Mercedes sat nav update: Garmin, Becker, NTG5.5 and COMAND
Between about 2011 and 2020, Mercedes-Benz fitted several navigation systems side by side, often even in the same model series. An A-Class W176, for example, can have a Becker module, a Garmin card or a COMAND. Model and year are therefore not enough; what matters is the number on your card or module.
How to identify your system
• Garmin MAP PILOT Star1: SD card with number A218 906 …, A-, B-, CLA- and GLA-Class, among others.
• Garmin MAP PILOT Star2: SD card with number A213 906 …, C-Class W205, GLC and V-Class (Audio 20 CD with touchpad), among others.
• Audio 20 with NTG5.5: SD card such as A205 906 2707, C-Class W205 from approx. 07/2018 and CLS C257, among others.
• Becker MAP PILOT: separate module, usually in the glovebox, with a module number such as M046 (rev1) or M084 (rev2).
• COMAND Online (NTG 4.5/4.7, 5.1, 5.2): no SD card; the update comes on a USB stick with an activation code (PIN).

Frequently asked questions
Don't "Star1" and "Star2" also exist for COMAND? Yes, the names are used for both Garmin and COMAND, but the updates are not interchangeable. If you have a Garmin SD card, you need a Garmin card again.
How does installation work? With Garmin, Becker and NTG5.5 you swap the SD card. With COMAND you insert the USB stick, follow the update in the menu and enter the PIN.
