Iphone 4 BT connectivity

My I phone BT works fine in my 2011 RX450.

It seems I can't play music through the BT. The I phone shows the RX as a multimedia device?

Is this normal?

The BT pull-down is grayed out?

TIA

You have to pair the iPhone a second time using the BT menus. It makes 2 bluetooth connections at the same time -- one for phone, and one for music.

Now every time i get into the car turn on the BT on the phone, the music automatic plays. Very cool.

I had to reconnect my iPhone 4 once in a while, esp after upgrading OS. Maybe it's because I do not drive RX daily basis. BT phone always works, but for audio, I have to reconnect once in awhile
