Hello all: I am about to buy a CX9 Grand Touring with Nav / RSE and Sirius. I will have the dealer install the switchbox. Two questions: If the dealer gives me grief on the switchbox install, has anyone installed it themselves? I am not afraid of cracking open the dash, have done it quite a bit before. Has anyone gotten the iPod module to work with Nav, Sirius and the Switchbox? |

| I just had my Sirius radio installed on my 2 month old 08 CX-9. It worked OK but later when I tried to set-up my Bluetooth I received no audible prompts. I had to return it to the dealer for repair who mumbled something about another wiring buss they should have used. Of course, everytime I take it in in something else becomes inoperable...this time my dash 12v outlet doesn't work. QUESTION: Will my iPod aux jack not work because I had the Sirius radio installed? What is that fix? | |
The dealer repaired my Bluetooth which was disabled when Sirius was installed. I just set up my phone and I noticed that the prompt and calls only come thru one speaker on my left. Is that normal or should it be coming thru all the speakers? Your answer will be appreciated.

Replying to: orlando7 (Dec 01, 2007 9:05 am) On my other vehicle, it also comes out of the driver-side speaker only. On Lexus, it comes out of both front speakers but is that better? I don't know. It is not stereo. More speakers do not help much. Due to the 1-channel nature of Bluetooth, try not to talk over each other during conversation.... P.S. there is stereo Bluetooth for music, but not for hand-free. |

There are several other posts that are similar to this, but I didn't see anything that answered this question specifically. Any input would be greatly appreciated! I recently purchased an '07 CX-9 Grand Touring with Nav, Satellite Radio and a DVD system. Like many others, I was very disappointed to discover that the presence of the satellite radio had disconnected the Aux jack for my .mp3 player (the aux jack is one of the main reasons I purchased a new car - I'm sick of using an FM transmitter!) and I didn't discover it until the purchase was complete. I purchased the car used. I don't want to spend the money for the switchbox to make the aux port and the satellite both work because I don't care about satellite radio - I'll never use it. I called the dealership and asked them if they could disconnect the satellite and re-connect the aux port. They said that they could. However, a question has since come up in my mind with respect to the DVD entertainment system. To play the sound from a DVD through the car speakers, I press the Media button on the Nav console, which I understand is also the button I would press to play .mp3s through the car speakers. I don't want to fix the aux port only to find that I can't play DVD audio through the car's speakers. I called the dealership and posed this question to them, and they "thought" it wouldn't be a problem. However, I don't want to go pay for this service only to discover when it's done that something else doesn't work. Do any of you have any experience with this? I LOVE my CX-9, but I'm frustrated out of my mind with how kludgy all of the electronics seem to be! Anyway, thanks in advance for your input!
