    Becker Sat Nav odd behaviour

    I had a 2013 car with the same SatNav built in and experienced the same as you. As others have said, the software has errors that cause this to happen, though in fairness I experienced this with my two W213 E class cars too. I found the Harman Becker SatNav to be pretty mediocre and I used a...

    W213 - Anyone found some strange things with new Comand NTG 5.5 sat nav?

    I get similar problems, like when travelling north on the M25 when south of the Dartford Tunnel, the road becomes the A282, then you get a bizarre instruction to "Keep left onto the A282" when in fact the" keep left" and the associated graphic they show you is inviting you to turn off! This...

    Adblue warning question

    Topping up AdBlue on W213 I had the warning on the dashboard telling me to top up AdBlue, I have covered over 10,000 miles in the car since buying it new. A quick call to the dealer revealed they now charge for the first AdBlue top-up, where previously this was a free of charge service if the...

    Playing videos on E class W213 Comand

    I didn't know you could do that! In my blinkered mind I thought getting video to play needed a TV receiver module, but it all makes sense, thank you for enlightening me. Do you need to have a particular file format?

    W213 COMAND online map update stuck on 66%

    As my French colleagues would say, "On verra!" (we shall see) - the service department at my dealer actually rang me on the day I decided to change cars and was already in the showroom. I know I wasn't alone with the problem and I really do hope the new one, which has a VIN some 20,000 numbers...

    W213 COMAND online map update stuck on 66%

    Well, that's all folks! OK, so in the end I gave up. I believe I had a Friday afternoon car as the SatNav was just getting worse and worse. The only thing consistent about it was the inconsistencies. I have changed the car and have a newer E Class, but without adaptive cruise control. I...

    W213 COMAND online map update stuck on 66%

    You have hit it on the head. In my humble opinion I think this has been "rushed" and launched upon us without proper testing. One of the less desirable features I endure is that when I set the car to observe speed limits, it sometimes accelerates unexpectedly as the speed limits are wrongly...

    W213 COMAND online map update stuck on 66%

    This sounds like an echo of my problem. I hope you don't have to wait too long for a fix. Someone else was suffering with the same problems as me when I was at the dealer today, their problems are unresolved too.:(

    W213 COMAND online map update stuck on 66%

    Latest update for those interested in the saga. I went to the dealer today to get this sorted out, along with the safety recall that notified me of a possible wiring harness hazard. It only took just under an hour each way to drive the 22 mile journey. Handed the car over at 8am and fetched...

    W213 COMAND online map update stuck on 66%

    Thanks for your reply on this, but I have already tried disabling the automatic update and it makes not a blind bit of difference. The system doggedly sticks to its preferred course of action and although it recognises there is new media with something useful, it will not stop trying to...

    comand freezes and then reboots

    Mine has done this a few times, but it only seemed to affect the navigation, the phone part (iPhone connected) seemed to carry on unaffected. Sounds like a dealer visit if you haven't already done so.

    W213 COMAND online map update stuck on 66%

    Thought I'd update you with my latest information having spoken with my dealer. Sadly, it needs their attention as they say whatever needs doing to try to cancel the existing installation can only be done in the workshop. I have suffered several problems with the Comand system on my car, I'm...

    W213 COMAND online map update stuck on 66%

    You need to register on the mercedes.me website and then enter your car's details. I did this the day I picked up the car. The updates can be downloaded to a memory stick once you have gone through the registration process, but I think they may be fingerprinted to your particular car.

    W213 COMAND online map update stuck on 66%

    I have the same problem, but mine is stuck at 65%. On the home screen, an arrow shows a software update is available and when I select it, the screen shows it is installing, but has been hanging at 65% for a week now.:doh: I had a safety recall letter about the wiring harness under the back...

    Key Fob not turning in ignition

    Problems with dead key on my S203 Hello all, I'm a "newbie" so apologise in advance to those of you rolling your eyes upwards and thinking I should know this or have found it elsewhere. I have problems with one of my keys not working in my 2002 S203 C220 CDI - one of them does everything I...
