COMAND version

[neil1654]

How do I find out what version of COMAND I have in my motor. The VIN decoder info tells me NTG5. I just want to confirm this in the vehicle itself.

Also how do I load MP3 files to the hard disk. However I try I can't seem to manage it.

Thank you.

CoMAND NTG5 only became available in the past year or so, though the phrase 'NTG5" and 'NTG5.5' show on some online VIN decoders for older models together with 'option 531'.

But if your vehicle was not made in 2014 or 2015, then you probably do not have NTG5, in spite of what the VIN decoder says.

Check the list of COMAND systems here:

And see if you can spot yours.

Thank you for that. An interesting read about the different COMAND versions. My motor is a W212 and a 2015 build. I didn't see mine in the article. So perhaps it is NTG 5. None of the short cuts to hidden menus etc. seem to work [ they were all for 4.5] so still looking for more info.
