Thank you so much Xezo Sakai, I helped my friend over the phone with your video on his 2012 C class and then I did my 2011 E350 and both work right away.
Thanks for taking the time to post this. I just got a 2010 C300 and hope this will work for me, but either way I appreciate the help
Thank you so much man ive been playing around and it was so frustrating, great video and awesome explanation !
You're welcome.
Thank you so much, this worked. I just got this car and couldn’t figure out how to play music. Why did they make this so hard? UGH!
You're welcome. In the Luxury car world you have to pay for feature to be unlocked.
Since you just got this car I will give you some real world advices after owning this car as Daily Driver for 1 year and 3 months.
With all the maintenances and minor repair cost of owning a 10 years old car not including insurance and gas average out to be $200 a month.
Thank you so much for this video! It works people 🥰I just purchased a 2011 E350 wagon and paired with my 13Pro.
You're welcome. I will added iPhone 13 Pro the title to help future iPhone user who want to buy the same Mercedes Car.
Incase you are wondering, yes Mine still drive fine after 2.9 years with 100,000 mile additional..
The best yet 👍🏽👍🏽
Brother I can't even see video and audio options in my Mercedes E class 350 cdi what should I do?

Fr can u help me I got the same car as u g please
Thank you so much. I tried and it works.👍👍👍
Mine plays music fine but i cant skip songs, view song name, or control anything from my cars buttons because it will say "bluetooth audio device paused" even though the music is still playing.
Does anyone know a fix for this.
You don't view song name.
All the skipping control is done through your phone app.
The physical Mercedes control only control song that is "internally inside your phone (meaning music that is not stream, which are music purchase through iTunes)"
2010 GL cant go to engineering mode plz help
Anyone as idea why on my speedmeter is appearing the navigation system? He tells all kind of street name on speedmeter when It should show on dashboard.. someone help me please.
Appreciate your help, bra!
I have a 2010 c300 but in engineering menu i do not have bt audio. Is there and update I can do to get it???
Normally if you don't even have Bluetooth Audio that would mean your system literally has no Bluetooth Capability at all.
Mercedes like to pull that kind of $$ games where you have to pick your options when the car is new so they will install the car with the options you want.
Your best bet is go to the Mercedes Dealer to have add the bluetooth options for you through "whatever means necessary".
@@xezosakai2041 Strangely - I also have this issue...I'm in a RHD E350 2010 Avantgarde. I have phone bluetooth (which I finally managed to connect thanks to your video!!) but my engineering mode options for bluetooth audio output are totally different to what you showed. no option for hardware settings at all...and all menu selections are on the bottom of the screen not the top (as in yours). Could be an update thing between 2010 & 2011 models?
@@jennymuddyman3878 I am not a car mechanic so I can't confirm stuff like that.
But I work in computer field a lot and I do know that manufactures as a whole do not like to change "BIOS menu items",
so in this case with Mercedes "BIOS can be considered as Engineering mode".
So if your menu is completely different that mean the car electrical component must be drastically different.
There are product like Bluetooth Receiver with MMI interface that specifically only work for Mercedes 2011 and older.
The problem with that is you have to buy the "old generation Bluetooth version below 5.0" or it won't work.
new iPhone use Bluetooth 5.0, so eventually if you buy these adapter for $40-$50 it will stop working with your iPhone.
Of course you can always bring to the Mercedes Dealer and have them enable to option for you for $200+
If it is even possible.
Last option is just buy a new Android Head Unit with Bluetooth and replace it yourself which will cost you $900-$1100 in parts.
I do recommend just bring to the dealer, because they probably just do shady "1-2 click or unlock the firmware with backdoor scan tool, and make you wait 2 hours to make it look like it is very hard to give "Bluetooth Audio feature to the Luxury Car".
Clearly my Mercedes 2011 has the "capability to use both Bluetooth phone and audio stream" feature. But the Bluetooth Audio stream feature was disable by default. Why?$
@@jennymuddyman3878 no I have approx the same car as yours and it’s a 2009/10 and I have it. E550 but still the same. You may need to get the NTG updated and not by Mercedes
Your a legend
Very well done mate! It's a nightmare!
