After exhausting the forums and the net, am I right in concluding that the iPod integration on my 07 E350 sport (with Ipod connector in glove box) will basically only play songs in alphabetical order (?) or shuffle songs (using the phone steering wheel control) and that’s it?
Are there any work arounds to this? I would love to just have the iPod control itself and output thru the cars system. Not even too concerned about charging.
Thank you for any glimmer of hope.
