Guys this is mad. Both my early ipod 60gb, my iPod classic 80gb and my 8gb nano work with just the standard white ipod cable that comes with the ipod. No aux in required. If its taking audio from the aux, the sound quality is going to be seriously affected.
Does anyone know what the story is here? |

For those that did not get the 6FL option when ordering can use a simple dock cable to 3.5mm cable or for a more integrated solution - the mObridge iPod integration kit. For those that have not ordered their M3 yet - choose the 6FL option. the over the counter BMW kit is much different, albeit much slower with limitations.

Tom I don't know if you guys in the states get different connectors to us, but if you don't this is plain incorrect. Here in Europe the option is called "USB Audio Interface" which provides a USB connector under the armrest alongside the aux-in port. I also got a BMW lead with the kit which looked like some sort of USB extension cable. However I didn't need to use it nor purchase the other BMW lead with both aux & usb connector. All my ipods are working perfectly without using the BMW lead, connected via the standard ipod usb/dock cable that comes free when you buy the ipod. Both the ipod control, library and sound are all transmitted over that cable. I would be grateful if someone could clarify because I hate to see people spend money unnecessarily. Mick |

Check your contract and see if you order "USB Audio Interface" is called "6FL" as it is here in the states.
