The one time I was successfuluckily the service tech was in the car with me. I tried several different songs and they all worked fine. I was using a Apple cable. I went in, signed paperwork to get my car back, went outside, didn't touch a thing and it was poor quality again.

Bluetooth streaming works great. The issue is that I can't charge the phone at the same time. Once I plug it in to power, the Bluetooth turns off.

I really don't understand the issue, my iPhone and cable work fine in 2 different Mercedes, a Ford F150, Porsche Carrera S and Acura RDX. I was given a Jaguar XF as a loaner car which uses the same Meridian system and it worked perfectly in there.

I'm going to stop by the dealer today and see if it's isolated to my car or if it works fine in other cars on the lot.

You can of course charge the iPhone from the front 12v 'lighter' socket using a suitable cable while streaming music from the phone via BT

RR obviously intended for this vehicle to function in the same manner but the fact they released it product which doesn't work leaves me dumbfounded.

I have always used an apple cable and in my last two Evoques the system has worked fine. Don't see the reason why I would want to bluetooth to stream music? Hard wired charges the phone and plays music, Bluetooth can look after the phone calls.

It is still connected as I see the track playing on the evoque touchscreen but no volume. If I disconnect the USB cable and reconnect the sound resumes but again only for a minute or so. It was playing fine before. I did update to iOS 5 last night but this may have nothing to do with it. Any thoughts?
