Voice Command, Need some help

Hey guys,


I'm struggling here. I've searched the web and here and am stumped. I have a 2008 E63 that I got used with Premium II and Parktronic. I have the lever for Voice Command, and I have a a manual for the Voice Command, but it doesn't do squat. Is there a way to tell if it really came with the option, or is the presence of the lever on the wheel proof enough? If the answser is, "there's a lever dummy, there you go", then it's a trip back to the dealer for me! Just wondering if there is a way to tell for sure, like a module or a fuse or something.


Thanks all.

Thanks bud, PM on it's way! This would be cool if I have it. Another little reason my boss's 2010 M3 is sub-par to my E63! (I know, I know, different cars, different class!)

Just an update to whomever might read this, MB had no issues replacing under the aforementioned bulletin. I works fine now, I just don't know how to use it yet.


Thanks again konigstiger for your help.
