Would suggest mass storage so the cars system can view it as an external hard drive, but basically just use the mode that the car system can recognise to view the files on the phone (pc suite would be safest !!) You should also be able to listen to it through bluetooth connection (well at least you can in a ford fiesta with bluetooth and usb )

Good Luck

All you need to do is connect phone via usb then go to settings-connectivity-usb, and whilst connected change phone us b'mode' until the car recognises it, then it will work, normally you don't 'listen to the music through usb (ie you don't use the phones music player) the car media system simply reads the mp3 files like it would on a usb stick (which I would use anyway) so you simply need to find the mode that the cars system recognises the phone's memory card in !

Good Luck
