Can anyone with the upgraded comand system in the USA confirme or deny if it shows traffic speed limits in the display as my audio 20 with map pilot does? Or does it show it anywhere on the dash?

Gungaslow

Or does it sow it in the heads up display if equipped in the USA?

Shows in the HUD for sure. I'll have to look at the navi screen itself.

I'm talking about the street speed limit.. Not the cars speed.. Is that what your Saying?

Mike5215

Right. Little graphical representation of a black on white rectangular speed limit sign.

Gungaslow

Do you have drivers assistance package or does it get that info from the comand unit?

Mike5215

I have DA. My understanding is that just COMAND alone won't display the signs in the HUD.

The speed limit graphic shows up on the left display (between tach and speedo)also (MY16) . I have COMAND and DA, no HUD.

I do not have the DA package, and my COMAND/navigation does not show posted speed limits at all. Very annoying omission, and a feature that is part of every other navigation system I have used.

We talked a bit about this in another thread a week or two ago, I think.

In Europe, the speed limits ( as well as other road signs) are detected from the stereo cameras as part of the lane keeping system, so Driver's Assistance package is required for it to work.

In the US, they use map data, and only have speed limits, so there is no technical reason to have it as part of the driver's assistance package, but I'm guessing for marketing purposes and to keep the package descriptions the same in both markets, it appears MB decided to leave it as part of the Driver Assist package.

My 2015 C400 doesn't show the speed limit in the HUD or in the display. I have COMAND and Drivers Assistance Package.

Gungaslow

So if I get the driver assistance package and multimedia Comand package but don't get the heads up display... Is there any other place to view the posted speed limit ((screen, or gauge cluster)) other than the HUD??

z28lt1

It displays on the nav screen, and I think the gauge screen if you are displaying the assistance screen.

Gungaslow

I thought it wasn't displayed in the nav screen?

my first car ('09 GTI) showed speed limits but my current 2015 car does not, what's up with that? so tired of the premium brands skimping on features that tgw others have had for years
