After personally testing, I can confirm that the adapter works for everything except video output/enhanced app mode.

Based on some developer info on the OEM Apple Adapter.

Music will work with the 30 pin adapter or via bluetooth/3.5mm, yes.

It sounds like you don't have constant power going to it. The AVIC's have one wire for constant power and one for ignition/acc power.

It will be the same as the F500/F900/F90 bypass.

It's in the forums, not the blog.

So you would consider driving down the highway at 80mph as "breaking the car"? That shouldn't cause a driveshaft to split in half unless there was an underlining issue with it.

As far as the differential: I really doubt a 200HP V6 Mustang has enough torque to rip apart a differential with only 37k miles unless there was a defect in the gears to begin with. The vehicle was maintained as recommended; full synthetic oil changes every 3k, differential service at 30k, etc, it was not "abused or neglected".

It simply came down to Ford not wanting to repair the vehicle for free and using a generic clause of "not driving normally" to avoid paying for it. I hope you don't have a Ford and find out the hard way.

This is an automotive site, thus anything automotive related is welcome, although yes, the main focus is on Pioneer AVICs'.

"...Ford said, on the record 'if you spin the tires...it's not normal'..."IT'S A MUSTANG!!! If it's not "normal" then why did/do they make it look like so much fun in their TV commercials? Is it a case of "do as I say, not as I do"?

It's difficult to understand Ford's reasoning. I don't think anything Ford says will hold up in court.

This would be better addressed in the forum, not a blog.

That Northgate Lincoln Mercury dealer where it was towed gave me so much BS including trying to blame it on pieces of rubber in the wheel well. They even went as far as (with a Ford Service Rep's help) blacklisting my car's VIN for any drivetrain warranty service at any Ford dealer. I ended up paying to have my car towed out of the dealer from hell to my local Ford dealer. I also ended up paying out of pocket for a new rear-end from newtakeoff.com whom my local dealer installed for $400.

Needless to say I'll be suing Ford and Northgate Lincoln Mercury for $2133 in reimbursement. It's my only course of action for justice at this point.

Who's paying your way? Just curious...

If you must know, I'm paying my own way.
