They also did a software update and now I have "perspective view" on NAV, but no song titles on CD's.? I haven't checked for MP3 yet.
Picked up the car today from the dealer after service dept. was closed.? Bluetooth seems to function but the cradle doesn't charge the phone and it went dead.
I will talk to the dealer tommorow, but do any of you learned forumites know of something I can check like a certain unconnected cable to save myself the 80 mile round trip to the dealer?
BTW they charged me two hours of tech time for bluetooth activation.? Is that about right or did I get the shaft (again)?

The January '05 SB is not so specific in this regard. The December '04 version was very specific in its language about cradles not working for certain '04 models. I have an old copy at home and will review it later tonight to be sure.

[/quote]Thanks. I'll fax these to my dealer. Hopefully they will make things right. I appreciate you helping me out with this.
