PEMP for BMW E60 E84 E89 E90 E70 F07 F10 F12 F01 F25 CIC Wired and Wireless CarPlay Android Auto MMI Box, Make Calls in CarPlay or Android Auto Using The OEM Microphone (CIC)

overall working as expected and for the price it’s very good

Wanted to put out a review to help any BMW X5 E70 owners. The unit is very responsive. You do need to use the provided mic unfortunately and the AUX in center console. Still figuring out where to hide the box. It is a very easy install in that you only have to unplug one connection from the back of the stereo unit. You do need to use some caution though. You need to remove the AC/Heat module to get stereo unit out. If you put everything back in and your AC/Heat module doesn't light up or work, it's one of the connectors in the back that is the issue. It is the funky clip. It just does not seat completely tight. I went through the entire car checking every fuse to figure this out at the end. You can slide the plug out of the clip, then just plug it in and all should be good. I still need to get either a new clip or figure a way to secure it in there. I don't think it will go anywhere though. Hope this helps anyone else looking to purchase!

My first install was on a BMW X1, and I had issues configuring wireless Android Auto. Support was responsive and we've figured out that my box was configured with AA disabled in the factory settings, after enabling everything was fine.Actually it was good enough that I bought a second unit for our Mini Cooper. I've also added a reverse camera for that car since it did not have any. Now the company doesn't officially mentions supporting Minis, but the infotainment is BMW's NBT, so I felt confident enough.The only issue I have encountered with this second install was that the dynamic tracks were not working, but support provided me with a firmware update that was enable to sniff the steering CAN messages from the MINI and sure enough the dynamic tracks started working after the update.So all in all, a very good product, backed by excellent support.

First , this is an awesome product. Works better than expected. Installation is not hard but some experience would not hurt. It is plug and play but can be a bit challenging especially with BMW connectors that can be tricky to remove. Once installed the set up not hard but not for Android Auto you need to use the USB cable. I have a 335i with Harman Kardon and to hide the device was a challenge. Non Harman Kardon should be easier.

First off let me say, this is a pricey item, so getting something that works maybe 1% of the time and isnt a pain in the butt to use should be a pretty reasonable thing right? Not with PEMP. They make sure they give you the most difficult to use item that works with maybe 1 thing in your car. Can no longer use the internet mic in my 2016 bmw 328I i must use the pretty pathetic, cheap mic they provide you which means more wires outside the on the dash and makes it look awful. The hookup was fairly easy, if you dont mind shoving bundles upon bundles of wires into your dash and trying to make them fit for three hours. Totally on BMW though. Also, I have to use the USB they provided on their wire hookups to use wired carplay. Another star off. ALSO the wireless apple carplay is EXTREMELY LAGGY, extremely slow and is constantly making me miss turns. Please skip this and go with someone else. They clearly are just money hungry to put such an inferior item on this website and charge your 300 dollars for it. What a waste.

Works perfectly and as expected. Took about 2 hours to install. Watched a ton of videos to make sure we knew what to do.
