Basically, is there a correct one to buy or are they all the same? Also, will any SD card work with them? I think I read somewhere that they can only use a max size of 8 or maybe 16gb!
Cheers.

Hi,
I've just bought a PCMCIA card and CF card to listen to music in my S-class W221 and find whilst the COMAND finds/plays the mp3s fine, it eventually locks up where I can't navigate the card or play any radio.
This can happen at random times whilst playing or more likely to happen when...
Horrified to see PCMCIA card input on this system.
Does anyone enjoy using it, typically with a Compact Flash (CF), or SD adaptor?
(I understand it can handle up to 256 layers / 4000 tracks)
Feels primitive but I loathe not using original equipment.
Should I just relax and roll with...

I have a card in the dash just below the comand, it says on it PCMCIA card adapter, it's about the same size as a credit card. There is an SD card in it what is its purpose ? the SD card is 16 gig btw.

Hey guys,
first off - hello! I recently drove home an 09 s320 cdi, and it's a lovely motor, but I could use some assistance on the entertainment front. I have the aux port (audio l/r & video) in the glove box, and the phone prewiring kit (central storage compartment has that small connector...

I have a 32Gb PCMCIA card in the card slot with 3,400+ tracks on it which is read fine by the COMAND system in every way except one. It identifies all the playlists on the card as containing no playable files. Having looked at the playlists (plb and m3u format), they are fine and work well...
Still makes me laugh that this utterly obsolete technology made it into a car as late as 2009, but ever asked yourself why?
I am just curious as to what the group thinks!

Hi
Thought I'd share my pain and anguish, and try to save you the same. I was trying to use memory cards for audio in my 2006 W221 S-Class (UK). I wanted to use 'modern' cards (that I could use on other devices) so have run the gamut of adapters. If they don't work, the error shown on the...

Hi there. Have a UK 2006 W221 with Comand. Have recently experienced the PCMCIA slot playing up (not sure if this is because it's coincided with me adding some more MP3's to my SD card).
I manually create folders on the SD card while it is in my PC and then copy the MP3 tracks I want from my...
I have a new E Class W212 and was wandering if i needed to buy the official Mercedes PCMCIA adaptor for the slot on the dashboard, or if I could buy one off the shelf from someone like Amazon for a fraction of the price?
Further to A-AvantGarde's Classified Ad
I've got two as well, for sale on the same terms.
However, in the interests of fairness, you can't have one from me until A-AvantGarde's sold all his.
