code 753 and do a screen calibration? ... - .- -.

will have a look tomorrow X5 40d

Got into a secret menu by holding the valet button for around a minute but nothing I can do in that menu. Is there another one I am missing? X5 40d

So finally got it up and going. Not quite what I was hoping for. interface works well but you lose the Factory satnav and if you want sound out of the aftermarket box you lose factory sound as aux has to be enabled to get sound from the aftermarket box.

I normally listen to the radio whist driving, obviously now I cant. I tried streaming radio etc but where I live phone signal is pretty sketchy so that is a no go. I will find a way but for now I am pretty happy for what it cost.

I did consider replacing the whole setup but as my car has dual screen the cheapest interface/screen I can find is over £700. Its just not worth it for me.

if you want a cheap and simple to fit Apple carplay this fits the bill if you don't listen to the radio  X5 40d

this was the reason why i went for a portable type screen mounted above the OE screen...

thsi gives you carplay/android auto and you still have DAB/FM and the native navigation.. ... - .- -.

Yeah I think that was the right decision. See how this goes, I might change to something similar to your set up X5 40d

So had this some months now and basically its rubbish.

You lose OE satnav and if you want sound to work when reading text or satnav you need to put it in aux but then you lose your radio. I cant use any streaming services as I live up north and the signal is very patchy, would be a good option if you can stream

Another annoying thing is, I cant look at my surround cameras. If I hit the button they come on then drop straight back off and return to the car play screen.

Basically a waste of £300. Might be acceptable if you stream music

On the very odd occasion it will work and I can hear text being read out but I would say that works 2 out of 10. Obviously the option is available but never really works. When it works its pretty good. Hit read text, it will cut the radio, read the text then return to the radio.

overall 2 out of 10 I would say X5 40d

This is the same system fitted to mine when I brought it. I have the same issue with the reversing camera dropping out. I have tried to remove it, but when plug in the original system I cannot get the mapping on the touch screen, but the next turn information appears in the message centre and also the location / road number on the touch screen. Looks l8ke an issue with the LDVS cable.

Looking at going for a separate screen as above

Yeah you and me both X5 40d

Best regards

Sorry posted wrong video edited now

Wonder if the software update fixes some issues. I have the very same unit from the same suppliers and it’s pretty hit or miss. Annoying I can’t see my cameras as it jumps back to the nav. Reverse camera works but keep getting a screen asking if I want to use the camera. Of course I do I am in reverse that’s the whole point.

Mine is under the glovebox. No issues with wire length.

Will see if I can get the upgrade before I rip it out and go with 2 screens X5 40d

What are you dip switch settings on?
I can send you the firmware
