2007 BMW Z4 with the Business CD radio, no nav. It does show "AUX" available using the MODE button. Will this adapter work?

After 2003/2004 they made it available so it should work without any issues, radios prior to 3/04 the only adapter that would would would be just the USB/iPod one, your year model you can use this aux adapter

You already have an aux if you have a 2007 z4. read the manual and look above the ashtray on the right.

Yes any radio model 2003 and over will work. The AUX mode you have just guarantees it will work.
1478379
Yes it does, when you cycle with the mode button. This did not work with my s3 galaxy tho.

Based on the fact your car is from the future, it should work. Even if your car was a 2004 model, it should work with the bmw business stereo.

Nathan, how does one connect the adapter to the car stereo? I have a Honda Accord with AM/FM/XM/CD but there's no opening or port for any kind of adapter. You say that you've permanently wired the connection. Does that mean you fiddled with something under or behind the dashboard?

You need the dealership to enable the AUX output in the iDrive system. They shouldn't charge for this. An alternative is to use an FM Transmitter.

Yes. This one is designed to plug into the round access port under the hood. However, if for some reason your access port is the square ODB/ODBII type located under the driver's side dash, you will also need the adapter cable (usually sold separately). Other readers, please correct me if wrong, but believe BMW switched to the ODB under-the-dash style ports in 1998.

I have a 2008 Honda Pilot as well. No Navi. My head unit has the standard 6 CD changer, am/fm, XM and AUX buttons. After taking my head unit out I was disappointed to find that this cable did not match up to any of the inputs I had. I would expect you'll have the same experience.

From the looks of it yeah. All this adapter needs is a power source and to be able to plug into the antenna plug for your stereo. You wont be able to control it via the stereo or steering wheel buttons but you should be able to connect it just fine.

I have a VW stock radio, and how mine works is if the CD drive is empty then it will default to AUX. If there is a CD in the drive, it will play the CD.

I have a 2011 BMW X3 with IDrive but no navigation and the Y cable works perfectly. I am able to listen to Pandora without any problems.

I bough this for BMW 125i with standard head unit but it does not work. Head unit requires to recognize the iPod connected to the wire before it switches from AUX to IPod mode. The Bluetooth receiver doesn't seem to emulate itself as an IPod. I have bought to adapters (this and another brand) and neither works.

I have a 2011 Jetta Sportwagen... if your system works like mine then you will be able to play your smart phone media files via bluetooth... nothing will show on your infotainment screen, but the audio will play just fine...also, your phone will be charging in the process...I also have an android phone and it works just fine....

I have an 06 eclipse gt and it is the same thing. No aux after pressing cd on the dash. Behind the steering wheel, there is a middle button that you can press. Keep pressing till you get aux. You will then be able to use the aux cord. It works perfect! The only thing is you have to take out the dash and plug it in the back. You would then have to fish the wire to the desired placement. Hope this helps!

I'm not sure but I doubt it will work. I have tried this with a single factory CD player and it worked fora few months but it does not work anymore. I'm going to try using a sirius fm adapter instead. I have a toyota 2004 sienna.The installation was easy but it did not last.

It should work. My radio has navigation and xm, this particular unit plugs into the back of the stereo not the xm tuner like others. Though some features go thru xm on the radio itself. So thinking you might have to disclose where you have xm or not.

The primary requirement is that your vehicle must have a Double-Din dash. Most of your cheapo aftermarket CD players are single-din, which is a standardized height and width measurement; most in-dash navigation headunits are double-din, which is two single-din openings stacked on each other. Nearly all vehicles have either single or double-din openings in the dash. You can do a google search for your vehicle's model, and you'll probably find someone who has successfully installed a similar headunit to this one; if you find someone who has made it work, then that should indicate that this nav unit will fit. Do a YouTube search for dash removal or aftermarket headunit install on your vehicle's model, and this should give you a visual of what it looks like under your dash.

That particular unit only works through the XM setting. They may have a different unit that doesn't. If you go to their website and type in your vehicle, they will tell which model number you require. Look up the specs afterwords and it should say which setting the unit uses to play your music.

I have an 05 gx, if there isn't a sat button in the car, the aux cable part works great as well as the iPod part, but the xm part does not work for me, and iv used the xm part and and the one you get with the isimple kit, neither worked
