iPhone Snap-In Adapter
Hi All
Me again fiddling around with the car and iPhone. I have a bunch of options on the car including the adapter under the arm rest for a snap-in adapter and option 6NR which is meant to give me bits of other functionality. I am aware that I should be able to play video content on the screen whilst the car is stationary from the iPhone as well as have a more 'iPod' like look and feel when playing music from the iPhone. My dealer had said this was all possible using the white apple USB cable but I can't seem to access it. Whilst trawling around the internet I came across this document clicky which suggests I need to get the appropriate adapter for the iPhone. My question is 'which adapter' there seem to be a multitude of adapters - basic, music & media and then to further confuse it I have seen mention of various hardware revisions.... Has anyone got any experience of this and can point me to the right adapter - for reference my car spec is below: ZOA Driver Comfort Package 216 Servotronic Steering 507 PDC Rear 544 Cruise ZOD Sun Protection Package 3AP Windscreen Grey Shade Band 420 Sun protection glass ZOF Media Package - Professional Multimedia 609 Pro Nav 612 BMW Assist 616 Assist Online Portal 6NL Enhanced Bluetooth with USB Audio 258 RunFlat 431 Autodimming Mirror 481 Sport Seats 494 Heated Seats 4AD Aluminium Trim 4DL Black Trim Finishers 520 FogLights 521 Auto Wipers & Lights 654 DAB 6NF Telephone USB I/F 6NR Mobile App 6WA Black Panel Display 704 M-Sport Suspension 710 M Steering Wheel 715 M bodykit 760 Exterior Trim Shadowline 775 Anthracite Headlining |

Media Snap-in Adapter
Misanty,
I have just picked up a snap-in media adapter for my iPhone 4S today for my 120d which has ZOF (Professional Media) 609 (Nav System) 6NL (Enhanced Bluetooth) I can't see anything in the options list that would give a higher spec for media as the 6NL has 'telematics' over the 6NK option. I can see all the music on my USB stick, but the iPhone will only play the current album that was played directly on the phone via Bluetooth. I have checked and the car appears to have the 'combo' box, I'm not sure if I need to have any coding done to enable the comms to the phone. |

If you have Z0F media package, can you retro fit 6NF & 6NR? Or re-code the system?

Just a tip if you are getting the snap-in adapter. Get the media one with the built in fan. Without this one the phone will be burning hot after a while in the adapter. Costs a bit more but worth it if you dont want an iPhone that can burn your hand...
