Default PCM Questions........is it broken??

I have a new to me 2011 MY TTS and have questions.

1. Radio: From time to time, I'll have the radio on, stop for gas or something where I turn the ignition off, and then there's no sound from the radio? It's not the mute button. And if I switch to Satellite radio there is sound. All the other radio functions are present and working. I have found no way to get the sound back on other than to park it for a while and come back later. Ideas??

2. Can I Bluetooth my iPhone 6 in as an MP3 player?

3. Where is the microphone for the phone?? I have the iPhone Bluetooth'ed in fine, but the other party can't hear me very well. I'm thinking it may help if I speak into the microphone.

Thanks all, MK

I had similar problem and it turned out to be the advisory setting. This setting if enabled, will cut out FM. It's used in Europe so just disable it via PCM setting on radio. Look for it in setups. FCC mandated nonesense which Trump will remove anyway!

PCM 3.0 doesn't do streaming Bluetooth audio (A2DP) natively. There are gadgets that you can buy to get the same effect though.

Correct, I think that's the advantage of the 2.1 over the 3.0, bc with a dension unit you can stream all day off your phone.
I believe mobridge makes a unit for the 3.0.
