Just bought a fully-loaded 2015 QX60. I last had a 2013 Mercedes GLK. In my GLK, when I got a text on the phone connected to the car, I would get a notification on the phone screen in the NAV system.


I've seen references to the QX60 being compatible with SMS texts to a connected phone, but I don't see anywhere on any screen where I could see the texts.


Has anyone successfully received texts on their nav systems? If so, how?


Thanks, Ed

This isn't an option on the JX/QX. Your phone and car need to support Bluetooth AVRCP metadata beyond simple notifications. The JX/QX will display only specific AVRCP information like song details, phone number/Name, etc...

The Lexus GS will display and read email out loud.

I have the new MotoX phone and it will read texts and allow me to voice respond - doesn't go through the QX sound system, but it works really well...

JJRO, does text display on the main vehicle screen?

Why would you want to see texts while in car. Siri will read them to you...get an iPhone. Texting and driving is illegal and dangerous.

Any distraction is dangerous, but it's not illegal to text and drive.
