E300 MY17
MY17 E300 Command Version

Hi, I've just purchased an E300 MY17 in Australia and would like to know what the latest Command version is for this car. I presume the only way to get it updated is via the dealer.

I also understand that I can (but haven't yet) connect my car to a wifi hotspot. If I do that, can I download the latest Command Version over the wifi? If not, what does the wifi functionality actually do? Note that I use Car Play so wondering what benefit I get in connecting the car to the Internet.

Lastly, where do I check which version I currently have?

PS: Very happy with the car. It is in mint condition and looks brand new. I bought it from a Mercedes Dealership and received a 2 year warranty on it!

I’ve read that dealers only update it under warranty if you face problems with the OS and screen. Otherwise Independent Merc Specialist mechanics with subscription to the MB cloud can do it too. However they both will charge you labour to update it; Ammstar Fairfield who I go to now told me frankly they look to recoup their high subscription fees in their rates for any software updates. For instance my Parktronic with self parking has a stored error code, but still works fine. He said he can update the software but he would charge for the time to download and install the update via Xentry. I never use Self parking and the cameras work, so I haven’t bothered with an update.
