Annoying lack of information on driver display and head unit

HELP !!!

Is there something that I need to turn 'on' somewhere that allows me to see what Radio Station etc is being listened to while viewing the Navigation screen ?

Surely a car of +£80k new doesnt really require me to go to the Home Screen menu, then Audio/Video and see what is on before i then have to press the Navigation button ?!

Also - once a phone call is finsihed, why doesnt the screen retrun to what was being viewed previously

I am amazed if this is 'right' so fear its probably user error or Talent failure on my behalf - please help.

Thanks

Thank you - I cant believe how basic that requirement is and that its not on such a 'luxury' car...

Sooo frustrating when everything else is just amazing...apart from trying to get music playing from my iphone 5s and iphone 6 via AUX....
How ?!?!

Under the armrest is a dedicated iPod plug... Thats how sir, though you will need an adapter as the period lead would not be the lightning lead Thumbs Up

Thanks for the reply. Yep I have the phone plugged in to USB which obviously just charges it, so I need an Ipod (classic) lead to iphone 5/6 lead and then jobs a good 'un ?

The technology in them is shocking and I think the sat nav is nothing short of antiquated - my wife's Passat has a much better technology set up - thank goodness it makes up for it in other ways Thumbs Up
