My car does not have a aux port, only the car lighter port. Would I be able to stream music by pluging the TuneLink to the car lighter w/aux cable?

save your money and look for another product besides New Potato - Their products works for only days at a time and then you are stuck with calling, shipping and waiting for replacements - Only to do again in a few weeks. After three replacements, I decided to trash my TuneLink and other reputable firms

No, if you have a iPhone there is a app called tunelink and that you have to download in order for the device and it plays over the radio and turn the Bluetooth on on your phone to connect to the device!

In most cases, the difference between AUX-in and TuneLink Bluetooth-to-AUX-in is going to be unnoticeable. That said, other than the convenience advantages of an automatic wireless connection, in many cases using a direct AUX-IN connection while charging can result in some gnarly engine noise coming through your stereo... Since TuneLink eliminates the ground loop that commonly causes this noise, in this case, yes, the Bluetooth connection to AUX-IN will actually sound much better.

Hi C.L.Let me ask you: how do you intend to play music while it's charging? Without an AUX port there is no way to physically connect the phone to the cars speakers. You can certainly use Bluetooth while charging, or play music via the phone speakers, but the audio input pictured here is for connecting via Aux port.This 2-in-1 charger does not have an AM/FM transmitter which would allow you to play music over a radio frequency on your radio, and this is what you may need if you have no physical connection port or Bluetooth connectivity.

It all depends on your car. I would more than likely that you will need the aux cable also. Definitely something you would have to buy and try to see what works best.

Yeah you can, just go to your Bluetooth settings and it should be an option to change it. But I recommend you get the gogroove Bluetooth audio aux receiver, its way better for the car. I made the switch!

You can definitely use an aux cable to play music. But I am not sure whether the usb stick works?

Well in my case, when I leave my stereo on too high, there tend to be a static sound going on but I don't know how the cable is with any other aux port on cars or stereo. And also I just use my aux cable for my mustang but I hope this works dude.

Yes, hook it up using either Aux or a line input. Play everything through it.

The make of the car is irrelevant. Your stereo or amp needs to have an RCA input. Any input really using adapters from the RCA plugs. Think of the Bluetooth dongle as a generic audio source. you need to have someway to connect it to your stereo or amp, and a way to select it, if applicable. I run mine straight into the amp. It has moderate bluetooth strength. I am able to pickup a signal through a thin firewall but not much more. FYI.

No it cannot. It is only used to plug into your phone/mp3 player and essentially turns your music device into its own radio station. You set it to an unoccupied station and then tune your car radio to that same station and it will play the songs that you choose to play off your music device.

No..you need a male to male aux cable in order to hear the sound in your car.

If you plug in the 'dongle' thing to the side, you should be able to turn on the FM mod and use it in the car.It uses that as an 'antenna' to broadcast to your FM radio.

ya it's great!! i can plug the charger into the cigarette lighter and it'll charge while listening to it through my fantastic stereo. you'll need an extra wire that you plug into the player's headphone plug and plug the other into the aux. plug in on the stereo.

How it works is the device shows radio stations once it's plugged into your cigarette lighter in the car. You don't need to push aux to hear your music you just have to change your cats radio station to match what the iTrip is showing. If it doesn't sound too good tel then tweak it to different stations til you like it. No auxiliary button needed. For the first week it was alittle crappie but now it works like a charm. A friend of mine bought the exact same one but spent $40 for it at a department store & it NEVER worked! ! ! Sooo good luck!

I'm pretty sure you need a radio. I think you either have to use the auxiliary port on the radio or tune it through a certain radio station if you don't have a port.

I don't see why not. My car has the aux jack (3.5mm) and a usb port. I play music from a thumb drive and any power that is needed is supplied by the car's battery. The only reason I know it would not work is due to bit rate, but this can be worked around in windows media player (lower the bit rate)

Yeah you can play music using your cars speakers, that's how I use it because my car doesn't have the axu input. It brings a aux plug it's just that's it's short so you might want to buy a longer one but it's great it works fine I have bought 3 of these for different vehicles and it works great on all 3.
