Ipod classic and bmw vehicles

I can not seem to get my new Ipod Classic to be recognized by my 2009 BMW 335i using the BMW Y cable. It worked the first day I had it but has not worked since. Does anyone else have an issue like this?

Try the Hard Reset, while connected to the BMW stereo dock.

Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
