Yeah, I get emails but it's random. Meaning, sometimes they come, sometimes they don't. And it takes an awfully long for them to load.

I did do what jtrue said but I also thought there was another step. Perhaps I am wrong about that.

Also have to go phone settings on car display and select messages and then there are several options that have to be checked off.

I receive emails on a consistent time. Here is the catch: When you start your GS then go to iphone, to settings, then click Notifaction Off then back on, then go to mail in settings, click your email account, then click email account off then on then back to normal in your iphone. You will have email until you turn off the car. I respond to all texts and email by holding Siri Button on phone and ask to respond to the last text or email and it does it through bluetooth over the car system. Best we can do until car play comes out for the 2015 models.

Are you serious?

EVERY time you start your car, you do that voodoo dance so that you can receive emails??

Screw that.
