Yeah, I didn't search too much, didn't have time this morning.

Any way to load to music box from ipod/usb?

They still have an ipod integration cable or is it just through a regular usb connection?

Thanks yall

Same question about the way to connect the iPod. I have a USB plug in the center console, but no cables, etc. I'll try that when I get home.

Speaking of music/audio questions...Biggie, did your car reset the presets this morning? lol. I set up my FM1/FM2/XM1/XM2/XM3 and all but the FM2 reset this morning. Not sure why. Car started right up, so it wasn't because something drained the battery.

My FM presets reset yesterday afternoon for some reason, no clue on that.

From the Owners Manual:
MUSIC BOX HARD DRIVE (models with navigation system)
The Music Box hard drive audio system can store songs from CDs being played. The system has a 9.3 gigabyte (GB) storage capacity.
The following CDs can be recorded in the Music Box hard drive audio system.
● CDs that contain uncompressed audio files
● Hybrid Compact Disc Digital Audio (Hybrid CD-DA) specification in Super Audio CDs
● Compact Disc Digital Audio (CD-DA) specification in CD-Extras
● First session of multisession disc


I see no mention of iPod or USB song transfers being supported so I am going with NO as the answer.

From the Owners Manual:
IPOD PLAYER OPERATION
Connecting iPod
Open the console lid and connect the iPod cable to the USB connector.


Sounds like the standard Apple USB cable is used.

Thanks, I had read that, was just hoping there was something I missed.

Anyone who has tried, does a USB flash drive work just the same as an Ipod?

Curious if all the function remains the same.
