Ipod dock has stopped working (for tune2air)

[Tinorus]

Hey everyone, my tune2air is still working I've tested it on a ipod bluetooth speaker and there's no issues but my audi ipod dock does not work anymore, not even with my ipod touch.. I have already tried taking the dock out and plugging it back in but that didn't work. I'm not seeing anyone else with this problem online, maybe the dock is broken?

Mine broke. The connector itself has some pins separate on the pcb and I worked very intermittently. I just bought a used dock on eBay for $50 and it's worked perfectly ever since.

I initially bought a new dock connector and planned to resolder it but I never got around to it because learning to solder by doing super tiny pins like that would have been a bad idea and a used dock was cheap.

There's an adapter for where the ipod dock is plugged in isn't there?
I'm thinking I could just buy an aux cable adapter if there is such thing and plug that in and wire it through the non-working ipod dock to keep a clean setup then sell the tune2air for about 60..?
My friend has one for his a4 but he's not sure what it's called
