iPod Adaptor on 2007 A3 with Satellite?
 
I apologize in advance if this has specifically been covered before (I fear it may have but did a search and could find nothing!). I have a 2007 A3 with the Bose upgrade and Satellite radio. According to Dice Electronics their iPod adaptor now works with Satellite. It hadn't before as the Satellite unit used the last available input but now they have a "splitter" of some kind. Has anyone with the Bose and Satellite done this yet? I believe Audi's unit does not wotk with Satellite. Any other options besides Dice anyone knows about?

TIA!

I'd like to know too!
 
yes the Audi unit will not support sat radio + iPod. I bought one and then returned it.

just spoke with my "Techie" guy and he THINKS...
 
that since my Bose has the CD chnager in the dash I will be able to keep both. That is, not an additional input needed. I am going in on Monday to have the job done so we shall see.

yeap, it works with i-Audi-T2
 
i had the same setup; bose, sirius and i-Audi-T2.
they work fine together...

IIRC, you have to move 3 wires from the DICE connector into the factory connector
 
in order to keep your satellite radio. The satellite receiver has an audio pass-thru for the external CD changer (which is what the DICE connects as) and you have wire the DICE into the circuit.

Be sure when you order to specify that you have a 2007 that wasn't prewired for the glovebox changer.

Let me know how this goes...
 
I have the same setup...dying to know if this works.

'07 doesn't come with the glove boox changer cable for the i-Audi-T2. Not as simple as the '06.

sorry for the wrong info, i didnt know 07 did not come with the glove box cable..

which unit?..Dice or Audi?..you have CD, Satellite and iPod?

Nealcp 02-22-2007 04:15 PM

according to what he tells me I have to choose to lose the CD chnager...
 
when we install the iPod adaptor but with the Audi factory adaptor he said I should be able to see playlists, etc. in my head unit and control from the unit or my steering wheel. I guess since most of my CD music is on my iPod now anyway I should be OK. and i mostly DL music rather than buy CDs anyway!
