BMW Connected Drive

My wife has been unable to sync her iPhone to her 2012 X6 (error...cable not compatible), dealer told her that the BMW Connected will only work with Android. Umm, has anyone experienced this?

That doesn't sound right, iPhones are usually what most manufacturers work around first.

Try updating the software via BMWs website - you'll need a USB key.

She's tried both ports, console and glove. Very interesting, huh? Will try a software update and if that doesn't work. Will try another dealer.
