My only issue with it is sometimes the music doesn't sound right and there sometimes is static. When I touch or move the cord there is a lot of static like the cord is already going bad. Maybe this is due to the cord being so bent under the storage lid. After moving the cord around I am usually able to get full sound static free.

unable to get their Ipod touch to work? My 2008 will accept every Ipod but my touch.
Any suggestions are welcome, BMW service is useless so far.

Does it have the USB/Aux option? If it has that option are you using the Y-Cable that plugs the iPod into it? If it does have it you should get a Y-cable. You might need a new Y-cable. The new 2nd gen touches no longer charge over firewire so you'll need the 796 Y-cable. The 4th Gen Nano, 3G iPhone, and 120 GB Classic all require the new 796 iPod cable in order for it to charge.

The BMW dealer has them. They should be able to swap your Y-Cable for a new one at no extra charge since you paid for the 6FL option. The US 6FL option includes the iPod cable free of charge. 61 12 0 440 796 is the part number for the new cable. The dongle portion is much sleeker when compared to the older cable. Hope this helps.

I think the dealer forgot to give you the cable. Some dealers forget to give the customer the 6FL y-cable. Try the glovebox as well to see if it's in there. The 796 cable should be the one that they give you from the factory if you order 6FL. Canadian owners have to purchase the cable separately.

When can we expect to see a styling update to the 328i, meaning new body style or different exterior appearance?
Thanks,
Mike

It's about every 7 years between major model changes. In the interim there's a mid-cyle appearance update on the 4th Model Year--that's almost always just minor light and trim changes. For the E46, this update occurred in the 2002 MY. For the E90 it was this year, the 2009 MY.
Here's the recent "major change" schedule for the sedan:
From E36 to E46:
1999 MY
From E46 to E90:
2006 MY
From E90 to E??:
2013 MY?
So my best guess is that you'll see a new 3 Series in late 2012 for the 2013 model year.
