    Default Compatible iPods for Mazda MPS??

    Well, I have the factory Maz ipod connector in my MPS and it doesnt work with my iphone.

    Does anyone know of, or have currently running in their MPS, a compatible iPod?

    I was told by Maz that the Nano has some issues, of course the shuffle doesnt work (different connector), and thus that means i'd be limited to the classic 120Gb type of iPod...

    Any advice would be appreciated

    I'm sure the Nano should work, but just depends on what series they are.

    Classics might be your best bet and the storage is a decent size so its not too bad.

    on the AUX jack sure. I have a genuine ipod cable, which can control an ipod from the steering controls... the iphone does not work with the maz genuine ipod connector.

    I use my 30gb Video Ipod in my MPS, but it's only through the audio jack in the centre console.
    Can you get cables to link them up properly and use the steering wheel controls?

    I've got a 30gb Video iPod too, mine is through the Mazda iPod connector which charges, and allows track and playlist selections to be controlled. The downside I've found with mine is it is not so easy to naviagate - ie. playlists are shown as numbers so you need to know what they correlate to in your ipod and when you disconnect the iPod then reconnect it is meant to stay on the playlist/track you last played, sometimes this does not happen and I have to cycle through numerous playlists till I get back to where I was
