ipod freezes/disconnected at times

Ok so its been about two weeks since I got my car, 2010 C63. For the first week or so, i didn't have any problem with connectin ipod and listening music from there. But past coule of days, when I play ipod in the car, ipod disconnected for about 10secs for every 5 songs. Have you guys ever experienced this issue with your ipod?
what should I check ? THanks for your help/suggestion in advance.

I haven't experienced this issue. Does your car charge your ipod? What model ipod do you have?

I was having a different problem where songs would skip ahead partway through.

I restored the ipod in itunes and the issue hasn't returned.

Great, after reading this thread my ipod that's been great for six months froze for the first time yesterday. Thanks a lot guys...

But seriously, I just took my car in for a full service and I wonder if they applied a COMAND update that is causing this. This issue has never come up before.

Anybody take your car in for service around the time this began for you?

can't believe many of us having trouble with Ipod connection.
Since I've just received my car, i am kinda reluctant to bring my car in to dealership for this ipod thing, but it IS annoying.
Please keep us posted if anyone finds solutions for this.
