Comand 2.0 info

I have a 2002 clk430 cab with comand. However i am not sure what version comand it is. What is comand 2.0 and how is it different than previous comand?

Does it have a/v input?
Is it cd or dvd based?

One annoying thing about my comand is that in map mode, it does not display the surround street names (like the dvd comand in 04 s class) but only the street name of the street you are on. Does comand 2.0 display other surround street names?

you have a 2.0 comand. 2.5 is for the S class. This numbering system refers to the din size and not a version. The comand itself does not have a/v inputs. It has RGB inputs which can accept a A/V Adapter or a TV Tuner. It is a cd based comand. The Cd based comands does not display surround street names.

I think scorchie or steve can better answer the question on the Euro S class comand. I think it can play dvd in motion but I am not too sure. As for the US comand accepting a TV Tuner or A/V Adapter... The US Comand can accept both but activating the TV button on a US comand is nearly impossible.

There is no such thing as COMAND [b]3.5[/b[ - who ever sells something like that definitely does NOT know what (s)he is talking about.
Euro DVD comands for the S-class can be set to play DVDs in motion...DVD comands do NOT work in pre 2004 S-classes.

A US CD rom based comand can be programmed to support the mercedes benz TV tuner...the comand itself HAS NO TV or VIDEO abilities at all!
US spec DVD based comands do not support TV at all.

The 05 W203 comand does not have a DIN related name...it is neither 2.0 nor 2.5 and if you bought yourself either one of those we are back at square 1 and I won't (be able to) install it for you when you come over for the UHI kit.
