I love how mine doesnt have those aux and usb ports in the center console even tho its a facelift, love it

@FoulNews 4 ай бұрын

It's probably due to the trim level of the car. I know that some CCC head units are part of the "business only" E60 trim, which usually has more limited options for entertainment. It should be possible to retrofit the USB and aux port though. However, if you go through that trouble, it's better to either upgrade to CIC or better yet, a suitable Android head unit / "infotainment" system.

@@noxlight5564 Seems like it might be trim-level related then. I'd check the glovebox for a USB outlet as some CIC's had them there and it's also where most people add a USB outlet after a CIC retrofit if their car didn't come with a CIC. If it does exist there, then you may just need to run an AUX cable from the CIC to the glovebox to have both.

I bought a Multimedia for BMW e60 520d 2008. I mainly bought it because of the navigation and music. So I dont know how to explain what I'm going to ask you but the situation is like this - originaly I dont have a USB port or Bluetooth in my car. I only have aux and I dont have any problems with aux. But when I try to play music from Multimedia CarPlay that I have bought, from USB port or from bluetooth on the carplay the music is very strange. You hear everyting but the vocal or bass. You mainly hear back vocals. Do you have any idea why, I tried everything, sound settings does not help. I think the main thing is that the car doesnt originaly have usb or bluetooth music mods. So do you maybe have any explanation or suggestion?

Hello, is there any noticeable sound difference between this and if you were to use standard aux

@FoulNews 10 ай бұрын

Hello, I haven't noticed any difference between the two, but it should be noted that I haven't used the AUX port directly with any device in quite some time, other than the Bluetooth adapter itself. For me, it works great and sounds pretty good too.

Nope, you can still connect to the factory phone bluetooth the same way or use this module for calls.

I have a 2010 528i AUX and USB in the same location as yours. I purchased this the other day and I cant seem to get it connected. Blue light blinking, phone recognizes it but fails to actually pair. I took it inside my house to try a another usb outlet and it paired fine. I cant find anything online about it...

@FoulNews 4 ай бұрын

It sounds like a few things could be happening here. 1. Your E60's USB outlet isn't providing enough current or voltage to the USB. You can check this buy using a USB voltage and current tester, which can be found fairly cheap on Amazon, Ebay, Aliexpress etc... Just make sure that if you order one that it'll fit within the confines of the center console. 2. The USB module may be a different version and may require more power than the USB outlet in the center console can provide. 3. The USB module is defective and will only work with higher current USB outlets. I'd recommend double checking the specs on the USB bluetooth module that you have and see what the minimum voltage and current requirements are for it, then make sure your center console's outlet is sufficient enough to provide adequate power or find a module that requires less power if that's the case.

Hi, I have an 2006 e60 but it doesn't have a USB port or aux input, is there any way to be able to listen to music that isn’t an fm transmitter?

@FoulNews 3 ай бұрын

You should be able to add an aux port to your CCC head unit. Many people usually just run them into the glovebox if theirs didn't come with one from the factory. From there you could wire up a USB port as well for power. I'd recommend making sure it's fused and on KL30, but activated by KL15.

It'll work if there's an auxiliary input and USB powered port available somewhere. I'm not sure about the 2004 center console though, but if yours has these ports, it should work.

It depends. Some pre-LCI E60's don't have the aux port + USB slot in the center console. If youre has the usb slot and aux port there, then it will work just fine.

As long as the 650i you have has a USB port and Aux port near one another, then yes it will work. You would just have to select Aux as the input on the radio as shown for it to play through bluetooth.
