Can you confirm that your car will not work with a stock cable in the USB port in the center console? I know that Album art only functions with the normal cable in my car, the Y cable though doesn't even work. The USB port in the center console should be able to control the iPhone and give album artwork, per the BMW USA site iPod connectivity via USB is standard (at least in the states).

F30 is different from E90
Standard F30 models need the Y cable.
With other options that have been discussed on teh forum you dont need the Y-cable
