Anyone know if you can or how to listen to pandora from my Iphone in my car? I have the nav system, when I connect my Iphone with the USB connector it plays for like a min and then shuts off and says that no audio source can be found. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong???

I've done it once or twice with iphone 4 ios5 streaming via bluetooth and didn't have that issue.

If you are willing to spend around $500.00 the Vaistech ml+ unit is awesome. I have had it for about 3 months and use it daily. Search and you can find alot of information on Vaistech.

I listen to pandora daily in my 08. I use the auxiliary cord though.

Good call on the Aux cord! i thought about that after I posted the original question. Good to know it works! Can you still plug your phone in via the USB for charging while your listening or does that jack it up? Thanks for the input!

Me three. I'd recommend an aux cable that connects to the dock connector rather than the headphone jack on the iphone. The sound is noticeably better.

Unless you have the new generation Nav that has A2DP (Bluetooth wireless music streaming), I think 2010-2012 models) I suggest a blackberry music gateway. It's a small square, maybe 2", plug your aux line into it and keep it in your center console and you can play music wirelessly from your iPhone with Bluetooth. It's $50 and well worth every penny to not be co tangly plugging in when you get in the car.

how's the audio on the BB gateway? I tried a similar BT music receiver from belkin and from miccus and was very disappointed with the audio fidelity. I'm currently using an aux cable but hate all the hassle.

I personally stream my music via BT, quality is a lot better. I used the USB cord several times to listen on pandora and I think what happens is the app itself idles? so the music cuts off...

Quality is great, can't tell the difference from an aux cable and the BB gateway. If anything the Bluetooth streaming is better.

+1 I got the same setup in my 07 is350 and it works great.. as an added plus the iphone handles both connections at the same time so when you get a call the music pauses and it switches to your car bluetooth to take the call and then switches back when you are done and your music starts playing again i love it

also i ONLY listen through pandora so i know this works great lol

Though I'm sure the A2DP functionality is very convenient, you get the same coordination between music and phone (i.e., music pauses when a phone call comes in, and resumes when you hang up) when using the dock-to-aux cable.

Siri works though BT on my '08 IS but music doesn't stream thru. Weird that Siri works with BT.
