I have the MM package but for me you change the input under the audio menu just like you would to go to CD. Do you have an audio menu?

Here are some shots... You access these screen with the media knob on the center armrest console.

The first pic shot TWO important items, on the left where the AUX is activated, AND that you should set the "Volume" to BOOST.

The second image is how the radio should look with the AUX input activated.

iPod - set volume at "8" and EQ (equalization) on the iPod on "POP"

Check out this Ipod amplifier link and make sure yours is GERMAN.

Just had to press the DISC button as previous post No. 3 said. Glad your iPod is working, and remember to change iPod setting as per post No. 4.
