08 G37S and IPhone connection problem

I have an 08 G37 Journey with sport package with navigation and my problem is that when I try to connect my IPhone 3GS to my car using the supplied cord my car doesn't recognize it and I can't play my music using the cars stereo. Is there something I'm not doing right or is there something else I need to do.

I have an 09 but did you press the Aux button on the dash a few times? That should switch to the iPhone. If you can find an iPod, I would definitely try that first. The car will definitely not charge the phone without adapters.

Ipod cable?

Hi Guys,

Sorry, just a noob and picked up an 2008 37s coupe the other day. Loving it so far.

Is there a special ipod cable?

Just wondering because I notice that connection port I've never seen before in the centre console. I thought it was for vehicle diagnostics or something, but maybe that's the one for an ipod?

Thanks.

J

Yea the one in the console is the ipod connector. You should see ipod option come up after a few clicks of the aux button.
