Mercedes W205 Head Unit Repair – Audio 20 / COMAND (NTG5 Entry) System

Are you experiencing issues with your Mercedes-Benz W205 head unit? Common faults include:

  • Constant reboot/restart loop
  • Vertical or horizontal white lines on the screen
  • Fading, glitching, or distorted display
  • Freezing or unresponsive controls
  • No audio output

These symptoms are typically caused by a known manufacturing fault in the NTG5 Entry head units, affecting vehicles produced between 2014 and 2017. The issue lies in the software, which can corrupt itself over time — even though it may appear to be a screen fault, the problem is actually with the head unit itself.

✅ The Fix: Software Update

This issue is fully repairable with a genuine Mercedes-Benz software update — but it requires specialist equipment, usually only available at main dealerships.

That’s where we come in.

  • ✅ Use of authentic dealership-grade tools and software
  • ✅ Same solution as the dealer — without the dealer prices
