First trouble shoot is make sure the bluethooth is on on the device and car. Yo check on the car go to menu audio BT Audio settings and see if the auto blutooth connect is on or off. Next go back and try select audio player, iirc there should be a little BT symbol next to whatever your player is called. If not try selecting it and see if it will pair. If all else fails, delete the portable player out and re-pair it (BT audio settings, register, then from the phone/player do what you normally would to pair the phone - menu settings blutooth setup register pair). Hopefully one of these works for you

You can connect your phone if you have Bluetooth. Don't need Navi, just the "push to talk" switch

You don't need navigation, all 2010+ have bluetooth phone and audio, with or without nav.

To clarify (in the US anyway)-

Only cars with nav have bluetooth at all for 06-09 models. None of these can do music over BT, just phone calls.

2010+ models all have BT (including audio) regardless of nav.
