i am trying another phone this week, apart from initial connection issues its been problem free for my first one hour journey this week, but the problems are intermittent so a longer test over days will tell..

i have mounted the antenna in the console, between the iDrive head unit and the MMI box, with abit of foam packing inbetween both so nothing will move loose or get crushed. its directed towards me and cant be more than 3ft away from the phone currenty, Id hope that the antenna is omnidirectional so it isnt massively important aslong as its close?