Thank u very much - really appreciate
Can you stream tunein app with this way ?
Yes, I use tunein app to stream music on the phone all the the time and the audio work in bluetooth.
CZcams audio work as well.
Thank u very much 🙏🏻🙏🏻🤗🤗
For some reason my car doesn’t have the audio aux feature
I am not a car mechanic. But going with the logic with the assumption that your car is the same model as mine, then by logic it would have the audio aux.
Unless the Mercedes system has a hardware detection that when it boot up it will detect working component that is connected to the board.
Kind of like when your Graphic Card is bad, you then boot up your PC. It will not see your Bad Graphic Card.
So with this case i would assume that your audio chip is bad/dead/defected.
Please can I use this same video for 2012 e 350 Benz thanks
I know for sure Mercedes 2011 and Mercedes 2012 are different build.
And your question is not clear so I am going to answer 2 question base on :
Answer 1: If you want to use this video as a guide for Mercedes Benz 2012 e350, then no just go record yourself in a better lighting or something and would actually be proper tutorial for Mercedes Benz 2012.
This video is original purpose is portray the struggle of the common people who know nothing about car. So it is not really ideal to spread it around like it is a great video.
Answer 2: If you want to ask you can do this for your Mercedes Benz 2012 e350, then do what you want. It is not like you have a choice when it come to paying $ to Mercedes Dealer to activate Bluetooth stream feature for the car.
I used it for 2010, worked for me.
bro' does it also work for iphone 6 on a mercedes c 220? 2009
I am not a mechanic, I wouldn't know that. Only Mercedes dealer and local repair shop with scan tool can tell you if your car has that "options when the 1st owner that purchase it".
Does this work on a 2011 C300 Luxury?
I am not a car mechanic, so I don't know know if this instruction will work with C300 model.
Hi
Love your videos - Any idea how I can do 2012 s class w221 Bluetooth audio
Hello CCK Playground,
I am assuming you already tried what I did on the video and it probably didn't look anything like this since your car is an S class and 2012.
I am not a car mechanic, so I wouldn't know how to do it for your car.
I remember during my research for 2011, I found out some after market Bluetooth receiver MMI adapter only compatible with certain year like from 2010-2011.
And different Bluetooth receiver MMI adapter compatible with 2012-2016.
Which mean that you might not even have the option to enable the feature manually without actually using Mercedes Scan tool to access the system for programming.
Just call the Mercedes Dealer ask them for a quote. That way you have a price to haggle your local Mercedes mechanic.
S class cars are far more complex. We don’t have the tools to update them here. We were always told you couldn’t really do it. Did you try finding the key sequence in the videos and seeing if those work ?
What year is it ? Does it even have a Bluetooth module?
On the E class both are in the same module (small box) on an S class most things are different
I have restarted but still no audi Bluetooth showing
I am not a mechanic.
I am assuming that if you have the "exact car model and year as me, you should have no issue enable Bluetooth"
Of course like in anything, there is always that 1% chance of electronic malfunction. So you would need to have a Mercedes Mechanic to fix for you.
Does Spotify stream work?
Thanks for the video will try to today on my glk 350
Yes, I believe Spotify stream will work.
Is this all sorted ?
What do you mean by "sorted" ?
@@xezosakai2041 is it fixed or do you have some sort on plan to fix
@@johnbates606 My Mercedes is fine. I bought it in working condition the car does not need any fixing.
I have been using it as daily driver for 1 years and 5 months and don't have any major issue.
So far I have only needing to do the usual oil/break/tire changes maintenance, belt tensioner replacement, and auxiliary battery and main battery replacement.
@@xezosakai2041 I have an E550. I have put about 7000 km on it so far. Have done an oil change and that’s it so far. I’m up to 59000 kms now. The only worry I have is that 1 of the air shocks may go at some stage!
"Okay"
My car doesent have bt audio there is only Bluetooth
If you have exactly the same model car, by logic your car does have BT Audio. So follow the video again step by step.
