I have a 2005 ML Special Edition,
and there's nothing good to say about the navigation quality or detailed performance of the MCS COMAND that Mercedes-Benz uses in these vehicles.
Don't get me wrong, it works, and it has always worked (functionally).
But the navigation itself is clueless and retarded.


First chance I get at doing some sort of aftermarket Navigation swap with this piece of OEM junk, I'm doing it.

Wow, $695 for the MCS only is pretty stiff. I have the OE system from my 01 ML55 that I would like to sell for $500.

The MCS, full set of 10 Nav CDs w/ case, Owner's book for the MCS, Overhead LCD, CD Changer, under seat VCR. I will be listing it on ebay later today.

The $500 includes shipping to the lower 48 for anybody on the forum. I am going to list it for a buy-it-now on ebay for $600 w/ shipping.

I have seriously upgraded my system and have no further use for the OE gear.

Yeah............................. a $300.00 Garmin 360W @ Wal Mart works better than OEM gps in the ML. Plus you can use it in all of your cars etc.
