Sending Post Code to Command NTG5.2 via Mercedes Me doesn't work!

[chyperie]

Although Mercedes Me lets me enter an address or post code and gives the option to "send to vehicle" and says "the address was sent to vehicle......if at the moment you are not near your car, the address will be displayed after powering on the vehicle" . The address never seems to appear!

Any advice would be gratefully appreciated.

I know its probably as quick to enter the post code when I'm in the car, I just like features to work as intended.

This feature stopped working some time ago. I can only get it to work if I send it to the car when in the car with the ignition on and connected by Bluetooth so rather a pointless process I do line up destinations and send them by the app if I have several new locations to visit. I then go into the app and select recent destinations and send them again.
I have have had my car from new in 2016, from memory I had problems from 2018 onwards despite paying after the first three years “free” service. 5.2 has had no upgrades since 2020.

That functionality (amongst a number of other features) won't now work on any car pre-2018, given they came equipped with 3G comms modules. The 3G data network is in the advanced stages of shutdown.

So you won't be getting any upgrades. Later cars came with LTE (4G) modules and still work fine, with functionality commensurate to a given cars options.
