Works well with CIC_High head unit

I have a 'hybrid' CIC_High head unit before BMW went fully NBT which means all my plugs were NBT style although the software was still CIC . I ordered this NBT device on the advice of Bimmerpost and hooked everything up straight away. I had to use the included mic extender and plug it into the standard mic, but all aspects of Carplay have been working flawlessly since installing it. The only thing I find difficult is the Siri volume. I can't set it up independently of the music. Especially when working with Google Maps navigation, if I turn down the volume while talking to Siri, the volume of the music is reduced. And when hovering, it's unusually loud. We need to figure out how to fix this.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • I don't remember
