    It occurs to me that perhaps one of our members who works at a dealership might be able to access the Service Bulletin that describes the new radio firmware (08-004-17) and that the bulletin might tell us what they've changed?

    I have the 3.6 engine.  Purolator only makes a classic model for my car.  Was considering WIX or NAPA GOLD (might be the same).  So confusing...

    I do have the 3.6.  Wish I could get a Pourolator PureOne for it, but they don't make them.  sigh

    Thanks JKeaton.  I saw that one, but a while back, I had heard that the PureOne was a better material than classic.  Not sure if with full synthetic, the Classic may have issues.

    Good Morning All,
     
    Not looking to start a war, but wanted some advice.  I have used Purolator PureOne filters in my Dodge Intrepid and Grand Caravan for years.  Now that I traded the Intrepid for the Journey, they don't make a PureOne filter for the Journey.  I know that the PureOne had better filtering materials.  Can anyone recommend a substitute?  I'm full synthetic oil btw.
     
    Thanks,

    Dealership ordered me a new unit (under warranty), but when I hit a bump, the door locks click. Is there a particular side I should pry up? Is there a service diagram someplace I can refer to? Thanks.

    Hi Lobitz,
    Formatted Fat32. When in folders, it only pulls in ~1250 songs. When mp3's are put in the root folder, all are pulled, but are not organized.

    jkeaton, i figure if I got the capability and 3500 songs, I might as well use it, right?
    :-)

    Greetings All!
    Just joined the site and just got my 2015 Journey SXT last Wednesday. Got it all setup, but I have a question - I was having issues with ipod voice control last night and uconnect support recommended upgrading the radio software. I did for my RE2 radio software last night and since then, my ipod will only let me listen to playlists. I can no longer filter via artist, album, genre, etc via the screen. When I called uconnect, I got multiple stories about potential patches, then there is no patch pending, and ipod is not supported because it is a plug and play device. (I call BS on that one). They recommended using the ipod's voice control via pushing its button when i wanted it. Ummmmm, kind of defeats the purpose of radio integration, right?
    So they then recommended putting music on an SD Card or USB Drive.
    SD Card
    I got a 32GB class 10 SD Card for 5 bucks and threw my music on there (~3500 songs). I had to put all songs into the root directory with no folders. After 15 minutes in the slot, everything was loaded and I can filter on metadata tags via button, but apparently, the SD Card use does not have voice control.
    USB Stick
    So I made a copy of the SD card on a blank 32GB USB stick and plugged it into the usb port, but after 15-20 minutes, there was still no ability to filter or search. Is the usb port that much slower than SD? Any suggestions on this? I like the car, but this is downright frustrating. How should I be structuring the folders/files to make the metadata work so I can voice search on songs and artists?
    Thanks very much,
    Joe
