[Tom G.]

Glad you are back on the road! Let me know if you have any questions on the features.

Hey Tom

Got my replacement module and I have some more questions, and maybe you can direct me in the right way/site.

There's still a little pitch that fluctuates with the revving although it is extremely soft and almost unnoticalbe.

In the iPod mode, Disc 3 'Album' doesn't do anything when I press the forward or reverse tracking button.

That's about it...for now. Thanks again for all of your help

Are there any Playlists set up on the iPod?

The ALBUM feature is for albums on your current playlist. If you set up a playlist with your entire iPod library, you can scan albums within your iPod.

THANKS FOR THE TIP!

Is there an online manual of the Dice? I recall having to stumble upon on, but it may have been the Dice iPod integration. The manual provided with in the kit doesn't really explain some of the features.

The manual included with the kit is what we have, but feel free to give me a call from yorur X5 and we can run down the features in real time for a better explanation.

Hey Tom,

I have yet another problem. In the iPod mode, there are whooshing sounds at regular intervals. Very noticable when the music is low. Also, that high-pitched noise that fluctuates with the revving is still there but barely noticable.

Do I have another defective unit?

How is your trunk interface cable routed and where is the module being placed?

I have the same "whoos" sound problem and I believe it's engine noise. I have the DICE exactly where the IceLink Plus module was, which is to the right side of the gas pedal, behind the center console. I did not have that engine noise with the IceLink Plus and that noise is not present if I switch to regular FM station or put my CD Changer back on.

My whoos are coming through the speakers, so is the high-pitched sound. When I mute the system, there's no more noise. When the volume is up to a normal listening level, you can hear the whoos again.

I'm not sure what a "whoos" noise is, if you can contact me via phone - we'll go over your issue in real time.
