Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me. I currently have a 68 plate m140i with entrynav2 and an upgraded 8.8' display. It works fantastic and is 90% like pro nav.

However, i have got the itch for CarPlay and believe it is only possible with a HU that has the wifi port. I have checked and mine does not therefore i presume CarPlay is not able to be coded?

I am wondering, if i were to purchase a HU with the wifi port (Magneti Marelli / Alpine) how simple is it to set up? Plug and play (with some coding)? Also will i retain all of my cars service history that shows in idrive, as well as all the connected drive subscriptions i have? Navigation etc? Basically everything the same?

If anyone is able to give me some more info/costs that would be great!

Here are some pics of my head-unit and one i have seen for sale. Even though mine is MM and the one for sale is Alpine (and from an F30) does it matter?

Cheers, Joe
