Navigation 2004 E320
Try #2-a tad bit more technical and percise...
Facts:
2004 E320 6000 miles (Dealer Car) purchsed last weekend
****pit, COMAND, Navigation Head Unit installed
Orig. Sticker states "Tele Serv/Communication System
3-Tele Serv buttons installed (SOS/Wrench/I)
Head Unit has the DVD Slot
6-Disk Changer Harmon/Kardon Upgrade unit in dask
_________________________________________________
Questions & Concerns
1. True or False
Having the Navi Head Unit does NOT mean I have Navi capabilities
2. True or False
Having the three necessary Tele Serv buttons means I have Tele Serv capabilities
4. True or False
The Tele Serv works with GPS
5. Yes or No
If the Tele Serv uses GPS shouldn't the necessary equipment for Navi be there? Isnt it all GPS related?
I was told by the Surgarland Dealership that I wouldnt have the preinstalled COMAND Head Unit if I didnt have the Navi equipment...SO....Any information you can offer I would appreciate.
All the best,
Audrey

Open the trunk & look on the left side quarter panel wall. If you have Navi, there will be a DVD player behind a plastic bottom hinged door.
The slot on the head unit is a single slot CD player. (not all cars have the 6 CD stacker, then this would be the only CD player.) The Navi DVD does NOT go into the head unit anywhere.
While the Tele Aid buttons are in the car, they will do nothing untill an application is filled out, pre paid, and a password chosen, and faxed to Tele Aid to activate the service. it is not free. (Sort of like buying a pre paid cell phone without buying any minutes)

Okay, then i was told incorrectly. I was told by the dealer that the DVD I am to purchase for the Navigation to work is to be placed in the slot in the Head Unit (****pit....in the dash)
Okay, also, there is a vertical panel that opens and has a fuse box in it...is that the one, or take the side panel off itsself?
THANKS SO VERY MUCH FOR RESPONDING

The nav unit access door in the trunk takes NO looking to find. It is gray plastic, with hinges on the bottom. It is NOT concealed in any way. If you open the trunk & look on the drivers side lining of the trunk it is right there, as visible as a light charcoal gray toilet seat laying on dark gray carpeted floor. Its that visible. No looking for it. The trunk liner on that side is a different part than on non nav cars.
My car is in the shop, but my memory says it is about 5 inches high by 11 inches wide.
