so we all know the audio system is bad but this is becoming ridiculous

the IPOD integration just stopped working. it gets stuck at "Ipod reading". changed cables, no difference. this is for a standard 160gig ipod, classic one. worked fine for many months.

anyone have a solution for this?

second problem is with bluetooth audio from my android phone. It also stops streaming to the head unit, even though they are connected to eachother and audio is enabled. I had this before and I don't remember how I fixed it, but it wasn't easy.
Anyone know a solution/reason for this?
 
I have heard the iPods have more issues than iPhones for some reason. Maybe further compatibility issues manifest themselves with the older Apple devices?

Does vehicle fall under this TSB?
