HI everyone. I need your help. I called the dealer to buy the media interface plus for my 2012 S600 since I do not have Bluetooth Audio Streaming, and they told me that it is not meant for your car.

The parts person said I should have Bluetooth streaming and SMS reading capabilities in the 2012 car. Can any 2012 S owner confirm please?

Do I need a software update? Does anyone with a 2012 have Bluetooth Audio enabled option? Is there a way to access the hidden engineering menu on the S to enable it?

My phone is Samsung S4.

Thank you

No W221 has factory streaming BT audio. The $300 Media Interface Plus does not support streaming in the 221 either. Pick up the Tune2Air BT adapter on Amazon for $80 and you'll be good to go.

Thanks for your reply.

How come the Media interface plus is on the 2012 S brochure then?

No idea. I guess you could get one and try it out. I know for sure the the $80 adapter works.

It sure looks like it should be an option for at least the facelift comand.

Interesting. No BT audio streaming or video playback, but you do get the SMS.
