Is there a way to sync music to my car via USB

My car does not have Bluetooth audio paring only a USB .When previously owning a iPhone 5 I was always able to stream music and charge my phone via USB.Now with my new phone Lumia 1520 I'm no longer able to so any of these things via USB,is there something im doing wrong, a setting that's not enabled or do I have to buy an Adaptor?

You need to unlock your phone and keep it with the start screen open and then connect it to the usb...this will work

So your saying my phone always has to be on in order for it to sync and what about charging.

No not always.but it should be unlocked on the time of connecting to the usb.. Then the screen can be turned off

What are the details of your car system?

Not probably relevant, but I have a 120gb ssd in my cars usb, 2000 albums. Sometimes I take the hdd home and sync my music folders using Goodsync.

NoIm sure it doesnt, but I mean I have put a hdd to the usb in my car. My system supports it, reading directly from the hdd. Felt its much easier than always connect my phone to the car.
