connectivity

Hi I am taking delivery of a E250 saloon, it is base SE spec with audio 20 and map pilot. Am I right in assuming it will only have a 3.5 mm jack for iPod connection? Is the only option for iPod integration to get an iPod connection kit from mb or command online?

Hi Guys, I have an iPhone 5 and want to synch it to use in my W219 (CLS55). I know it will not connect via bluetooth and as I only have the Nokia cradle installed in the centre armrest I know that this is of no use. Is there a software upgrade required for COMAND to allow bluetooth recognition...

Hi everyone, For a 2009 C Class with Comand and Lingatronic I can't find an iPod connection, I've found the AUX jack in the glovebox but that looks like the only plug in there, does this mean it doesn't have the Media Interface option?, if this is the case can one be retrofitted so it will work...

I have today picked up a 2010 CL350 CDI Elegance estate. It has a comand system with 6 disc CD/DVD player. I want to use it with an iPod but not sure how to connect it? Should there be a connection in the glove box? Do I need to buy a cable to connect it with? On first look I couldn't see any...

Two separate questions: Firstly, I have iPod leads in both the SLK and Fabia, and having discovered when I got my 4th generation iPod Touch that they no longer charged the iPod, made a mental note to get one of those inline adapters available from COMAND online. Never really got round to it (I...

I have a W211 2003 E320 CDi Avanguard The car has never had a phone fitted as far as I can tell - there is no cradle. When I press the "Phone" buttons on the steering wheel I get a "Not Installed" message on the display. Presumably the "Optional" phone cable was never installed ? I currently...

I have just bought my first MB (always been a BMW man up to now - sorry). I have a 2009 C220 Estate with Comand. I am spending the weekend playing with al the new toys but can't seem to get the ipod to work through the system. I can play the ipod and hear it - just can't control it via the...

Hi all Not long bought a 2009 C250 and have come up against a couple of problems. 1) My phone pairs with the car, but I can't access my phone book and incoming calls just show the number, not the name of the contact...any ideas on how I get the contacts to sync with the car. I've tried to...

Just taken delivery of my new Mercedes A Class and have successfully paired my Samsung phone but when making or receiving a call, the radio cuts out but there is no sound from the cars speakers. I have read that this is quite a problem with Samsung phones but I cannot find an answer to...

Hi, my first post. Is there a way of connecting an i-pod via the car's bluetooth receiver, if so how? The aux jack in the glove compartment is not very loud (with i-pod on max). Thanks:confused:

Hi, Ive just bought my first Mercedes, its an ex demonstrator c220 cdi sport estate, which i think is called a w204(?), anyway the one thing i asked for from the dealership was to be able to plug my ipod in and be able to access all track and albums etc(full control). However when I picked...

Hi,does anyone know if the Nokia 2700 will work ok in the Mercedes Bluetooth SAP V2 phone cradle?

Hi all, Here's one for you. My son's laptop started up this morning and went straight into disc check mode. It is running Vista Home. It found a corrupt file and deleted it (so my missus said), and restarted. It restarted successfully and she tried to start Firefox to go browsing. It never...

After jamming my CD changer and fiddling about in the glovebox trying to sort it, I found an aux socket. Obviously this will take an ipod but being as it's in the glovebox isn't much good if you want track selection from the drivers seat. Is there a lead or any other way to get ipod control...

After picking up my E350 today, one of the first things I did was connect my Ipod Nano and leave it in the glove box. Just wondered whether anyone knows - does it charge the Ipod when being used, and does it cut power to it when the ignition is off?

As previously stated ive just bought a C200 Coupe and id like to fit iPod/iPhone adapters into the car. Ive been looking at http://www.comandonline.co.uk/product.php?productid=16288&cat=249&page=1 and http://www.comandonline.co.uk/product.php?productid=16264&cat=252&page=1 I know the car...

I am a little confused/worried having done some searching on bluetooth functionality about whether my new 2008 W211 will just work with my Iphone when I get it at the weekend. Basically the dealer stated that the car has integrated bluetooth and it is a few second job to pair my phone to the...

Hi everyone, first post on this forum so apologies if I am asking something that everyone knows about. I have just bought an E-class from 2005. It seems to have bluetooth. However when I carry out the Bluetooth seach it finds my phone and my wifes seems to connect for a second and then...

Hi all I have just tried to set up my wifes computer for wireless and the router and Lan card is showing as GOOD. I have limited or no connectivity and says signal strength is excellent so obviously I cannot connect to the net,I have tried to find some advice on Google but it is mostly computer...

Hi, I am going to buy a B Class with Comand APS, but want to be able to play music from digital media players / USB sticks other than the Ipod. Is there an accessory that I can buy to enable this type of generic USB connectivity. I would like to be able to browse through and select the files...
