Yes - you simply hold down the "next" arrow button - left to scan back, right to scan ahead. Doesn't work with the steering wheel controls, but on the head unit, it does.

doesn't work. I have a 2003 E500 and the arrows are left, right, up and down. up and down swithes the track but when I hold down the button it just moves from track to track. So I can't fast forward or rewind.
