New Owner 2010 S550 Bluetooth adapter question and rattle



Just picked up a 2010 Mercedes S550 4Matic a couple weeks ago and I love it! I noticed I am not able to do the Bluetooth audio but it has a IPod plug in, inside the glove box. Is there an adapter I can buy so I can wirelessly stream music off my phone? Also one other minor thing, I have a slight rattle in the plastic somewhere inside the car. Almost sounds like it’s a plastic trim under one of the seats, any common issues? Thank you!

Beautiful car Jason!

As you have questions I would encourage you to use the search function, specifically the "Search this Forum" drop-down on the right side of the page. You'll find a lot of your questions have already been answered and will not have to wait around for someone else to see, understand and respond to your post!

Do you have interior photos as well? These cars are just stunning.

Is that the right one to order for my 2010? If so I should order it now then! Thank you!

Let me know please if that one works for you. I have tried the same one, just without the cable. Mine plugs directly into the bottom of the device. Is there a difference ? Or is it maybe bc my car is a 2008 ?

It works to stream music. However I have a Galaxy S8 and didnt read the playlist on the center screen.. Maybe you will have better luck with Iphone. on the song and playlist display.

I just received my tune2air wma3000a and have it all it paired up. When I go to audio and go it usb or or media nothing is working. Did I order the wrong part? It’s all paired up but not transmitting over the vehicle. Thank you!

Bovee WMA3000A is what works perfectly for me in my 2013, not sure if the model year makes a difference. In audio source, media interface is the one to select. Good luck.

Did you ever find a fix for you problem?

I have a 2010 s550 also and my new tune2air wma3000a isn’t working. How did you resolve this problem ?

I also have a 2010 with interior rattles. I found mine to be coming from the LED lighting under the wood panels on the front doors. There is a clear piece of plastic which becomes loose as interior temperatures go up and down. As the rattle is occurring, try placing your finger under the wood and pressing up to see if it stops.

I tried bovee and coolstream. Sound quality is better in bovee.

Found this one on Amazon for $34.20/ That's over $50 less than the BoVee at $87.95.

Wondering if it's compatible and has anyone tried it.
