Hey, as you can see I'm a newbie to the site, just bought my X-5 about a week ago and love it. Had a question about an iPod hook up that came with the car and for the life of me I can not figure out how to use it. Here is what I know: It's a black iPod cord coming out of the dash by the steering wheel. The CD player was taken out and supposedly that is how you use it but I can't get it to work. I was told to make a playlist on my iPod called BMW1 in all caps and that was suppose to get the stereo to somehow recognize it. Didn't work. That's all I know, so if anyone out there knows anything please advise. If not, thanks anyway. Cheers!
