2009 C300 4matic
Bluetooth and GPS question

Good morning everyone!

I'm new to this forum and have just acquired a 2009 C300 4matic sport. I live in Canada. This is my first Benz so I'm pretty excited to have this car.

I had a couple of questions.

The first is around the Bluetooh. I'm able to connect my Blackberry Bold 9900 and it works fine. However, if I'm on the phone and I am parked and turn my car off, the bluetooh and the call will disconnect as soon as I open the door. I'm used to the bluetooth disconnecting and the call being transferred to the handset, but in the Benz, it disconnects the call as well. Is there a setting or a way to make sure that the call continues on the handset when i turn off the car? It's just strange because other vehicles I've driven (Honda Civic and Audi A4) automatically transfers the call to the handset without disconnecting it when I turn off the vehicle.

The other question is around after market GPS. My car currently does not have navigation, but I'm wondering if there are any good integrated GPS/MP3 systems out there. I haven't called the dealership yet, but I thought I'd tap into the knowledge of all the people here so that I can at least do a bit of research around first.

I guess there is one more question I have. Is there a setting I can change so that the display scrolls through the title of a song when I'm playing an MP3 CD?

Thanks to everyone for the help!
