I had an intermittent audio fault a few months later and BMW traced it to the quadlock wiring changes and pins having not been correctly re-inserted by the installer - who of course did not want to know and has long since disappeared so I can't even ask them now.

I guess I'll have to try to get a 'pin out' from BMW and then match it.

I think your new systems just use the wiring for the CD changer rather than the add on plugs etc to the radio module itself. In my install at present the CD changer is still plugged in but does nothing.

Thanks

Richard,

You might be referring to the NAV voice/Bluetooth audio leads (single pair) that go into the 12-pin subconnector of the Dension harness. This will need to be removed and reinserted into the same positions of the stock BMW Quadlock.
