

    W211 Auto Dimming Mirror

    I was rather disheartened to find my W211 doesn't have an auto dimming mirror. I thought it would be a standard feature on a car of this class. Anyway, is one available as an after market item and if so, is it easy to install? (I have seen references to them for other models but not the W211).

    Support for Dual Layer DVDs

    Is anyone able to confirm whether the DVD reader in the NTG2.5 reads home burned dual layer DVDs packed with mp3 files? If it does work, what brand discs are you using?

    Dension Gateway 500

    I have an NTG2.5 Comand in my W211. The limitations of the built in memory and SD card capacity are driving me nuts so I want a proper integrated iPod solution. I now that I can get the proper MB kit for circa £180 (plus installation) and that will allow me to operate using the...

    Nasty indicator stalk!

    I've only had my W211 a few weeks and i am generally very impressed by the quality, feel, fit and finish of everything. One thing that really lets the side down is the indicator stalk. It's very unsatisfying to move up and down, and it springs back like a shotgun, causing the whole steering...

    Windscreen wiper / bonnet edge on W211

    One little annoyance I have noticed on my 2009 E Class (W211) is that you cannot pull the windscreen wipers forward and away from the windscreen when you are washing the car as the bonnet prevents you from doing this. On mine in fact, there is a bad chip on the edge of the bonnet where...

    Cleaning Artico

    Any tips on how to clean black Artico? Unfortunately it shows all the greasy fingermarks. I have tried a couple of proper interior cleaners such as Auto Glym Vinyl & Rubber but I don't like it - it creates dark and sticky patches. I prefer not to use any cleaner at all - I used to just use a...

    A few questions about NTG2.5 COMAND

    I just bought a 2009 E220 with COMAND (I’m sure it’s NTG2.5) from an approved MB dealer. I pick it up in a week or so. But am I correct in my understanding from research that using an SD card, it won’t put tracks in the correct sequence without me numbering them?! (ie by default it puts them in...
