Are you using a back up camera with this setup?
I spent all of last night searching Ebay/Amazon/Alibaba and it seems impossible to make heads or tails of it since half the reviews sound fake or might be 7 years old. Trying to figure out what the best China camera to buy would be but I really don't want something that has horrible quality or doesn't fit.

Ok, this sort of worked. It does improve the sound a bit, but when plugged in causes annoying noise. In the past I've seen this caused by an led and this comes on when charging, might see if I can disable it. Would still like to see if I can get this working through the harness.

The one I got has a built in battery, it works OK on battery only just not when plugged in to USB. I couldn't find a USB powered one for a decent price that didn't have a battery. To be fair a lot of these type on Amazon say not to use it plugged in. Here's the one I got: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

I'm half deaf so honestly I don't even know why I'm bothering but it sounds like an interesting problem to solve.

I would like to add Apple CarPlay to my E92 M3, after a little research it seems like MMI Prime from Bimmer-Tech is what I've narrowed it down to.
It seems about 3x the cost of typical units in this thread but do you guys think it's worth it? I'm waiting for Black Friday to hopefully snag one at a better price. |

I wouldn't say it's worth it, no.
I wouldn't have paid three times what I did for my unit, even though my early unit has the flat bass. From the sounds of things, later revisions have solved this. After a few early niggles (fixed with updates), the wireless CarPlay connection is solid, and I use it ever time I drive the car. I connect my phone to the BMW Bluetooth audio for music and the audio is fantastic. |

Not sure if you just purchased it new but if you did it might be worth trying to get a refund or exchange.

I had the same problem, there was a problem with almost all the electronics in car including lights, electric windows and even odometer was dead. It turned out that I incorrectly plugged the harness, especially the part with the I drive knob. Please try different Configurations. I remember that I ended up without connecting anything to the knob and I did not connect one cable at all.
