The dealer has changed the BMW adapter board too, but to no avail.
I can change modes on the head unit but cannot control the iPod. The only way I can regain control of the iPod is to use a reset (Ipod's own 'Menu' plus 'Select' buttons until the Apple logo reappears).
I wonder if there's a more subtle problem here?

There could be a couple of reasons this is happening:
1) The battery cables or Radio fuses were not pulled during installation.
2) There is a communication error between the iPod and ice>Link. This happens sometimes from disconnecting the iPod from the computer without "ejecting" it beforehand. A simple reset of the iPod should fix things.
Hope this helps!
