Songs play from the Directory\ipod control\music\ff01\wd25

It will show the normal song title while playing but goes back and forth between that and wd25.

Do I need to order the BMW cable or is their a way for this to work with my current IPOD cable?

Thanks.
If you ordered the iPod adapter, the Y cable should be part of the package. You don't need to pay for it. It connects at one end to the iPod and at the other end there is a USB jack and a standard 3mm audio both of which need to be plugged into the center compartment before you can use your iPod as if it were an integrated CD or internal source.
