Nice video. Too bad there are issues reconnecting after a restart without getting a firmware update.

Yeah :/

But when you get comfy, it will just take 10-15 seconds to connect so its okey, you can live with it.

Great video

The instructions are great. I also have to do the reconnect every time after restart. Someone said that the way around that is a firmware update: how does one get that update? Dealer?

I tried this. Found a video on YT. The problem I'm having is that I can only have either the phone or audio BT connected. I can't have both otherwise, I get choppy audio.

yes, go to the dealer and tell them you want it updated. They did mine early last year for my 2010 E350. It’s worked perfectly since then.

Do you cars have terrible sound quality when using audio streaming via bluetooth? I started recently using audio streaming with NTG 4.0 (W212 2010 firmware update) but sound quality is poor. You don't even have to play music with high volume to notice how bad the quality is.
