See below for the cable I bought, and while it will sometimes (but rarely) lose the connection temporarily, it has otherwise been pretty solid.
Same deal with our MINI, sometimes they just drop.
I've found that rebooting the device (we use an older iPod Classic in both cars - mega storage for our whole music library) while STILL connected with the Y-cable re-establishes the connection.
Y-Cable with Video P/N 61122344300
Note the actual Y at the junction - the AUDIO only cables just have a rectangular junction.
FYI, various iterations of the Audio only cables have the following part numbers:
61120440796, 61120440812, 61122338491, and maybe more.
If you need a Lightning connector, good luck, as I've heard that these are REALLY hit and miss.
Best bet in that may be to use the above 30 pin VIDEO Y with a genuine Apple 30 pin to Lightning adapter.

That's the exact one I have though? I'll take a photo later - and I use an official lightening adapter
