He has a C320 which came from the factory with one already. Yours did not and therefore it experiences issues as Steve has mentioned previously.

the 2005 203s with the standard climate controls do not seem to be willing to work with the digital climatronic...

The G500 in which we tested the DVD comand compatibility DID take the updated digital climatronic unit as well...these climatronic units are all hit or miss...
