I’ve had a Mercedes cl500 c216 from 2007 for over 2 years and been unable to pair my iPhone. Never found an effective set of instructions nor after watching maybe 80 videos on how to do it. None gave the complete procedure until yours. I was beginning to think it was faulty so many many thanks for your trouble.

Have spent forever trying to connect my 2005 R230 to my phone. This was great and the only one I found that demystified the system.

Have a look at my Bluetooth streaming module video called Mr12v should help you mate. kzread.info/dash/bejne/eHd3r7SnhtrRZbg.html

Hi, and thank you for your excellent videos which 'do as it says on the tin" and are extremely helpful. In my recently purchased 2008 SL 350 (2006-2008 facelift model), I was able to connect my iPhone via the Bluetooth gizmo in the box which my phone recognised, unfortunately, I had no password at hand, but you came up trumps and it connected immediately after I added the password you passed on via your video. I did not use the first part of the process you have highlighted as my COMAND system did not show a 'Bluetooth' tab, however after linking via the gizmo in the armrest, I now have everything highlighted in your video, eg. call and receive calls capability, the speakerphone is operational, and my address book as been added to the COMAND system interface. Thanks!

I got it from ebay I think, I had to slightly tweak the three middle mounting points, by adding rubber bushes to take up the gap, they also help with flexing if there are speed bumps. I added a rubber trim around the front too. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/223910431910?_ul=UK&gclid=Cj0KCQjwio6XBhCMARIsAC0u9aEC_kYg0K_FkB56XqIxWuuUuux_dMZFHf2bTOnuVm0i-5tswTm_TRUaAnIrEALw_wcB

Hi Steve, Congratulations for what you are doing, I follow you with great interest!! Please, I also have a question: Once I have connected the iPhone to this module, can I also play music from the iphone? Or only to be able to call and be called from the iphone?

Hi there, the Bluetooth Mercedes module is only capable of phone calls but works great, it does not have A2DP Bluetooth which is for music streaming. However there are options to get 3rd modules to allow this. My other vids explain 👍

I just unplugged the built in Mercedes handset where other 2003 models have a cradle. Is there a Mercedes Bluetooth thing that fits into the slot where the phone came out ? Unsure how to send a photo here. Thanks again for all the info !!

Me again !!!! The ridiculous thing is that the required code is not provided on the back of the bt adapter. Typical I think. However after trying the numbers that are on the back your number worked. Seems a bit stupid to me but who cares - I now have a phone. Car also has a tv interface but can’t get anything but channel 26. Just shows interference.

Hi what car do you have? If you don't have the old phone connection, then you won't be able to use the Bluetooth adapter. However you can use a Bluetooth module called LA Power or Mr 12V that come with hands free calling via a mic. The most basic method is a cheap Bluetooth FM transmitter too
