MP3s in a 2003 E320

I would love to be able to play MP3s in my 2003 E320. I contacted my dealer with the part number (W 211 589 06 22 00) and was told that this part is not available yet in the US.

A couple of questions.

I have the Audio 50 with the CD changer. My car was built around January 2003 and delivered in late February. Will this update allow me to play MP3s considenering I have a CD drive and not a DVD drive as CD drive 0?

Is this update available in the US? How can I get a copy?

Thanks for your help.

JK

You need a COMAND or an MP3 CD-changer.

I thought that the Audio 50 with the CD Changer option was Comand? This was the only radio option for my car. The standard uses the Audio 10.

There is no Audio 10 for the W211. The only head unit options are Audio 20, Audio 50, Audio 50 APS, and COMAND.

In the US, ALL 2003 cars come with Audio 50. In the US, all 2004/2005 cars come with COMAND.

CD changer has nothing to do with it, it is a separate module under the head unit.
