different range cables is due that e90 factory config uses usb hub and there are cable from combox to hub, and from hub to usb socket
it works without hub with combox too, but you need longest available cable, circa 3 meters long and usb/aux socket
also if you want have full factory coding you need to route aux from headunit to combox too, but, it is possible to code only USB, without aux rerouting

it's number is 61119147377 but it is non-orderable already
so, there is three ways,
take one from junkyard or make yourself using 3-wire shielded wire and contacts or code headunit option so that aux took signal from headunit connector

So I have a 2007 335i sedan. It has iDrive, sat, nav, and the aux in port. It does NOT have a 6cd changer in the trunk (it has 2 aluminum boxes but I'm not sure what they are). It does NOT have the usb port in the center console.

I've read a few forums and am still a bit confused. Here's what I "think" are the steps, but I'm hoping someone can confirm/correct me.

1) Buy the USB/AUX in socket for the center console.
2) Run the cable from the console to the head unit.
3) Code the car so USB will show up in iDrive.

What am I missing?

official way for pre-lci car with idrive or professional radio is
6fl retrofit kit - 65410445465
used or new MULF2 HIGH module - 84109229740
make photo of the modules in trunk under carpet, this can save you some money if you already have MULF2HIGH for bluetooth

I already had a usb port in my arm rest and i just installed a combox. But usb devices are not detected.. is there something I'm missing here?

USB shows up as an option on the CIC just nothing showing as plugged in. My USB drive has a led power indicator. It is never lit.

Works when the mulf is plugged in