This video is live as it get. I am not a car mechanic. But if you have the same model and you follow exactly as the video instruction.
Then your issue is very simple, you have a defected hardware and only Mercedes can fix for you the right way.
@@xezosakai2041 I have Mercedes E200 2009. In Engineering mode I see SW Build:26.004, Date:01/04/2009, etc. I don't see Bluetooth Audio neither. I think I have an earlier version of the software. I don' t know whether I can get around this... e.g. by software update...
@@sanane7030 2009 is not in the same "model cycle".
2010-2016 is the redesign cycle which is totally different from the 2003-2009 model cycle.
It is unlikely you have Bluetooth audio stream feature in your car from factory.
I have a BMW i3 2010 and it doesn't come any Bluetooth capability nor backup camera from factory.
Both are Luxury Brand car competing each other.
So if BMW can't afford to have those feature in 2010.
Mercedes being the best or nothing "in 2009" should not have any of those feature.
@@xezosakai2041 I have exactly the same look as yours except "the paddle shifter" for gear. I have still the traditional gear-shift lever in the middle. W212. So, I don't agree with you regarding the model cycle 2003-2009. But maybe bluetooth audio functionality was not incorporated in 2009 and that really sucks!....I don't know what to do...
@@sanane7030 I am actually surprise I am wrong on that despite that I googled for " Mercedes E200 2009" and saw that the tail light is triangle for 2009 model and all the website clearly stated 2003-2009 is of triangle cycle. So either your is the 2010 model or something doesn't add up.
But regardless I am not a car mechanic, but I know software well enough to know that when they create program/software for anything. It always detect all the "hardware" at the the bios/dos level. It is not easy to redesign software for individual cars every year. It cost lot of money especially for Mercedes.
If you don't see anything that exist in the original firmware/bios menu. It is not possible to update to software to enable a hardware Bluetooth feature.
Like most old car, to get modern backup camera and Bluetooth technology would require a new aftermarket Android Stereo Deck to replace your current stereo deck, which obviously will come with Bluetooth stream feature.
Yes, it will cost around $4000 both labor and parts. Which should be expected since you are driving Mercedes after all.
This shit worked!!!!!
Still cant pair it
You have to first at least be able to pair Bluetooth to phone call before you can even attempt to Bluetooth stream audio.
The Bluetooth phone call feature is by default enable when the car manufactured.
That is why on the there is a Physical Call Answer Button and Call Hang up button on the car.
So if you can't pair your phone to allow phone call through Bluetooth then you can assume 2 problem.
1: Your phone has Bluetooth issue or not compatible with this Bluetooth on this 9 year old car.
2. Your car Bluetooth is either busted or if you bought it used, some one could mess with the setting in engineer mode badly that they crash it.
Which would require the dealer to reprogram the setting.
3. You did not know that this model is only officially support iPhone 6 and 7.
I was very lucky that it was able to support iPhone XS before and of course I have iPhone 11 Pro now.
4. Of course since I already know that the latest iPhone 11 Pro work. So I am sure your iPhone must work unless you are using the Android phone.
If you are using Android phone, I suggest you use an iPhone to confirm if it is the phone or the car issue.
You’re sooo stupid 😂😂 it’s EASYYYYYYYYYYY
I have my phone paired for calls but bt audio is not an option I see it was number 2 on your list in the HU parameter settings mine says LCT : installed/not installed and my Bluetooth on/off option is number 6 below Navi 🤦♀️ whyyy I want to use it back in the day I downloaded an app for my iPhone to play audio in my 2010 c300 and it worked but poor sound quality
Brew this works why the fuck they turn it off
Never worked sorry
Thank u very much 🙏🏻🙏🏻🤗🤗
You're welcome.
Never worked sorry
Sad to hear. You can always try to "cheat the Mercedes dealer by ask them for a quote to "enable Bluetooth Audio for your car."
If they quote you only labor.
That mean your Mercedes already has that feature but it is locked behind program scan tool.
I am sure you going to have to accept the Mercedes quote whether you like to or not because you drive a Mercedes not a Honda.
