My Ride: 2008 Sapphire Black on Black M5 - loaded sans soft close doors
![Default](https://5series.net/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I think I've had mine in the car for the last year. This is Chicago - 0 in the winter and 100 in the summer - no issues.
Of course I would not want to see what the battery life would be like if it was not plugged in!

For what is worth, the BMW Service wonk here in God's country told me that leaving the ipod in the car was bad, because the car would not go into sleep mode, thus draining the battery.
My car sleeps just fine with my iPod. It might be a bit groggy in the morning if I keep it out too late, however.
