Ipod Classic or Ipod Touch for 2013 E350

Hi all!

So, I have a new 2013 E350 and I would like to make use of the Ipod integration cable in the center console. I have a really old Ipod and an Iphone 4s. The Iphone 4s works when I plug it in, but for whatever reason the Ipod does not. (I have a 2011 Range Rover Sport Supercharged and the Ipod DOES work in it)

Could it be that my Ipod is just too old for the E350 even though it works in the Range Rover?

I'm considering buying the newest version of the Ipod Classic (160gb) or an Ipod Touch 4th generation (32gb). I'd prefer the new Ipod Classic because of its huge memory size but am worried that it may not work..

Does anyone here use the newest Ipod Classic with their E350?

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I use an 80 GB iPod classic that I leave in the car 24/7. No issues. My kids will plug in their iPod touches without issue.

I also use an 80GB iPod classic that I bought just to leave in the console on mine. Works perfectly.

You can stream music using BT Audio, if your Iphone 4s have enough memory space to download your itune music files onto it. without having to buy new Ipod. Also if you have unlimited data on your mobile service...you can play/stream music file in your Itune Cloud storage. ...BT Audio streaming from Cloud storage work with my Samsung Galaxy SII.

Go for the iPod with the larger memory and leave it in the car.
