Discovered my problem with the "Folder List" not showing sometimes. As a safety feature this is disabled when the car is in motion! It pays to read the manual. Thanks to the wife!

Folder thing is software. You have to put the song in "folders" to make it work.

Nah, I have each album in a seperate folder. As an example:

Foo Fighters - Echo's Silence Patience & Grace

Foo Fighters - The Colour And The Shape

Powderfinger - Internationalist

Each disc has a folder for each album with the corresponding MP3's in each folder. Some times when I press the button to display the Audio Player the Folder List button is greyed out and other times it is available. This occurs on multiple CD's. I can still navigate up/down the folders. Anyone else get this?

Well I just received my Silver Pearl Grande on Thursday complete with Side Steps, mudflaps, cargo barrier, boot liner, mats, lens protectors and Nudge Bar.

So far so good. I haven't seen many Klugers (4 in total) on the roads, and I have been looking keenly since placing my order (2 months ago). When we did order only our colour had an approx delivery date of end of Nov so there must be a definate shortage. I know our Harris Freer dealer actually sold their demo vehicles due to pressure with delivery dates. Couldn't quite understand how you could expect to sell more Klugers with no demo vehicles and no brochures but the sales rep didn't seem worried.

There are some questions I too would like answered with the Grande if any of you can:

- Is there a hack to play DVD's through the SatNav on the dash

- Can you play sound from the overhead DVD via the car sound system (dealer said yes but it would appear a fat NO)

- Does anyone else have problems with "Folder List" button greying out with MP3 CD's with albums sorted in folders (sometimes it works, sometimes it's greyed out and this happens with multiple CD's! Wonder if it is a Hardware, Software of Media bug).

Other than that pretty happy. Just a shame they didn't do ipod compatibility and that the satnav is so crappy. I don't like the top down always north facing map display. Would be nice to have 3D maps like TomTom as well as using the GPS for speed and other stuff.

Hi Fellow Kluger Owners,

One of the glaring omissions from the Australian version of the 2008 Toyota Highlander Limited (Kluger Grande), in my opinion, is an iPod interface, which incidentally, is available to Canadian owners as an option. Let's not mention other omissions such as TPMS, Garage Door Remote and 9 Speaker JBL System, etc.,etc!

I am currently discussing the possibility of importing an iPod interface into Australia from the US following confirmation from the manufacturer the unit in question will suit our vehicles. This unit, unlike the factory unit, allows complete control of your iPod through the audio systems controls. I.e.: You will be able to browse Artists and Albums rather than simply select a Playlist. I hope to have a unit here to test in the coming weeks.

In order to reduce the cost of shipping I'm seeking other potentially interested parties. The more units we purchase, the cheaper the price per unit. If you think this is something you may be interested in, please send me a message.

Cheers

I am another Kluger owner who would also be VERY interested in this particular feature (if cost permitting) and functional.
