E 500
I have one issue with my W211. The GPS seems to work but the location of the curser is about 100 miles from where I am. Everything else in the Comand System works great. Is it the antenna or something more serious. My E500 is not equipped with phone option; is there any reasonable Bluetooth option?
thanks in advance.
JL

I had that issue on a non-Mercedes (Mopar) recently and an update to the system corrected it. Didn't have the most recent software version. I am not the guy to ask about the nav on these cars but hopefully someone chimes in.
