2011 BMW X5  [0.00]
I have had the unit from 4x4 shop for a few years now and have always had issues with the audio. I bought the usb dongle that has both wired and wireless CarPlay (wired I would say is smoother). Both still tend to skip (usually when the phone is being used for nav, etc) but furthermore the quality isn't great even when not skipping (very slight static noise).

My fix to the problem is getting my CarPlay set up, then swiping up on my iPhone to see my control center and selecting the music audio output (I'll attach a picture of what I'm talking about). Then I select my BMW's Bluetooth which works much better; instead of the aux coming from the android unit.

The final result is I can use CarPlay and my BMW Bluetooth at the same time.
