I say that because its to do with Apple making changes...I bought a brand new run around Yaris for home, changed the ipod for a new one 1 month down the line and the lead no longer charged the new ipod.

The manufacturer of the lead will always say, that their lead only supports x y z devices up to 3rd gen etc. Besides I don't think that most ipod leads are designed to run the iphone (something to do with interference or who knows what), and most ipod sound docks/accessories don't support the iphone either!

greatbm - has cleared things up and that BMW have now released an updated version. You did well getting a goodwill refund.

To the OP, when you say Bmw ipod fitted, do you mean you're using the y lead/armrest usb connector).
Agree with your comments and yes it was a good will from BMW as a loyal customer.
