1. copy music files to an SD card, then upload that info onto the hard drive. you won't be able to upload directly from your iPod. I don't have an iPhone, but if it's the same as an iPod, you should be able to file transfer music onto the computer then copy those onto an SD card. Keep in mind that you will lose playlist info. Album, genre, playlist, and track, are the only preserved info.

2. you can check the version of your NAVI using the MMI. It's in the manual, or you can play around with NAVI and setup to find out your version. Compare that version with what the dealer's offering.

3. can't help you there. there's a thread about cargo liners on this forum if you're interested with that accessory.

Good luck.

The JukeBox program does not allow for uploading from Ipod. I believe it has to do with copyright infringement and Apple. The SD card is the best route.

Your Navigation program should be the same. Any upgrades from Navteq are the same for both Canada and USA.

regards, Patrick
