Amsterdave - I have read that entire thread and MrTookies' feedback is one reason why I am leaning towards the wired solution. Have you found any more info on that other wired option you found? Also, is audio routed through the AUX port?
skoold2003 - My personal opinion is that the Avin units are a whole other beast. I believe Maverik259 is happy with his Avin unit but I would prefer not to run two operating systems, i.e. Android and iDrive. I do remember reading some place that Joyeauto does not require audio being routed through AUX so that would be a plus. |

bucawke - tell me about it! there are so many threads just in the f15 site alone. Forget about all the threads for other chassis.
mrfochon - routing audio through B/T is less than ideal. if you want turn-by-turn directions from google or waze, you will need to change audio sources. if you want waze to be heard, then would you need to run your music app through the AUX port? the ideal setup imo is not using AUX port (for sound quality reasons). |

I see FC being super price aggressive, UniChip being on the higher end, all others depending on which sales you hit. Having a hard time deciding even for myself. All are giving deals for groups without any documentation. In any case we re all testers |

DeeO pointed me to this one...https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1577804
Most comprehensive I have found, albeit a bit dated now. Best part is that it's not 1,000 pages long. |

I'm starting to think that I may just wait a few months or a year for a new system to come out that just works. No special workaround just works.
These just came on the scene so I imagine they will hear back from customers and tweak the system so theirs no issues. Good things come to those who wait . Or patience .... We will see.... |

So is it just me or does it look like FCTech has everything we want? Wireless and full 360 can support.
Am I missing anything? Or should we move the GB to that option? |

Hopefully your friend that you were getting the Kremersino unit for has 360 and Harman Kardon so you guys can have a full test. FCTech is one of the Kremersino grey boxes right? |

I have asked if audible PDC beeping still occurs when obstacles are detected, at which point you can just press the button to see. Should I ask for a price for 10 and 20 (with direct ship to US/CAN)? |
