I mean, it's not that I need to use the bluetooth function, but just want to get them working.... For my day to day music, I connect the media-in kit to a 320GB hard drive, and control & browse the music from the RCD 310. Just curious why it doesn't work with my iphone.
Cool. The RCD310 is using the BT kit's BT - that's interesting to know. That's the integration though, the RCD310 doesn't have BT natively. Your phone is paired with the kit, not the RCD310.

What happens is when you set the RCD310 to Bluetooth Audio on, it switches into "phone" mode full-time. So whatever audio your phone is outputting will come through it. If you play a game with audio it will come through, the media player on the phone will come through, etc.

What's interesting is that my iPhone (3G, 3.0) will also do exactly that. My BT (Fiscon) has A2DP which I can manually activate from the head unit or the MFD, but I don't bother cos the sound isn't good enuf. But if my iPhone makes a sound it gets pushed through the stereo regardless (ipod, games with sound, calendar alerts).
