That explains why MB has moved everything into the centre consul now. This is also much more convenient.

The iPod cable came with the car, the USB cable I bought from MB dealer parts.

I'll see if I manage to get a picture of it here, if I remember how to do it...

I took a picture of it but it turned out a bit blurry. I could be seeing 8 as a 6, i.e. it could be 827 instead of 627. I'm quite sure it is 627 though. I'll check when I get the car back from service.

I could not find this from internet either. Even the MB did not list this for E-Class even though when I bought my cable the E-Class was listed as the first model on the label on the package.

Well,

Turns out to be that the correct part number for the USB cable is:

A 204 827 03 04
F30 - USB
