Can I get more brand info on the "V-Link" mentioned that works with the BMW (and iPhone)?

i used it on i pod touch and iPhone 4S with by Audi. Problems are with the wireless communication between the PLX and the iPhone. Does not work all the time. I power down the iPod after each use and reboot. If you switch off the car and re-start it does not link easily

I doubt it, as it does not even work in a BMW. Both BMW and iPhone do not recognize the cable as a valid Apple accessory so it does not do anything. I've sent mine back.

I have an Audi w MMI my self, and I have not been able to link up to it. That would be nice though.

I am not sure my genuine BMW 2013 Navigation would work in every BMW because to avoid issue i made a research on this as to avoid having compatibility issues but if you call any BMW dealer and give details of your vehicle i believe they would get you better feedback instead of going for cheap on Ebay

I can't guarantee. I'm not the seller but I can tell you that it is working with my bmw 2009 550i. Also if you don't have an iPhone, you could save the music in mp3 format to a USB stick then plug it to the USB port then you will be able to see all the track and play without any iphone/ipod. The drawback is there no playlist.

Hello,If your BMW has an "Aux In" plug-in and a "USB" plug-in, it should work fine.BMW - AutoGoodParts

It works fine with my iPhone 4 and 2011 328i xdrive. Slow charging, but just fine, and a good price.

The 301180060 is for Android and the 301180061 is for ios so be careful. The dongle works with the free app for "generic" codes and data for all vehicles from 1996 to current. If you want more in-depth manufacturer specific information you can buy more apps from Launch for about $40.00 for each brand name ( Audi is one $40.00, MB is another $40.00 Honda is another $40.00). I believe ther are deals for 5 or more (check on the Launch site). This sounds expensive but the alternative is to buy a tool with them all for between $3000.00 to $10,000.00.

No idea. However, one thing I'd like to point out is that the new add-on smart cord provides you with the ability to link with your iPhone and the app for integration. Might be worth looking into. A hardwire like you're talking about is a nice to have as well.

I do not know the answer to that one as I do not work on BMW vehicles. I would have to refer you to Pioneer.

I can't answer the VW question, but I use the dongle with several of my android based devices. Just download Torque, and make sure to turn on bluetooth on the tablet.

Hello BMW is still working on a adapter to work with pre 2014 BMW. There has been a idrive change that only 2014 and a select few 2013 are compatible with the current adapter. There is a basic adapter available but it only works for phone not music or media thanks.

I believe so I think you can link it with the Bluetooth however I think this unit was designed to be paired with the iPhone 4/4s and apple iPod the cord that can be purchased separately is designed for those apple products. This is a nice unit for the car and has a number of features I love it! To get more information contact Kenwood or visit their website

It will depend upon the software you are using to talk to the BMW, this cable is just the USB to OBDII connection. I used it on an Audi A4 with some free OBDII basic software that could only read info, you normally have to pay $$ for the software that can actually enable functions within the car.

doesn't matter what type or brand the car is....this will work. Attach this to the end of your iPod cable....sync to your device through your bluetooth settings....and start streaming. The sound is amazing. One thing though....sometimes it fails to connect after I've turned car off and then returned. I have to go back into bluetooth settings and connect again.. but not all the time. I have three of these....one in three different cars...it works in all of them.
