Ipod nano not working on 2016 x3

Hello. I know the ipod subject has been touched upon many times but i havent been able to find the answer to my specific question. I have a bmw y cable which ive used on my 2008 3 series coupe to play music on my ipod nano. The 3 series has no problem recognizing the ipod but the x3 does not recognize the device. Does anyone know how to get the x3 to recognize the ipod? The ipod itself is approx a 2004 or 2005 model
