This is not only useful for w212, I have an SLK and most of this applies as well. I guess it goes for the newer SLC as well. Great and informative video as usual!
Tak for info! Hilsen fra dit broderfolk🇩🇰
thanks a ton, now i know i got the NTG 4.5 audio 20
perfect ‘roadmap’ for the ntg jungle 🛣
Great video! One question: how to activate CarPlay or Android Auto on my 2011 W212 NTG4 Comand?
Great info! The world of NTG units is a lot confusing haha

Indeed it is indeed, try to make this video for a year now but every time I trash it because I not like when I not know 100% But this is probably good enough for most owners to check which system they got.
Very useful video. Thanks a lot mate 👍
Finally :)) thanks Dude!!
thanks!!! saved me a lot of time...
Very informative, thank you
Thank you very much!!❤❤
Thank you Very helpful ❤ from 🇦🇺
You are the best!! 💗💗
thank you for the info, very useful, does the central air vent are rhe same to remove for every NTG (4-4.5…) ?
Love your videos! If possible, you should do a tutorial on how to rebuild Comand Hard drives. My hard drive died and now the navigation won't work on a 4.5. This will be more common as time goes on. Thanks again for your awesome videos!

Hi, can you tell me which connection I plug a reversing camera into on Ntg4.5 comand 7inch, car us 2013 pre face-lift e350 coupe, has the double green socket on the bottom row and a single green socket above that, tried both but neither works, I've enabled camera from menu and selected reverse gear, I get a black screen with a safety message on it when engaging reverse but thats all. Any help is appreciated
I have a problem accessing the secret menu with phone+1+# buttons. No matter how long I hold it down for, it just does not enter the menu. I checked all the buttons separately and they work. The car is a 2015 e350 with the NTG 5. Any ideas why it would not enter the menu?
Thank you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I think I have the NTG 4.0 20 without nav, e350 2011, I couldn't find the audio option on the top tab, though my phone gets connected for calls. What should be done?
Amazing!!! I'd been searching everywhere to find this information. My only question is how do I get Car play on my phone 2009 model with NTG 4.0 COMAND.
What’s the difference between audio 50 aps and comand aps? (both ntg 4.0)
Hi on the 4.5 audio 20 where does the monitor plug in
hi, great video! I have an NTG 4.5 COMAND on my 2011 W204, but I don't like the gold display. I'm looking at getting a later model NTG 4.5 off ebay because I prefer the silver display. Is there anything I should be looking out for? Thanks

Is really confusing due to some minor things is not the same on all models but usually it should look as in video. I guess from the year you have the NTG 4!
Hello, first of all thanks for all of your guides, they are amaizing. I have a question: can i change the ntg 4 unit with a newer version of ntg like 4.5 o 5...?

Is it possible to add a front camera (without carplay box) if you have command ntg4.7 and OEM rear camera?

Yess then you have the input for it so is possible. Don’t know the procedure sometimes original retrofit could be kinda hard and expensive.
How do carplay works or your ntg4.7 ?
Can you retrofit any of the other units? I’ve got NTG4.0 with sat nav but as we all know it’s getting pretty old now and MB have did their last nav update for NTG4.0 in 2018 ;(

Yess you could retrofit but is all about money time and knowledge. I don’t have the knowledge is pretty complex procedure lots of things need to be replaced and coded to the car. That’s not nice they not support never maps.

Hmmm I have NTG4 with satnav but no PCMCIA slot.
I looking at W212's with NTG 5 and I'm totally confused. Many have code 522 (audio 20) and still have code 218 (rear-view camera) while still showing GPS-maps in the ads. The steering wheels also have a button for voice control. Is a hard drive all you get for opting for Comand? I very much doubt that all these cars have been upgraded to Comand.

Honestly this audio/command thing is so confusing is so many different system also some small differences for regions. But for the newer NTG 5 I think even if is audio 20 you still have the option for rear camera and that’s not the same for the older systems such as NTG 4.5. No command is whole different unit and no any hard drive at least for all other system before NTG 5

@@MB212 Thanks. I'm lokking at cars in Norway and so far all have been here since new. Your video helped me with understanding the different generations, but the things with NTG 5 are pretty weird. Some say the hard drive navi is the way better option, but the difference doesn't seem huge in that gen of systems.

Yess the NTG 5 I have not so much experience from, I only had the NTG 5 audio 20 device at my old 2016 taxi ride. Honestly I don’t really remember how to easy check the difference at that system due to they look identical. Not sure about the screen size? These other system big screen = command and small screen = audio 20.

@@MB212 Guess it's time to go out and check some cars. I can't see any difference in screen size in the ads I've seen. My Comand 2.5 in the 09 w211 sounds pretty good and I like to keep my cars stock. Wonder if the sounds is very different across the NTG 5 line. Even otherwise high spec cars don't have the comand and that might be a sign that the difference between the systems in the NTG 5-line are smaller than before.
