But do i have to do this each time the stereo has been turned off.?

Can you read me the numbers on the bottom of your module, just beneath the barcode?

Is it the DL-0308 number you are refferring too.?

Or the I-BMW-T/5V..?

Also, quite often when the car has been switched off for a while, i get the deattached message..

Then i need to deattach, and reattach the ipod for it to start working..


Im waiting for a replacement, so hopefully this will fix it..

Do you have photo of waht the text should look like on a 4:3 monitor..?

Are you leaving the iPod attached to the DICE while the vehicle is stored overnight? If so - this is a result of the iPod going to sleep and cutting off communication to the DICE.

I do..

I thought that would be okey.

What about the mp3 tag text.?

Am i supposed to choose cd 06 track 02 each time i start the system up.?

question attached to the above by ekvals

what is the best option for a x3 as regards text display ?

is it option 3 and do you have to input disc 6 track 3 each time you enter the car

The modules are preprogrammed for Professional/Business CD. If equipped with SatNav, use the CD6/TRACK6 setting.

It shouldn't be forgetting the settings. Are you pressing CD1 to exit text mode after text is programmed?

[ekvals]

I do..

I select disk 6 track 02.

Then i go to cd 01 to switch songs..

When i leave the car and come back, i have to choose cd 6 track 2 to get the tag again..

Should'nt it be like this.?
