Description: Mercedes-Benz map activation codes, vehicle lookup, coding services, and professional workshop tools.


MBRetrofit Tools provides online tools and services for Mercedes-Benz owners and independent workshops. Owners can look up vehicle information from a VIN, prepare navigation updates, and purchase activation codes for supported navigation systems. Workshops can use professional tools and the REST API to integrate supported tasks into their own systems.

Compatibility depends on the exact vehicle and fitted equipment. For a map update, check the VIN, navigation generation, region, and version, then prepare the update media before purchasing a code. For coding work, email the VIN and requested features so we can confirm the available options and provide a quote.

The [map update guide](/guides/map-code) explains preparation and activation. The [coding page](/coding) describes available services, and the [developer guide](/guides/api) explains API access, the test environment, and credit-based operations. Current prices and availability appear in the relevant purchase flow.
