Just bought new Kuga and have connected my iPod via the 3.5mm jack socket. The car has factory Bluetooth and after some fumbling I managed to get the voice command to interact with the phone. So far so good.

Using the aux input I can listen to music from the iPhone. Good so far...

My question is this... I read in the manual that I can control my iPod (or iPod within the iPhone if you get my drift) using the voice command function. How? What enables the Kuga to "talk" to the iPhone music player. Does the Bluetooth connection somehow magically do this? Sorry if I'm being very thick!

To control the ipod using the voice system you must have the USB system installed. Mine doesn't have the usb on it but through using a 'Kensington' remote control system I'm able to control the ipod through a tiny switch panel mounted anywhere I want to mount it.
Kensington is the manufactuer and dixons sell them though better deals are available off the web. Hope this helps.

I was looking at http://www.ford-mobile-connectivity.com/ and noticed that the bluetooth can be used for streaming of music from Nokia phones at the moment. I have version 3.00 of the OS for iPhone and will test this when Kuga arrives on the 22nd May!

I have the Bluetooth option and an iPhone 3g and they sync together really well. Radio cd or aux (iPod) vol dips when incoming call. It takes a while to input numbers into kuga but then voice dial works a treat

Also I recommend the BRODIT mounting for the iPhone. Not cheap by any means (about £40) but it holds the phone securely and swivels for viewing in landscape format.
