Learning about my new 2019 S450 W222
G'Day fellow MB owners.
I have an interesting problem. Having recently purchased a 2019 S450 (W222) I am now getting acquainted with the mirriad of different functions it has to offer. When it cam eo t voice control of the navigation and/or radio etc I found a problem. At first it would not respond to my commands at all ie "Navigate to' or 'station XX' etc however by chance and out of shear frustration I discovered it all works but only if I yell !?!?!? Yes, yell or say the command very loudly 'NAVIGATE TO'
My question now is can you adjust the sensitivity of the microphone on the S450 ??? If not what else could be causing this rather strange symptom. Maybe my car is just deaf ha ha ha

Congrats on the new car. Late model V6 W222 is one of the best preowned MBs on the market now.
Try calling someone while in your car so they can give you feedback on the sound quality. This will give you hints on what to do next.
Also try Apple CarPlay. Voice control with apple carplay is pretty reliable for me in a Porsche. Different car, but it gives you something to try. Or Android if you have that.
