Bluetooth frustrations
I am curious to know if anyone else has noticed this or has a fix. I have a 4cyl base model and I am using a iphone 6. I have noticed that in a TLX with tech I can not only stream music to the stereo but my playlist is also imported. When I try this in my base model, I'm still able to stream my music but I can't access my playlist. When I hit enter to select my phone it will not go any further. The only way that my playlist is accessed is if I physically plug the phone in via USB. Has anyone else noticed this or is it specific to my car or phone?

Actually, I haven't been able to stream via bluetooth via the car's controls at all yet (I'm only on week 2, still learning). Pandora works as advertised, but I can start a stream via my phone controls (navigating to music on the phone, pressing play). I do have an Advance model, and I am running an iPhone 6 on the latest iOS software.
Thought this was an iPhone limitation, as the behavior was the same on my previous MyLink system from GM. I'm going to have to play around with it some more.

When I would press the Bluetooth button the "now playing" section would default to the last Youtube video I was watching (happened to be a review of the TLX), until I would navigate to music on the phone. I just rebooted the phone, and after about 3 minutes I had access to all my playlists and the controls worked fine from the car.
So it was either operator error on my part, or the phone just needed a reboot.
I have also cleared out the bluetooth device list in the phone (MyLink was still in there from my old car) and that may have been fouling it up as well.

I actually got it to work last night.

There might be: Between the ELS system and the base system. It would seem kind of silly to restrict the playlist access just because of that, though. Maybe give Acura's national customer line a call.
