Hi everyone. I’m new to the forum so please be gentle! I’ve just bought a 2014 330d and I’m loving it except no matter what I do, I can’t connect my iPod to the car. It’s an original iPod touch (circa about 2009 I think) and I’ve tried using two different y cables (one from amazon and the other...

Hi I have an Apple iPod Video (5th Generation) wondered best way to connect it. Ideally would like to control it with the Idrive and have the album artwork displayed. I know I can plug it into the Aux but that way still need control it from the iPod. I have seen some older post on this topic...

If there are any CDs in the CD magazine, when I select CD/Multimedia as the audio source in iDrive, I don't seem to be able to see any of the 'songs' that I copied from my iPod nano to the hard-disk in my BMW professional navigation system .

Hi I've just purchased a 2006 330i M-Sport Touring which I am loving, but the iDrive is somewhat of a maze! The car is fitted with an ipod cable in the glove box but I have some problems when trying to scroll through my music. It displays the tracks / playlists / albums per CD 1 /2/3 however...

Quite new to the forum and been lurking about for the past couple of weeks after buying a 2005 325ci M Sport a few weeks ago. Already got a few subtle OEM type mods on the way (will get a project/hello thread up soon....). One thing thats been bugging me is the sound quality of the standard...

Hi All This is my first thread on here and could do with all of your help and advice. I want to connect my iPhone/iPod to my business radio/cassette with cd changer and would like to know the best option and value for money. I have seen ones that sell just the leads or with the dock that fits...

Hi I have a BMW E46 CI 330 year 2005 with SATNAV with single CD (No changer). I want to use my IPOD and wondered if anyone can tell me if this is possible and what I need to buy. Is there an AUX port at the rear of the SAT NAV head unit that could connect to an iPOD lead. Many thanks Terry

Hi There All, The girlfriend has just got a 2009 E90, which has iDrive but no iPod adapter or aux in. I did not like it at first, but it makes my E46 look and feel old and dated !! I have done a quick web search and found the MoBridge adapter, from caraudioexpress. Does anyone have any...

I recently bought an XCarlink iPod/iPhone interface adaptor. I had a couple of problems installing so the supplier sent me out a second unit for free and never requested the original one. It turned out the issue was with my car rather than the unit and so I got my original unit working. So now...
