537...please verify
I've read all the threads regarding the 537 menu and the ability to turn on DVD capabilities. My question is will it work on a'05 E320 w/out the nav? I've read conflicting info. as to whether or not it'll work on an '05. As always, thanks!

I think the answer is.. maybe. I dont know much about the 05s except that they switched to DVD drives. It should - try it out. With MB, there are never any certainties..

'05 E320 CDI here, (US model), built 03/05 and DVD discs are not recognized in the COMAND HU 
"maybe" is by far the best answer unfortunately...

Nothing MB related (sorry)
That 537 trick (or whatever) can be done on SOME early 2003 US DVD comands... not on all. It can NOT be done on 2004+ US comands.
And if one upgraded the software on the early 2003 comands to get MP3 capability, it is not possible to do the 537 trick anymore.
If you want to be able to watch movie DVDs, you really have to swap your unit for a Euro spec head unit...
