OK ...just got my 04 E55...weather is crappy here so I have been playing with everything in the garage. Found you can't scroll radio presets on the steering wheel..the Quick Tip COMAND book said you can change this default but I couldn't figure out how. I did a search here and see this is one of those dumb little mistakes that can't be fixed apparently. I also read a little bit about Linguatronis but in the search I did there was not a lot of info on it. So here are the questions...can Linguatronics be installed/purchased at the dealer level and does it work on a US COMAND ? Can it be used without a phone installed ? TIA

 

Spoke with Steve & Dean from MBenzNL sometime back and they said that Voice Control system can be retrofitted. I believe they also said the phone option is not needed, but can't remember for certain about the latter part.

 

Thanks...I will have to check with a local dealer....wish those guys would visit Chicago !!!

 

...why do you assume that those guys wouldn't visit chicago?

greetingz,

 

Figured that might get your attention !!

 

wow.. i never thought about the voice option.
imagine all the things you can do with it.
say "activate trunk monkey"
