Yes it can be done. From my experience with iDrive 5 and 6 cars with CarPay, issues are really rare and no more than any other platform. My 2016 G11 has CarPlay and it works exactly as it should. Only issues I have had is that few times, Waze map has been black when being brought up to full screen. A quick reconnect of phone always helped. And this is an iOS issue, not iDrive.

In general the CarPlay integration has been done properly from the factory and it's not some aftermarket hack, so reliability is as good.
