2018 S560 and 2019 E450 Wagon.
So I guess that is just for Europe? because in the USA Car Play seems to work fine.

?? Car Play works in Europe without this if specified in Comand. I think this is an after market fix for Audio 20

comand is an option in europe so not all cars have it. Smartphone integration can be optioned for carplay with audio20 but most mercedes cars dont have it so this is a nice activation product.

Not that I have noticed. I dont really use mercedes infotainment at all anymore as I prefer apple carplay for navigation and music.
