3-5-7 trick suppose to bring up a menu in Command Nav that will allow you to change the start up logo from MB to AMG. For details search E55 forums for "3-5-7 trick".

I have tried couple times but I havent been successful. Anyone out there got this to work with W209?

...there is a huge diference between a 211 comand and a 209 comand...the most important difference is MANUFACTURER - your 209 has an ALPINE MCS II (which isn't even a true COMAND) where as the 211 has a becker COMAND...

no matter what you try - it WON"T work.
