In cold weather and if you are only doing short journeys, I find the iPod does not get charged enough to work. When I get in the car in the morning when it's cold at this time of year the iPod won't work for a while until the car has warmed a bit and then it will start charging the iPod.

The other thing to try is unplugging the USB out of the car socket and then plugging it back in again.

Also is the wire on your USB cable ok. My iPod has not been working as it should on the last few days. When I checked the iPod in the armrest I noticed that the wire must have been bent at a tight angle and the wires have become exposed. I ordered a new cable off the Net last night so should resolve my problem.

I leave my iPod in the car. It never comes out which is why it loses it's charge when it's really cold. It's only for about 3 or 4 minutes that it won't play then the charge starts to come through and it starts playing.

Mine never comes out either ... just to sync it occasionally.....

Don't you have a longish commute?

Mine's only 6 miles so only short runs in cold weather, not good. This and the cold weather is what I've put it down to. Doesn't happen in warmer weather.

Yes I guess so, short distance but still takes me 40mins-1hr!
