Same song goes on everytine I plug in my iPhone.
If you are playing music over Bluetooth and connect it; it will continue playing on that track.
Also, you may want to simply reboot your phone. That sometimes does the trick as well.
It doesn't do this on a 2015 E Class, basically same system. I wonder if it's something the service guys can disable (like turn off auto play when connected). Drives me nuts.
If I have mixcloud playing something and then plug in it will play off of mixcloud w/o me fussing around.
However, if I plug in my phone first w/o anything playing it will default to the first track on itunes.
Now, my girl hates the first track on my itunes. So she is getting really frustrated with hearing a 3 sec, 5 sec clip lol. I need a solution that does not involve deleting the first track.

Since I stream all my music and nothing local, what I did was delete all tracks, then added a 3 second silent track to my library. Problem was solved for me.
Might not work for you since you play local music as well.
