Hello,
I've seen these forums about the idrive/CCC unit. Scary stuff. My idrive has decided to reset about every 10 minutes. It fully resets and all function minus the stereo. The car is 20 days out of warranty (awesome)
Question: What can I expect to pay for a CCC unit? Is this a dealer only problem or can I go to another type of provider. Anyone know someone in the San Diego area? If not, I will put a tool box on the gas pedal and launch this thing off a cliff. LOL ish![Whistling](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/whistling.gif)

I've heard:
-failing electronics alternator?
-Loose cable?
-Module?
Any insight would help.
Thank you for reading

I feel your pain, here are the issues I've had.
Where did you buy your CCC unit? What do you know about a CIC upgrade?

Sure, I'll attach a pic of my car from the last SLO meet we had. As for the CCC unit, I am getting it here: Bavarian They have mixed reviews, but so did everyone else I checked out. Just remember to get it checked by an indy mechanic (if you're in SoCal I'd suggest Southbay Autohaus in Hawthorne), then if the CCC unit IS bad the get the correct part # you need by giving your VIN # to your dealer - there are several versions of CCC and they are specific to your build date.

P.S. All the exterior work to my car, except wheels, was done by Trinity Autosport, they are local so if you're interested contact member Nerweezy
