I have a 2010 bocanegra that doesn't have the bluetooth option with it but does have the usb port.

Will it still work if I order a cable?

cheers

Do you have the combined USB port (CUP) where you have a USB port and Aux port side by side? If so then yes a BMW Mini cable will work like a charm.

The AUX port is under the dash and the USB is just next to it facing left.... if you understand what I mean

Yep BMW cable yourself up and enjoy full iPod control. Has anyone worked out how to put it on shuffle yet? I have a 5g Touch.

Press the Mix button

So it will bring all the tracks up on the head unit?

cheers guys :)

Yep full track names on the headunit, plus the ability to browse tracks by album, artist, playlist etc.

Though scrolling takes forever :( I just use playlists because it would take forever to scroll to a particular artist/album in the 3 line display.

I've finally managed to find a breaker who has the USB/AUX control module, wiring and plastic surround.

Has anyone managed to fit one and if so will it be recognised by the HU or will I have to take a ride over to the dealership to have the settings enabled?

I'm fairly sure this was a dealer fit option so in theory it should just be a plug and play job.

I use my nokia luma phone as my music player, for some strnge reason when i tried connecting it up via the phone jack it came out all tinney (you could hear the music but it was like playing it under water). Had a breif work with the dealer, they said they had a simular problem with anther customer and found it was the cabble. Any one got a cable for use with the head phone jacks thats works?

Have you tried connecting your via USB then using the HU to browse? Works well with my HTC One S, file access is quick and sounds is good.
