    Thanks for the video. Those are not resistors but capacitors, and they filter out voltage spikes in this configuration. So indeed, if by some reason when you plug in/out the plug you generate high pulses, this potentially can damage the speakers.

    The belt on my car snapped and g mangled behind the crankshaft pulley. There it pressed the crank shaft seal inside the engine. It also created a sudden jolt in the engine causing the chain tensioner n the timing chain to loosen up in a few milliseconds. When it finally decided to continue its revolutions the timing chain wa pulled over the teeth of the cam shafts resulting in bent valves and six of seven cracked cam shaft bearings. Had to change the cylinder head and timing chain and tensioner to sort it. So change your serpentine belt regularly folks

    I’ve enjoyed the whole 5er series and watched mainly in preparation for buying on myself. I’ve since purchased a f31 320d ‘lux’ and find the sound distortion while my iPhone is plugged into the aux port unacceptable! While remembering you had a hack for a similar issue on the 5er, do you reckon this hack would be relevant on the f31?

    I have the big stereo HiFi System Professional with the DSP Logic7 amplifier and quite a number of speakers and subwoofer. My car is from 2007 but I do not experience the flat sound when using the Aux In. Maybe it's because the speakers in this setup can take quite a bit of beating so they didn't have to use the resistors.

    the reason why the aux input has no juice is not really explained in the video - the reason is, anything going over aux is NOT passed through the DSP in the car, at all.
