CarPlay and USB Media through USB hub in 2018 TourX?

Cool. Could you check back in and let us know if it works properly or not? I'm looking into this part too.
Yup, will do it next week.

Everything works. I had my 64 gb flash drive with MP3 and my phone connected at the same time. Both were working. I would say this is kind of must have upgrade.

Got the part in and installed. Both USB ports work as charging and media transfer. The aux port doesn't appear to register in the infotainment. I have a fully loaded 2018 essence with red needles and an early early early build date of 10/17 (I think). Two out of three ain't bad, though I'd like to have the aux for podcasts on the phone and the USB port as dedicated music storage.

I got so excited, didn't even try AUX. Going to try it today.

So, confirming that it works. As soon, as I plug the AUX cable, I can scroll through Media and it is there. Played music from my MP3 and my phone.

Okay, so your use of the word "scroll" clued me in to my idiocy. I assumed there would be a pop-up alerting me to the aux connection (I don't know why) but you actually just touch the media icon again to scroll through your connections. It's there and it works. Thanks.

Good deal. I'm glad I could help. Yeah, you would think, infotainment would act like a computer and identify newly connected device(like it does with bluetooth, for instance).
