No. It won't. Only voice connectivity. If you want music playback, you'll need a whole new interface. Dension is a good place to start.

If you don't already have an aux input, do that. Then pick up one of these on ebay for $6. Plug it into a micro usb charger in the cig lighter. Done.

It's a bluetooth audio dongle. Take the cap off and it has a USB plug. You can plug that into a usb charger. I prefer the smaller ones like this:

Of course, you must pair your audio device(phone) to the bluetooth dongle. There is usually no passcode and you only have to pair it once as the connection is remembered. Then in IDrive, you select auxillary input and you do any and all controls on the phone. If you have a decent phone mount, it's easy, safe and legal to control. |

Also what would sound better the aux or using this Bluetooth dongle? |
