Mine is NBT but there are settings for CIC.

Carlinkit Wireless Carplay Kit... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YC37KYF...p_mob_ap_share

I do notice the audio quality is not as good as when plugged up to our OEM usb. The way it works is it makes you select "front aux," as the input.
I used the instructions from YouTube mmi prime.

Exactly the same unit as the one I installed in our 650i and X5. Very happy with the unit overall. Can’t complain about the sound quality, even on the B&O system in the X5.

ECS tips. 3.5 inches diameter so that's about 90mm.

These units interface with aux directly on the head unit so no need to run a cable to the console. Pretty simple install overall.

just bought a 2017 650i for less than market price. Owner before me had it just sitting there in a garage for 3 years straight, changed the oil at the dealer so that I can get a full inspection and I am picky about the transmission fluid so I put this in:

that should keep the tranny running awesome.

Also detailed it with Mother's products!

great stuff!

Tried to trade our 2013 650x convertible yesterday for a new Audi A7.

Dealer didn't want it, said it would be too hard to flip because he said the color (Champaign w/white interior) was not what anyone would want and a vert in winter would not sell. Oh well, still got 6mo left on extended warranty, so might as well keep it for another summer. Going out today and give it a bath

Hi Bimmers.

Hello Bimmers.

I am grateful to this forum ... thanks to him I decided to buy a 6 series almost a year ago.

I send you all a greeting from Barcelona (Spain)

I speak very little English. I apologize for my level of English.

If I write a sentence that is not grammatically correct, I apologize.

I have decided to take the step of registering.

I will post a photo.

I have followed the threads of our dear sixes.

And for me you have all been an inspiration.

Thanks.

I present to you my six..

I hope you like it.

It is the basic model, with the Diesel engine. It is the most modest six in terms of engine ... but I am absolutely in love with my six.

Hi.

Today photographic report.

I hope you like it.

I have tried to make it the best possible with the lowest cost.

They are subtle changes.

The evening light was good.

Magspain, welcome to the forum! A very nice looking car you have. Don't worry about your English (English is my second language). I have seen much worse from the locals over here.

There are a few others, mostly in the UK, that have the Diesel version as well.

I have been to Valencia, Barcelona and Madrid. Unfortunately, I have not been able to do much sightseeing because of my work schedule. Spain is a beautiful country!
