Smile Ipod Again
Hi all,
I'm in Australia: i have a 2004 X5 3.0d. I reeeeeally need some way to integrate the ipod into the controls: and i'm at this stage so desperate i'll be happy to only have volume control through the steering wheel.
My dealer tells me that as i have satnav and CD stacker, there is NO way of making the ipod integration happen. I think this totally sucks: there must be a way of making the ipod a part of the sound system.
ALSO.... is it relatively easy for an auto electrician to disable the speed control override on the in dash TV?
Thanks so much everyone - looking forward to hearing from people that know the machine!

cheers

oops
it seems we can't actually use the Icelink without disengaging the Cd stacker for ever. .... So i guess the dealer is right? seems odd we can't arrange for some sought of splitter system. A shame. Thanks anyway for your help!
best regards

We are working on a splitter/source selector for the devices in the meantime. Stay tuned!

Welcome from another Oz diesel owner. Is your name derived from you being NOT someone to step on?? ( for those that don't know a bindii - pronounced bindieye - is a lovely weed found in Australian lawns that are very small and spiky)
