GL320
Command & Other Questions

Hi All,

I am about to take my 2009 GL320 to the dealer to fix some cosmetic issues. I am wondering if anyone else encountered similar issues. A small section of the right rear seat has become discolored. My interior is black, and I initially thought it was some kind of stain, but I can't get it off. Also the small hood emblem lost its 80% of its blue. And the plastic molding which goes on the front and rear doors seems to be getting unglued. Pretty crazy stuff for a $70K vehicle, which is less then a year old.

Also did anyone update command in 2009 GL to a newer version, which has guides when rear camera comes on and audio fade during navigation announcements?

Thanks

I saw a pic of the rear-view with guides and asked about it awhile back - never found out how to get this. Also, in the 2009 GL manual, there is a reference to audio fade for Nav but the option doesnt exist in the menu on the actual vehicle. LMK if you have any luck finding a viable update that adds this in.
