Can anyone decipher this W205 video..?
Not sure if this is Japanese ..?, but looks like it's some kind of dongle that disables the video lockout when the car is moving.

Not sure but I want it! Could it be some type of Xentry Star Diagnosis hack? And I believe it's Japanese.
Here is the translation: While driving a Mercedes-Benz W205 new C-Class at Jay Tech made TV canceller OBD coding type also I was so TV is seen. It seems also there for the new S-Class W222.

While I get your point I'm not sure if what you say can't be avoided. In the little time I've learned about the OBD2 port on the car it seems like it's a matter of finding the right app for our mobile devices to interface with with it. There really is an app for everything.

I agree.. especially since these cars are bordering on self-drive. The computer has access to throttle, brakes and steering. Without knowing the exact architecture behind the systems, who knows how much is linked to the OBD.
I shudder to think too, what Benz would charge to fix the computer system after it's been hacked.
Still interesting though how people seem to manage to hack this kind of stuff so quickly. I mean the car is barely out in the market - maybe they just leveraged an older style hack that worked on CLA
