Question: What will the BMW's audio system display when playing a song?

Answer: Just like a CD Changer, the BMW audio system's interface will display the track number. It will not display the name of the artist, song title, or album title of the song that is currently playing

you unplug your cd changer and plug the dice in. run the ipod cable to where you want your Ipod stored.

search the electronic forums.
