If I get an OEM Audi ipod adapter will I be able to use Pandora app from my Iphone? Or will I be able to use Tomtom app (sound thru speakers)? I know oem adapters lock ipod controls, but what about other stuff? The car is 04 b6 with Symphony II. I already did a research and found a lot of info of aftermarket adapters, but since I can get oem one for free I want to get more info about it

get a dice adapter and you can set it to not lock the phone while its plugged in. I don't think Blitz or OEM have that function.

Thanks for advise, I know Dice can do that, but I am looking for specific info about OEM adapter. I also have read that OEM adapter gives you an option of playing only 100 songs from ipod, like 5 playlists with 20 songs each, is that true?

I just went ahead and tried it out. I t does work with Pandora app and other apps. Hope it will help somebody. It does not charge the iphone, but I have read that Scosche Passport will fix that problem.

To add to info provided, the iPod adapter will not charge the iPhone but will charge iPod. The adapter will play up to 6 playlists. The first six playlists in your library, alphabetically, will be the six played. The number of songs in the playlist is not capped, however, the adapter is only programmed to support 100 random songs and will return to zero and begin its random playing after 100 songs. The only information displayed on the face of the head unit will be CD number (playlist) and track number.

I haven't tried any apps via iPhone. I will have to check it out. Thanks, Moldovanos for posting this up.
