Music on iPhone

Has anyone experienced this: when I play music from my iPhone via bluetooth, the songs on the album are often played out of order. Like it will show track 3 on the iDrive display, but track 8 will be playing and the name of the track 8 song will be displayed. This never happens when my phone is plugged in to the aux input. Any ideas?

I had similar experience when I play my aux input for the first few times after I update the tracks

I have tried plugging in the USB first before starting the engine just in case it needs some time to "load" the songs, but it didn't seem to work

However once the Aux in stayed plugged in and runs a couple of times, the problem fixes itself

I still think it's the problem of "loading" the songs onto the onboard computer

My issue is I have numerous CDs on my USB. Most of the CDs play in the correct order, however, a few play alphabetically. They were copied straight from the CD onto the USB, in one session, so, a little frustrating. Especially so when a few of these NEED to play sequentially.

The other issue is the second disk for whatever reason loads from the USB first. Yes, all I have to do is scroll down and play the first disc first.

Anyone have a solution though on the alphabetical sequence issue?

Re the alphabetical issue - I have iDrive and copied my music from my iTunes media folder onto the usb and found that if I just played the music from the folder option - that is when you select the usb in the car it is the first choice - that all music plays in the correct order for each album and that random also plays OK. However, I did have to remove some 'hidden' files that showed as something like ..01 xxxxxxxx, ..02 xxxxxx etc.
If I try to play the music via the other selections such as artist etc the tracks all play in alphabetical order...

Thanks Mike. I will look into that. Not sure if that is the cause. I play all music the same way, it's just a few albums opt for the alphabetical sequence....
