COMAND display on Speedo display...

My brother has an 06 CLS500 and I have an 06 E55. My brothers speedo display displays whatever the COMAND display shows when it is on audio display. What I mean by this is that if the audio info (track name/artist name) is displayed on the COMAND's display, it will also be shown on the speedo display. I took my car in to have them make mine do that and they cant figure it out. I even took in my brothers car so they could "study" it and they still couldnt figure it out. Anyone know what I need to do to get this? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

E55 then E63, now back to an E55
Scroll through the options via left buttons on steering wheel, all E's I've seen display song/ID3 tag info in display next to outside temp/current speed - when I'm on that setting I'm allowed to use up & down on steering wheel to switch tracks or SAT radio stations........

agree the format might be slightly different but the info is displayed. Use the up and down arrows to find it. I assume the NAV info displays correctly in the speedo ie its not a connection problem.

The MB dealership says that they need to figure out some kind of code to get it done, I have checked everything I can figure out in the steering wheel options. Any other advice plz?

It doesn't make sense to me that you can't already do this.
Can you take pics of your COMAND with the mp3 tags showing and the speedo displays using the up/down arrows?
