Do Mercedes-Benz C-Class infotainment systems frequently malfunction o r lag in Pakistan?

Many C-Class owners report that the COMAND o r MBUX infotainment systems become slow, unresponsive, o r freeze, especially in the W205 and W206 models. Is this due to high temperatures, outdated software, o r compatibility issues with local mobile networks and apps? Are there common fixes, o r is dealer intervention usually required?

Yes, issues with the keyless entry and push-start system are frequently reported by Pakistani owners, especially after 2–3 years of usage. Common problems include:

Key Not Detected errors even when the key is nearby

Delayed engine start o r unresponsive push-start button

System malfunction in humid o r very hot weather

Weak key fob battery causing intermittent failure

These issues are often linked to:

Poor battery quality in local markets

Electronic interference from nearby signals o r buildings

Moisture damage due to rainy weather o r car washes

Replacing the key fob battery with a high-quality brand and keeping the system dry usually helps. However, if the problem lies with the car’s internal receiver o r antenna, diagnosis and repair at an authorized service center is required—which can be costly.
