I have an iphone5 and am looking for a solution to stream bluetooth audio in my 2009 c350 sport. Will this work with the iphone5 for this?

Thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately this item will not be the solution you're looking for. Mercedes has not developed support for the iPhone 5 in any vehicles produced prior to model year 2013.

this thing does not work as well as it should, it's basically a bandaid. I suggest buying a new 2014 MB like I did to remedy this as the interface in the new vehicles works amazing and I have not been happier. Hope that helps and it's being very honest.

Go to crutchfield.com, type in the stereo model and see if the unit will fit into your car. It will most likely work with the iphone, you'll have to connect it to your receiver with the USB 2.0 adapter that came with the iphone. As for having full control of the iPhone, the receiver is setup in a way that only allows the HU to control the iphone. you won't be able to control it using the iphone, you'll have to use the HU instead. And i got it professionally installed, took a little over an hour and cost 97 bucks. Unless you really know what you're doing, i'd get it installed by a pro.

I'm using iOS 8 on an iPhone 6 plus streaming to my 2009 Audi S5. You should be good to go

Yes it works with the IPhone 5. It uses Airplay through your wireless network. If you have the latest OS you should be fine.

I went to the JBL website and looked up this dock. The info on it dated back to 2009 (product info/owners manual) before the iphone5 came out. So the question is whether the iPhone5 has the same gizmo at the bottom to dock with anything the earlier versions could dock with.

Hey, I'd email their support team here- support@hirestech.com They got back with me within a few minutes. I asked the same thing about the iphone 5 because the hr II has a funky usb type. The first part of their response may be relevant to you- "There was never any intention of paring a Music Streamer II with an iPhone, our recommendation would be either the iStreamer or the microStreamer (both current models). That said, it is possible to accomplish but not an ideal solution. Here would be the signal chain of such a system: iPhone -&gt; Apple Lightning to USB A Cable -&gt; self powered USB 2.0 hub -&gt; USB A to USB B cable -&gt; Music Streamer II"

This will work and pretty well I would say. I conect my iPod touch(for music)and my android phone when calls come in it pauses the music. It works better than the Alpine BT car receiver that took me hours to install. This rought only takes seconds and sound quality is far supereor to the Alpine I installed and no need to drill holes in your car.

Question to Brad, how did you do this? I also have an 2010 Audi A4 with an MMI cable, used my IPhone 4 for listening to music but now i got a IPhone 6 and want to use a Bluetooth Adapter but it does not work?Any tips? Thanks for your answer.

I use the Bluetooth feature all the time. It works seamlessly with my iPhone. Just pair your phone with the receiver once, then whenever you want to listen to audio from your iPhone change the source to Bluetooth. Works for any audio your iPhone plays: music, audio books, audio from videos. Also it works pretty well for phone calls.

The Bluetooth connection works with an iPhone 5, but the dock connector does not -- that's the pre-5 30-pin connector. So, you can use it as an external speaker for a 5, but that's it.

I don't know. This was meant for BMW's that have the GPS and the extended Aux controller in the graphics of the BMW. This is needed for car control of the iPhone. I have an I phone 5 and needed another Apple adaptor for this work. But If you use the iphone directly and can play audio via the Audio Aux port it may work with no control. So you will need to have the USB and the Audio port close together. Good luck

The head unit I bought uses Bluetooth to connect. So I didn't need it. You will have use an adapter for iPhone 5 to work with this. Audio only

No you will have use a USB cord and cut off wall adapter and rewire it. I did it and it works great. Turns off when car turns off and on when starting. Pairs every time and sound is exceptional. Had other bluetooth streaming adapters and this one sounds and works the best!!

Bluetooth pairing is very hard to troubleshoot. It could be something with your phone or settings. I do know that another brand that looked similar that was a blue OBD2 port worked with my wife's CX9, but wouldn't work with my Jeep Cherokee, so I researched more and found this one works better for some peoples cars and when I got this one it worked.

Yes, it will work along side your car's built-in Bluetooth. The way that I found that will allow both to work 100% of the time is to first turn on the car (so that it's Bluetooth is in the seek mode), then immediately turns on your phone's Bluetooth. Wait a few seconds or until the connection is made (which shows up on my car's display), then turn on the Mpow Bluetooth. It will then connect to your phone also. You can verify that by going to your phone's Bluetooth setting. Both should show as "connected." Then you can listen to music/podcasts, but when a call comes in, it will automatically switches to the car's Bluetooth to handle the call, while pausing your music playback. When the call is over, it will automatically switch back to your music/podcast. I have a Toyota and an HTC One phone. Your mileage may vary.

Yes, I purchased this exact model off of Amazon a few months ago and I have an Iphone5 and it works perfectly fine. You can skip the song right on the dash kit or on your IPhone%.

Just the sound not the video if your cars receiver has female 3.5 mm connection. You would have to have a cable that hooks to the dock output of the ipad or usb.
