Zombie thread --

I have this problem intermittently as well (2011, sport touring 7AT), even after swapping out multiple genuine apple and theoretically higher end USB connectors.

I've even had the NAV display/touch screen interface mysteriously go out entirely (though otherwise still play music without interruption!) once or twice (it comes back to life after shutting down and restarting car) -- anyone know what is the fix for this?

Worth nagging the dealership this month? Still under warranty until 2014...

Let me know what happens if you take yours in. I have the same USB connection problem as you. Also had the NAV display go black once or twice also.

I took mine in two years ago regarding the ipod connection. The told me nothing was wrong with it and sent me on my way. Wonder if they have since figured this out.

Hmm.

Will do.

I suspect the USB port is just crap. It's almost definitely related to a persistently loose/poor connection, because switching to a really snug fitting connector has minimized the problem, but a light bump on the connector, and the Nav interface will be affected, at least with a momentary loss of sound.

My guess is the only "fix" is to replace the whole unit and a true fix would require a different port module that isn't such a piece of crap or that takes a different kind of connector entirely.

Will the ipod interface work through the three aux jack ports? If so, I may just switch to that rather than try and have them tear my whole console apart...
