Since upgradeing to Itunes 7.0.1 and Ipod firmware 1.2 i've had problems with my Ipod 60GB video working with my X5 2006 model with BMW ipod adapter. The ipod adapter is a slim long unit which sits inside a black foam sleeve.

Problem is when I get back to the car and switch on the stereo, when I finish a phone call and the system switches back to the Ipod, or if I scroll from the radio, CD to the ipod. The ipod plays a few seconds of a track over and over with the pause and play icon alternating. Skipping forward a track or selecting another playlist seems to sort things out.

I found some info on the apple site and other BMW owners are having the same problem see link below.

I ended up installing the older apple installer and restored my ipod to version 1.1.2. I then told itunes 7 to not install to 1.2.

I used the download hidden away at the bottom right of this page

Hope this helps other ipod-ophiles.
