If your comes with 2 x 12.3" HD dash just need to pay workshop to activate it via coding. If analog dial with 10" display is more complicated, better check with sponsor here.

Yup, I meant I activated Apple play at Elebest, don’t really like it. MB integration is better. I just don’t know why they never open TuneIn in MB apps. Only weather accessible.

MB OEM is Sonax......

I did my W213 car play at Elebest, after using it few days at the end I never use it. MB original system is better, now just connect back my older Iphone 7plus work as iPod permanently inside the car.

Just done Apple play it goes full screen in my car.

Yes it was one off time last time W204 FL comes with command online, my car was late dec 2010. They ask $750 odd last time to update map, then I update it via gentlemen from HK last time I found in this forum for half price just to get the PIN that related to the car VIN. I boy did the update once and never bother with it again. are you still into car audio also I think last time you recommend me to Cartoon Lee new Generation, now getting old ICE mod is already thing in the past.

My previous W204 was comes with command online, it was crap. Map update need to pay every 2 years need to pay. Volvo sensus online on my XC60 was similar to command online but AD giving live time free map update. Actually almost getting Lexus Luxury Hybrid custom indent order including Mark Levinson system, but I get E200 just becuase of logical decision. CnC stock car need to take as it is,

I just booked from CnC E200 to replace my XC60, finally back again to MB family. Confirmed this new E200 doesn't come with mobile phone integration so no Apple Car Play or Android Auto. This older version non MBUX system.

I love MB but owning MB 2 x times almost vomit blood with their service and arrogancy. When my W204 out of warranty I straight away I service it outside. Now eying GLC300 either late this year or next year to replace my XC60 but I will go to PI route, actually XC 60 is really nice car but the new model is MIC big stigma.

The only second time I encounter vibration is when the engine mounting and gearbox mounting need to replaced. But this is constant vibration especially for W204 can be felt at the shifter.

I had this issue with C180 W204 when I fill up with RON 95 Problem gone if fill up with RON98

Brake pads wear depend on the driving style. Based on my experience last with W204 it can last me 60k before alarm comes out but rotor need to be replaced too. Cost 2k in CnC down time 2 days but my car is already out of warranty so I did it out side with original part. I was shown that the rotor is worn out beyond marking point, so I decided to replace it too total cost 1k for rotor, brake pads and sensor down time 4 hours.

It's ok. Sold my W204 and now already happily driving Volvo XC60 T5 for past 2 months.
