Can anyone please tell me the procedure for entering the code into an Audio 10 radio/CD on a 2001, W210, E320CDi.
I've just replaced the battery and I can not find anything relating to this procedure in my owners handbook

most post 2000 radio's were once only coded, but ask MB for the code, most do not charge

have the code ready

as you'll need it. Press the on button ( lhs knob), and the radio prompts you with "code"
Press the rhs button and you will get a screen with four or five blanks waiting to be filled in. twiddle the rhs knob slowly and it will scroll you through 0-9. stop at the one you want and press the knob. it then moves on to the next blank....and so on until you are happy you have them all in the right place. Then press and hold the rhs knob for a couple of seconds, and presto chango, you should be in like flynn. You can then listen to wogan again.

Thanks gentlemen,
I have obtained the code from MB, but I couldn't figure out how to enter it.
I will try this at work tomorrow.

Thanks again Myros, it worked.
Mind you, its a long time since I've been in like Flynn and I certainly wouldn't be listening to Wogan if I was :)
