2012 ML350

2015 ML400

We just bought a new ML400 3.0 liter bi-turbo.
First impression is terrific. A lot more power than the ML350 we replaced.

One question though - We can't connect our Ipod as before. The center console media cable is not a 3 wire pigtail - just a single wire that looks like it connects just to an iphone and that's it.

Does anyone know if there is any adapter?

Thanks

You should be able to get a 30 pin connector at the service department.

Starting in 2015, Mercedes switched to the lightning connector - Apple has been using that for a few years. I feel your pain, I keep a 64gb iPod Touch in the center console for my music.

2012mlblue, not sure if you've tried it but if you use the 30 pin adapter in the center console you get all of the apple interface options and the sound quality is far better than through Bluetooth...
