Question about Iphone

[Bimmer26]

Just purchased the smartphone integration option along with BMW assist for my 09 M3, and my dealer is telling me the snap-in cradle is a separate charge. I thought this was part of the package, who is correct?

Nope, seperate charge. Considered an accessory. Im on my 3rd cradle because of defects.

What kind of defects? Anything to look out for?

Just wanted to make sure.

Naa, not really anything I think we as end-users can control. The fact that sometimes I have to "eject" either the phone or the cradle altogether to "reset" is BEYOND annoying. But I guess I do like how seamless it is when it does work. Went 4 months on the second cradle with no issues. Then, just like on the first cradle, with the phone in the cradle playing music, it only comes out one channel. Either the left or the right, one side would not play through the cradle. Plug it into the USB adapter, everything was fine.
