Had my Prem + Avant for exactly one week and basically love it. Three minor Q's so far:

- Has anyone had any luck loading the iPhone phone book into a non-Nav MMI? It just takes my 'favorites'

- Is the dealer correct that the whole country's backordered on the iPod integration cable, or should I be able to get it from another dealer?

- Backing up, the headrest always seems to be right in my line of vision. Is anyone else having this problem? What are you doing about it?

Thanks!

Which firmware do you have on your iPhone? Mine sends the entire phone book over BT fine. However, like you said mine is a Nav MMI although I doubt the phone part is different at all.

I was able to pick up the iPod cable at a local dealer with no issue. Maybe it's out of stock in your area? If you need, I'm sure you can order it online and possibly for cheaper.

Haven't noticed this at all but I also rely on my backup camera if my view is obstructed.

Well, when I say free, I mean included in the $40k I spent?

Also, It does take quite awhile for the phonebook to download the first time. Like maybe up to 10 minutes?
