Yes, because that is MMI 3G+ and not MIB2.

MIB2. Men in Black 2nd movie? Sorry, not familiar with that acronym but are you referring to the new MMI?

Restoring my iPod under Mac didn't make any difference. I still have to elicit "Playlist", "Album", or another header each time I start the car to get it to actually play. But not so bad considering now a ten year old device that simply remains in the cubby.

My iPhone 6s (BT connected) and twin SD cards work fine, as does the DVD/CD player, as well as Sirius and of course HD Radio. I've never bothered with the hard drive Jukebox allocation. How many sources do we need?

oh man Huey, are you using all 80 GB, or could you live with 64 GB? That's a lot of music. My wife has an 80 GB classic also that works perfectly in her Volvo.....but I've got a 64 GB touch in my TT and it works seamlessly. You've spent $55k or thereabouts on a TTS, treat yourself to a new iPod.....64 GB is only $299, and it will work perfectly in the TT. If I had to reset my iPod every time I started the car up, it would drive me absolutely nuts.

Good point. It's not easy being a frugal Yankee sometimes. 😉

Of course I can just BT stream or USB connect my iPhone 6s, which works flawlessly.

Just for the heck of it I tried a forlorn iPod Nano I found in a drawer (newer than my iPod Classic, but still a number of years old). Restored, assured current firmware and installed some tunes but the Audi MMI didn't even recognize it as a device. Nano Nada. Then again, perhaps Nano Gray required?
