We absolutely adore our E92 M3, with it still putting a smile on our face every time we drive it. However the tech is still very much 15+ years old, and being used to more modern cars such as the G series BMWs mean we get used to certain creature comforts!
To fix this we add a Mr12Volt MMI box that utilises the existing iDrive screen and controller but adds a ton of features including full wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
In addition to this we add the Induktiv wireless charger, this is an OEM+ piece which can fast charge your phone without overheating like many other systems suffer with.
This combo means its seamless to have your phone connected, for music/podcasts, calls and navigation all whilst charging your phone without having to plug in.

This is a fantastic product, which I thoroughly recommend! Evolve fitted it to my e92 M3 on Monday 12th February. I had a android auto unit that had been added by a previous owner. It was horrendous and didn't work! This meant that it took longer to fit. They also managed to make sure the rear camera worked! As well as this they showed me some of their cars like the e90 M3 CRT. Amazing! 👌

I've got an Integrated Automotive system in my E90 LCI M3, which is also very good. To switch between it and idrive you press and hold the menu button for 3secs. It defaults to idrive unless it detects your phone (which is always!), in which case it defaults to the Integrated Automotive system.

@ozzygiritli 7 месяцев назад

I have the one older model of mr12volt, the blue box with equaliser. Seems like they changed to a harness splitter without having to split the idrive controller connector. Im wondering if they fixed the audio feedback issue when calling with android auto. Basically, if you call someone with android auto, the reciever hears their voice echo. Doesnt happen with carplay. Also, only happens if you dont connect to the cars native bluetooth as if you do, the call routes to the idrive rather than through the mr12volt. Also does the oem mic splitter give clear audio? I had issues with the older provided mic.

Great vid as always. Did you guys need to do any coding like enabling the CD changer or did you just need to use the loop and the CIC will pick it up? I have a 2010 E90 M3 with the same setup (no cd changer), but can't get a straight answer from anyone.

@MrMetsfan67 6 месяцев назад

Do you guys have any issues with the induktiv unit? I've had it installed in my car and find it very finicky. My phone doesn't quite sit right in the tray (iPhone 15 pro), if it's even the slightest bit off center it won't charge, and I often get a heat warning on my phone. It also just doesn't charge my phone very often - it'll only up it by 1 or 2 percent throughout the course of a drive. Have you guys ever considered making a MagSafe compatible version of this solution?

@EvolveAutomotive 6 месяцев назад

We haven’t had any issues no, it works really well in our experience! Easily charging the phone without getting too hot even when using wireless CarPlay/Android auto. What I would say is that all the phones we have tried are bigger than yours and are held in place by being pretty much the size of the tray, which means they’re super secure. Unsure if Induktiv plan to update this charger to be MagSafe like the F3/8x charger, but in my experience it makes no difference between the two other than the onscreen animation of MagSafe.

@Hassanw9 7 месяцев назад

@EvolveAutomotive 7 месяцев назад

Having used this pretty extensively for 3-4 hour journeys whilst using wireless CarPlay I can confirm it works really well, adding about 20% battery an hour on an iPhone 14 Pro Max. Is it slower and generate more heat than a cable? 100%, that’s just physics. But the convenience is great and the Induktiv works so much better than the G8X BMW OEM systems!

If you can afford the fuel bill and warm it up correctly they make just as good of an everyday car now as they did when new. However while these upgrades would be great day to day, we did them for weekend enjoyment. Because it’s incredibly annoying to either have a phone mount or rely on outdated slow maps when out enjoying the car. Roadtrips etc this would be a must have for us.
