On the Hyundai website it says the cable only works for navigation equipped models. Really???!!! So if I buy this cable for my Sonata GLS it won't work?

@kfobert That's not accurate -- it works with Sonatas that do not have a NAV system.

Thanks for the info bud! Just got the SE model yesterday. I have a video iPod that I know will work once I get the cable (I tried with the standard iPod cable, it was a no go). I also tried connecting my iPhone to the car with the standard iPod cable and it did the SAME THING that your ipod touch did (as far as making the noise over and over). My question is, could I potentially use my iPhone as my music source? And if so, would it charge the phone while playing the music? Thanks!

@LHunt49 You can use your iPhone as the music source, even using Bluetooth! Unfortunately the iPhone exhibits the same static problem in my car.

Thanks for posting this video because I have the same problem as you did but I can just go and get one from the dealership. THANKS!

I used to use my standard white cable with my regular iod & it woked just fine, so, I bought the Ipod touch and same thing happen like with yours, the beeping and no charging, and the radio showed reading device, but, It eventually failed and couldn't use It, so I guess I'll have to buy the cable from the KIA dealership????????

@paul51035 Consider yourself lucky. My best friend bought one this weekend and it won't work with the standard cable.

But the standard iPod USB Cable DOES work with the iPod Touch on the 2012 Hyundai Sonata!!! FYI!!!! Just tried this morning and it had full functionality with standard USB cable that came with my iPod Touch!

For the record, that cable is $20 on Amazon

I was wondering if its possible to change track through bluetooth? For example, saying a command that allows you to change the track or pick an artist? And will it also work on a Elantra? THX

THANKS! I'M GOING BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE CABLE!

@lizahs50 There most be some problem either with your iPhone 4 (it might be empty) or you may want to take your car to your dealership and ask them to take a look. That is in no way normal, I have had my Sonata 2011 since July 2010 and it works perfectly with my iPhone 4, iPod classic and also when I use them with my bluetooth.
