Comand System - Help and information

[dipper17]

Hi there,

I have just taken delivery of a C240 with Comand. The car has done a few miles but is in great condition. It was registered in the UK (imported from Europe new) in April 2001.

What I was wanting to find out was what type of Comand I have got. Is it DX or none DX. I would like to update the CD-ROM but don't know which one to get.

My current CD-ROM appears not to have all of the streets in it. When I look on the Blaupunkt or TeleAtlas sites they have CD-ROM for the DX with all of the roads. The current CDROM says that it is DX compatable.

Also, is it as simple as just buying a new CD-ROM.

Thanks

Hi
If its DX, it says it is as you turn it on.

MB dealers (the sensible ones) have the latest upgrade disk. which will upgrade most systems to DX ...

You also need to get the latest map disk (2002) from Teleatlas (cheaper then buying at MB dealer, see www.teleatlas.com) - all the streets are on the disk - BUT they are not all in the index - so you cant select them - aaggh. 2002 is much better then 2001

Cheers
