iPod classic, Windows 8, problem with itunes
Hello C^2,
I'm sorry to hear you are having this issue with your iPod classic. If you continue to have audio issues when only connected to your car stereo, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following articles helpful, depending on how you have it connected (the second article is aimed at iOS devices, but the section on USB connections can also apply to iPod classics). In particular, you may want to double check all connections, and/or try it with a different cable if possible:
Connecting iPod to your home or car stereo auxiliary input using the headphone jack - Apple Support
Get help connecting your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with your car stereo - Apple Support
Regards
playback is mono
