A 2 parter: Will this work in the 2011 Kia Optima? Does it support the iPod Classic gen 7?

It should work in a 2011 Optima. We have an 09 Elantra Touring and a 12 Optima and the cables (not this specific cable) are the same for both vehicles. So if this works in an 09 Elantra Touring as stated, it should also work in the Optima

Regretfully, I don't think so. Nissan blames Apple and Apple blames Nissan. From what I can gather online, one of the iPod updates made the iPod incompatible with the Nissan radio, and in my car there is no other way to connect the iPod. Imagine that, a nice car with a million features and I can't use an MP3 player in it! Although...you may luck out. If your car does not have GPS it may have a regular old Aux input jack with the same connector headphones have. Good luck!

It works with all Ipods and I phones with previous connector. It work also with the newest IPods and IPhones if you add the interphase addapter. My experience is in a 2011 VW Tiguan

This item works with ipod classic, however I would not recommend buying it. It does not have a strong enough FM signal to transmit over the top of any FM station (even the ones with no station on the frequency) so it always sounds terrible. Don't waste your money, go to a car audio store and have them hard wire your ipod into your factory radio for the same amount of money and have a crystal clear connection.

Wish I could help you, I could not get it to work on my iPod 5th Gen or my Samsung tablet. Car. SC. did not respond until I complained. My suggestion would be to call the company and ask.

I'll give that a shot. I've noticed that they only claim to support the 5th gen and newer Nano, as well as the iPhone/iTouch. I was using a 4th gen Nano and an old classic (at that time just called the iPod). Now I have a 5th gen Nano, and it seems to work? I'll report back after more testing.

It worked with the classic model that I had, but when I purchased the 4th Generation ipod, I started having problems with it. It does not play the music through the speakers, it will however, charge the ipod.

I drive a 2011 Honda CR-V and so far haven't been able to find a model that will work in it. I have the 5th generation Shuffle and when I tried to plug it in was told that my vehicle didn't support the format. I know this hasn't been much help as I'm not sure what year model car you drive. I'm assuming that my car would need a much older model iPod since none of the three MP3 players I've tried have worked. I hope you find something that works for you!

I have an 05 gx, if there isn't a sat button in the car, the aux cable part works great as well as the iPod part, but the xm part does not work for me, and iv used the xm part and and the one you get with the isimple kit, neither worked

I have this unit. I have an ipod gen 7 and an ipod nano gen 5, 30 pin. My 30 pin nano fits this unit . I bought an adapter plug from Apple,so I can connect the ipod gen 7 . I can play both ipods on this unit. If you buy an Audio/video selector switch at Radio Shack. You can hook up your T.V.,Stereo, CD player etc. You need cables for this. Radio Shack can help with these.

I'm glad you asked. Just traded our 2011 sonata in for the 2013 model. Typically the same design with a few added features. The one difference I noticed was this same Ipod adapter that I used in the 2011 which worked flawlessly, Didn't work the same in the 2013. As a matter of fact, I just went to my local Hyundai dealer yesterday and They couldn't figure it out after trying it in other vehicles on their lot. Not sure if because it's after market (made in china) or just design change in Hyundai's electronics systems. I'll tell you this, after leaving the Hyundai dealer somewhat frustrated, I found that Any Ipod usb only adapter works just fine. Only difference I found is to change to different playlist, You have to go to your menu button and select search, then scroll to your desired playlist. In the 2011 I once owned, I was able to do that from steering wheel controls. Hope this is helpful. Good Luck!

I do not know if the Belkin TuneTalk Stereo will work for the Ipod Classic 7G. I bought the Belkin for my Ipod Classic 160GB and it works great!!! I suggest you call Belkin in Los Angeles, CA at (310) 898-1100 and tell them which type Ipod you have and ask them which Belkin TuneTalk Stereo will work with that Ipod.

Yes, if you have an auxiliary input, the goliton will work just fine. I use it on a 335i and it works with my iPod. No complaints with it. Only can lower or increase volume, but that's OK with me. Enjoy...

Hi Vivian, Yes it is most definitely complatible with the iPod Classic! I only have the iPod 160GB Classic, in fact I have 3 of them, love my music!! HaHa Have a Monster iCarPlay Wireless in each car, that way I never get caught out. Enjoy.

No it does not...the standard 30 pin usb Apple cable will connect, at least for me...but it can only play completely random songs off of your ipod. Folders, albums, playlists do not exist. I have also had trouble with this cord charging. I would pay the extra for the Kia cable.
