I get a blank screen. I can only see the songs where you see the gas gauge and mileage etc.

I think that's how it is. It's the same thing for me.

If you have the Command System and the Ipod integration kit it should be displayed in the HU and the dashboard.. I think if you have the non-MM .. it will only display in the dashboard display...

Nothing to do with 08 or 09.
If you have ipod integration system will show on your cluster only.
If you dont have it but have the jack input on the glove box will not show any were except on the ipod it self.
If you have factory installed media interface will show on the command.
Not sure if media interface is availleble without command.

I'm not sure if I have the iPod integration, but I do have the iPod cord in the glove department.
My 09 w/o MM or COMAND shows the songs in both places.

Actually, I don't know if I have MM or COMAND or not, but I don't have the pop-up screen. That's for sure.

This is wrong.

The iPod integration kit in MY 09 and 08 cars with Audio 50/COMAND is operated solely via the instrument cluster. In MY 10, however, cars can be equipped with the optional UCI (universal connection interface) in lieu of the old iPod integration kit. iPods connected via UCI can be controlled via the HU.

iPod integration on cars with Audio 20 and UMI/Nav +4 regardless of model year can be operated via the HU.

Can you tell me what part of that is wrong?

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I was only addressing the 08 and 09 part of your post. COMAND in 08 and 09 was not available with UCI and as a result, the iPod control was only available via the cluster.

You are correct about the media interface being able to control the iPod. Technically, however, it's not necessarily a factory installed option. It's readily available as a retrofit for Audio 20 systems.

Edit: I see you're in Canada. In the US, UCI was only available starting in 2010. Apparently Canadian vehicles have been shipping with this for a while. That explains the confusion.

The new cable is to be able to charge the latest ipods & iphone, but should only be replaced upon request.

I know there's the new update CD out for the command unit that Mercedes charges 200$ for, could that have been what you were charged for in result giving you the Ipod song selection on your HD screen instead of in the instrument cluster?
