Will it let you access Siri from the steering wheel control?

I doubt it, I've only used the iPod interface so far and I have both steering wheel and on screen controls in my vehicle. The only thing that works correctly is the volume button. Every time I turn off the car I need to disconnect my iPod and reconnect it, to get it working back to where it was when I turned the car off. The installer I used told me these only work about 25% of the time, and rarely work as advertised. He was spot on with mine, it works to get sound out, but that's about it. I would look at other options, the only reason I didn't return this is that I paid to have it installed.

No. I have a 2003 mini with the harmon kardon system. The left wheel controls will move up and down through a playlist or tracks in an app or Pandora or Apple radio. It does control the volumn. The phone calls do not play through the car audio system. I also had to buy an adapter for the 30 pin to lightning plug so budget some bucks for that. It does function as advertised otherwise. Defiinitly plug and play, routing the cables and hiding the control box the only challenge. Good Luck!

No. My truck doesnt have steering wheel controls and bluetooth works fine without it. I cannot speak to any detail about steering wheel controls or connections.

You can't click a button and turn Siri on no. When Siri is activated you can use the microphone from the headphones to talk with her

No it does not, a double click pauses the music, and brings it back again. How ever no Siri control.

It sure does work with factory steering wheel controls. You will have set it up in settings menu. It also is compatible with Bluetooth . You can link your phone to the radio system.

If by "automatic pilot buttons" you are referring to cruise control buttons, then no. This interface is for steering wheels with radio control buttons such as volume, etc.

you can switch tracks thru the device but haven't been able to get siri up and running. She's a pain in the ass anyway. Not real easy to use on a helmet but doable. Buttons could be bigger and easier to use

Unfortunately, I did not try with Siri. I'm using an Apple Nano 6th generation.

Honestly I'm not sure yet. I just received this unit last week and haven't had a chance to install it yet. They claim that the steering wheel controls will work but you have to manually set them up through the start-up menu. I'll keep you posted as soon as I have completed the installation.

My husband hooked this unit up according to the instructions provided and all my steering wheel controls work just fine. Based on the radio/cd car unit I purchased, I do not have the option where you can set the volume to go up or down according to how fast I am driving. Hope this helps

It works great with Siri!! It's one of my favorite features of the phone. When I'm driving I just push the top button and it activates Siri. I say "Call Joe Smith" and it calls Joe Smith. If I get a text, push the button say "Read Text Message" and they're read, giving you the option to speak your reply. I can also push the button and say "Where's the closest Dunkin Donuts (not that eat them LOL) and Siri will find it and ask me if I would like to call it or get directions. It really helps keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel.

Voice command doesn't work for me. There is no option for it in the steering wheel setup

You can't use Siri with this device. I too was confused in the same way by the poor product description on this page. I emailed the company and they said this model is not compatible with Siri, you have to get the older 5 button model for that.

Uh, I would say yes...I have it on my car with the steering wheel controls, the issue was that I needed to buy an extra adapter and program it...you may have to do that as well.

If you mean voice directional prompts and turn-by-turn directions, yes , it does. You have options for a female or a male voice. But if you are asking if you can get directions using your voice like Siri in iPhone, it doesn't.
