USB port with no media
Hello everyone,
Neither of my USB's have the media Icon (usually #2 usb port has media icon) so I cannot use any of the ports for mirroring/android auto etc.
I thought only 2015's were missing this option but mine is a 2016 C300 4matic and no media usb port either.
Any work arounds? anyone in the same boat as me?
Thanks in advance

The first model year that had Android Auto etc. as an option was 2018. It was a bit of a hack, though, because it wasn't compatible with COMAND, so either you got the smartphone interface option or COMAND. Starting with the 2019 FL model the smartphone interface became standard in the USA and could be added elsewhere as an extra cost option. If your car has COMAND, then some of the USB ports should be usable for music files. If you have Audio 20, then I believe external media is not an option.
