with the USB iPod connection for the Nav models, every time I start the car it defaults to the next available source to the left.. if a CD is in it will go to a CD, otherwise it will go to Sat Radio. Any idea on how to get the USB iPod mode to stay on that mode when I start the car?
I suspect your iPod is powering off. The system moves to the next available source. If you don't have any CDs in it will move to another source. My iPhone doesn't have that problem when I use it but of course, it isn't powering off like an iPod will. Try turning car off and back on within a minute or two while the iPod is still playing and see if you still have same problem.
