So, it sounds like Apple works great. Any android owners out there with a 2014 they can test?

Bluetooth from my playlist works great on the IPhone. If I want to use pandora I have to plug the USB cable in. The manual states android and blackberry don't have to be plugged in.

And to think Android has way more users than iOS...

I know but it doesn't matter. If google locked it down so manufacturers couldn't bastardize it with bloatware and create some kind of standard there might be a chance. But until then you'll have to put up with douchy gloating Apple fans like me. ;).

I can too but only if I initiate pandora from the phone. Are you saying you can use the pandora app on the touchscreen in my link and control pandora via Bluetooth?

I can change stations with steering wheel controls also, but only after I initiate pandora from my phone. It even shows song names/artists, etc on the screen. Pandora app initiated from mylink screen in truck says check connection if I am not plugged into usb port. But via media button on mylink and pandora from my phone, once it is playing I can forward or back with steering controls, etc...

Does your Pandora sound really faint/quiet compared to xm/radio?

 

Can you tell that it isplaying both audio channels through the stereo? My problem is it sounds like it is only playing one channel, b/c if I listen to the radio and then Pandora I can barely hear Pandora at the same volume level.

      I have an unused GM Authorization code.

      By s10dragracer888 · Posted

      As the title suggests, I have an unused General Motors authorization code for a set of bed perimeter lighting lamps that I bought. My truck was built with the option for perimeter lighting, and they worked without programming… So now I just have this code. What is it good for now? Can anyone here use it?

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.
