Why can't I play Pandora??

I just got my 2011 G37 and when I plug my iPhone into the USB port and try to play Pandora, the phone says "no sound available". I know the car doesnt have a separate AUX line so how I can I get Pandora Radio to play from my iPhone?
Thanks!

It wont play Pandora thru the USB port. You can only play your iPod music, or music on a drive. For Pandora, you will have to stream it thru Bluetooth. Does your car have Bluetooth Audio?

Thanks!
Do you know off the top of your head how to set that up? I have my phone set up in bluetooth to make phone calls--is there something additional I need to do?

Sorry, no. This only applies to the '10+ models with Bluetooth Audio.
