Comand Issues with 03 E320
hi all,
i have an 03 E320 with about 60k miles. so for the last couple days my comand unit has been really acting up. It turns on ok and after about 10 seconds working fine it freezes for a variable length of time. Depending on the functionality i am using, it displays the the ff symptoms:
- if i am playing audio i.e. cd, radio or aux, i lose volume.
- if i am playing dvd the picture frame freezes and i lose volume also
- if i am using nav, it says navigation device unavailable, and then flickers between the nav and audio screens.
when the freeze ends, everything returns to working as is. this happens intermittently ranging from every minute to every 3 minutes or so. REALLY frustrating.
anyone have this issue? and what was the solution.
any help appreciated.

Obviously without the car it is impossible to tell you what is wrong, but it is most likely a component. I have seen the Command itself cause it, the CD Changer, and also what is called an Audio Gateway (AMP, and the "master" of the system). Gonna have to have an MB dealer look at it.
