I dont know if this was posted already but i was too lazy to read 43 pages.
U can always do the "temporary bypass" if you dont want to cut wires.
Not sure about years, but this was done on 06 IS350.
Go to "MENU" then enter the "VOLUME" section.
tap upper left corner, lower left corner, upper left corner, lower left corner"
a MAINTENANCE Screen will come up.
then press OVERRIDE.
then go back.
voila.. navie usage while driving.
untested on ML but i think it works.
its a 5 second procedure. doenst take cutting wires if ur scared u will mess up.
otherwise, i would recommend the wire cutting for long term effectiveness.

this will only work for the older software version which come with the 06 models. forgot which version number it was.

This messes up the Navi..
I was driving and went the wrong way.
The navi doesnt re-route and the navi doesnt tell you wen the next turn is comin up and doesnt tell you to get on or get off the high way..

Does this happen when you have the mod switched turned OFF as well?

I did the hack..
Now my navi id missed up..
I think Im going to re-wire the wires back and hopefully it works again..
I dont know if i wired the wrong wires or not..
I wired the light pink wire with the white wire with the black strip.

"WHITE (with silver paint) wire on connector P1"
Silver paint = silver dashes or spots...
Try again with the correct wire and you'll get it all working...

Yes, it works for all IS350s, the nav has not changed. Yes, it overrides the mp3 and phone book and caller id and bluetooth... It overrides everything EXCEPT destination entry while moving.
that sucks
