    So After my 08 got totaled, I got a 2010. It is a trim package 5 and has leather, heated seats, nav, etc. I connected my phone and imported contacts, however when I paired my phone as a Bluetooth media device, It seemed to unpair the phone. In my previous model I had to run a Bluetooth receiver into the AUX input, but was hoping I would not need to do that here. Can the car Bluetooth to my phone for both phone and media, or is this not an option?

    Thanks in advance, I searched with no luck

    In my 2011 trim 3, which might or might not be different, I pair my LG phone and an iPod Nano with no troubles. Maybe it's a phone thing where you might not be able to do both at once.

    I have a feeling Its cause I gave both the same PIN and that may be the issue. Just wondering if it was possible, Sounds like so, Thanks

    I think this maybe the phone !!! a blue tooth device need only one connection and tells the other the capabilities shouldn't be different pairing for phone and another for music

    I had a 2010 and now a 2012 in both case my phone connnects and can make phone calls and play music (chaning the audio to bluetooth)... no different pairing required.
