I currently have a car (2008 Jeep Compass) that has aux but no Bluetooth compatibility. Does any body have any suggestions on a good transmitter. Hoping for one that has autocratic connection.
What’s wrong with the aux? I would just use that. FM transmitters are so annoying and a true last resort. Even cassette/aux adapters are better. My previous 2006 Malibu didn’t have an aux OR cassette so I was stuck with a transmitter to play my music. Constantly fighting to find the right channel, constant static, etc. So grateful for Apple CarPlay in my new car
Any roav ones on Amazon work great. I've tried others but they all get static regularly.

No aux or Bluetooth in my car. Is there any way other than a FM transmitter to play my phone's music?
What is the best Bluetooth transmitter for a car ?

all 3 are valid options. I do think this is a personal preference sort of decision.
ask yourself what device(s) you want to connect. ask yourself how much you want to spend.
if looking to save $ and assuming your head unit aux in is a 1/8" trs (had phone jack), and assuming your drive has the same, this is a very easy cheap option.
if $ is not an issue or you don't have a device with any out put connector or you mention blutooth and want arguably the most convenient option, the switching out the head unit is the way to go...
in this day and age I think the FM transmitter is an antiquated and least convenient method.
not sure anyone could give u an answer here... just their own opinions.
So, tried 2 of the three - FM transmitter works fine until you get to an area that is using the frequency you chose. Did look at aux-in adaptor but decided to replace unit. Fitting one is easier now as the car will have a manufacturer fitted plug (in 2005 most cars had them...) and you can order the adaptor (and the plastic surround for fitting) for your car and the unit you choose so it is really plug and play.
