I have a F20 (6.5" screen) with Alpine HiFi upgrade kit installed. So 1 adapter of the hifi kit is connected to the factory harness. In this case, how can I connect the carplay kit (harness) to the existing system? Thanks

@bimmer-tech 3 года назад

Hi, we can only check your CarPlay compatibility by your VIN, so please send us its last 7 digits and we'll see if you can add it.

I have a 2015 228i x drive need to replace the screen. It has bubbles in it. Does any one know where I can purchase cheaper than the dealership?

@easycompany1991 2 года назад

the cable you moved with the zip tie, what do you do with them ? where do you plug them in, it looks like you just left them hanging ?

@bimmer-tech 2 года назад

Hello, this is the MMi USB port that can be used for performing the MMI software upgrade, charging the phone, playing the music through the USB stick, etc. It can be placed anywhere. On the video we left it hanging on the passenger side, but it is not the only place for it. For instance it can be placed in the glovebox compartment. On the video we left it there, so everything is visible :)

@RS20O0 Месяц назад

The camera cut at the exact moment you were about to slide the MMI into place. Where exactly did you locate it? In the subsequent clip where you are refitting the fibre optic plug, the MMI is nowhere to be seen. Thanks.

@bimmer-tech Месяц назад

The honest answer is wherever it fits. This was just slid behind it. - Dylan

@buzzlightweight Год назад

Hay bro, I’d love to buy your product but I live in the UK. My F22 doesn’t have an AUX port, so would need coding, I read on your site that you do it remotely, will you do it if I’m in the uk?

@bimmer-tech Год назад

Sure, will do :)

@exstatiska7177 2 года назад

how does the parking sensors, servicing stuff actually work alongside this? Do you just lose the BMW functionality in place of android auto?

@bimmer-tech 2 года назад

Not at all, every OEM function works as it did before the install.

@ZeroAnderster 2 года назад

Hello. I installed the Android Auto Retrofit but Im not 100% convinced by the audio quality. As I have to connect the Android phone via USB anyway - is it possible to buy a "USB-C to USB-C & Headphone jack" splitter to connect a DAC inbetween (to improve audio quality)? I want to double check before I buy the splitter and everything.

@bimmer-tech 2 года назад

On iPhone we are 100% sure it won't work, on Android we'd have to test that. Please contact our support team at support@bimmer-tech.net with your order number and they'll try to help you out.

@steph34 2 года назад

Thank you guys. I'd like to have Android auto in my 2016 M2 with NBT Evo ID 4. Is this the same way to install?

@bimmer-tech 2 года назад

The process should be somewhat similar but definitely not identical. We have a detailed PDF with the installation instructions you might want to take a look at. Please contact our support at support@bimmer-tech.net and they will help you with the installation process and answer all the questions you might have.

Hi, I have an F23 LCI with the same iDrive screen as seen in this video. When I check my VIN on your website it says I need to order the additional cable and AUX programming session. But, I already have a UniCarScan UCSI-2000 Bluetooth OBD adapter that works with the Bimmercode app. Can I use Bimmercode to enable the AUX port myself, without buying your additional cable?

@bimmer-tech 3 года назад

Hi, we don't cooperate with Bimmercode, so we're not familiar with their coding procedures. But you can send the last 7 digits of your VIN to our sales team and they'll let you know what would be the best option in your situation: www.bimmer-tech.net/page-contact

Hello, to be able to see if the MMI will be compatible with your particular vehicle and if there will be any differences in installation process we will need your VIN number :)

@owens1544 3 года назад

Where is the USB cable supposed to rest? Does it just hang out the side panel?

@bimmer-tech 3 года назад

The USB cable can be installed in such a way that it's not visible (sticked, pressed, etc.). However, if you don't like it, you can also hide it completely. This will require disassembling of dashboard and pulling out the cable every time you want to update the MMI module.

@Mau105 3 года назад

Is this also available or does it matter if one has the smaller screen not the 8" on 2015 M22?

@bimmer-tech 3 года назад

To check if it fits your car we'd have to know more details about your model. Please send the last 7 digits of your VIN to our support team and they'll see if you're compatible: www.bimmer-tech.net/page-contact

Hi, I have a 2018 F23 with Evo, and hence the bigger head unit. I cannot find a way to get the MMI Prime box and the new cable bundle to fit behind the head unit! I have spent quite a long time trying... Would anyone be able to help provide any tips here? Is it possible? Do you have to remove any other panels to get access to the cable bundle to manipulate it? I have seen some comments on other cars about having to remove the glove box - didn't really want to do that...

@bimmer-tech 2 года назад

Hello, in order to help you with this problem, we will need your VIN to check which kind of situation we are dealing with. Also, can you tell us if you tried placing the MMI above (or eventually below) the head unit?

@damonflorencekennish6205 2 года назад

@@bimmer-tech Thank you for this reply. How should I send you my VIN number? I have not tried to fit the MMI unit above or below the head unit, only behind it. I have the larger head unit size and did not think there was enough space, by maybe I am wrong!

Can I use this video for installation help for a regular NBT, not EVO? Thanks

@bimmer-tech 3 года назад

The installation across all 2-series will be similar. The only difference you might run into is the size of the head unit. Depending on the configuration the head unit might be bigger and fill the entire cavity. If that’s the case you will have to put the MMI between the glove box compartment and the head unit.

How did you find space to fit the box? I have a 2014 M235i and can't see where this box would fit.

@bimmer-tech 3 года назад

Depending on your car’s configuration you can either put the MMI Prime unit on top or under the head unit. If your car came with a bigger head unit that fills the cavity you will have to drop the glove box compartment and place the MMI between the glove box and the head unit cavity.

@Sammyalqattan 2 года назад

It really sux that we cant have the new touch screen! Why didn’t you make one for other models! I got 2015 235i I think its not fair! And the fact that this unit is more expensive than the screen! Why?

@bimmer-tech 2 года назад

We only offer original screens and BMW does not make touch screens for the 2015 235i, hence no upgrade. When it comes to the cost of CarPlay MMI Prime, it's first of all vehicle specific, and second it covers the cost of installation support and product usage support.
