2004 E55 IPhone bluetooth puck with tail works!

[PlayaAMG]

Anyone have any luck with the "puck with tail" in a 2004 CLK55?

Has anyone tried this with the 3G iPhone?
I've read a few things that say many cars that worked with the first gen iPhone, no longer work with the 3G iPhone

mine worked fine with iPhone 3G except for callierID and phonebook upload.
all of sudden, phonebook is uploaded; callerID still won't work unless it's number on my phonebook...

Did your car already come with pre-wired for phone? I don't have a phone on mine so i didn't know if i can just buy the puck. Last time i checked, the dealer wanted $2k for the install of the wiring and phone.

bt puck w/ tail only works on 03-04 211s...
if urs is 05+, then u need to spend like 2k for factory kit...
or mObridge kit at half price...

recently, i've noticed the bt puck not being able to connect to my phone when i start the car... i have to manually attempt to pair it from the phone several times to do it... when i get in the car again, i have to restart the same process... anyone else have this problem???

Hi guys, l am in Australia and have a 2004 W211 E55 AMG. l have just bought an Iphone 3G. l have a Viseeo MBU-1000 latest version bluetooth unit that sits in the original MB cradle. l had a Motorola V6 phone that worked perfectly in the car in every way. the phone was broken so l have updated to a new 3G iphone and am having all sorts of problems.
The phone connects to the car via bluetooth with no problems.
It sort of downloads the phone book but not 100%
And the contact names once downloaded to the car are not in standard format, they are in long strings of mostly numbers with some letter, very strange.

Can someone please help????
What is the best solution to get my new 3G iphone to fully work in my car???

Thanks
Mark
