I also need info on compatibility of phones with my 2006 750i. The bmw website is worthless.
Called the dealer, they don’t know, and called the national customer service number with no luck.
The car came with bluetooth when I bought it new and have been using a blackberry with no
problems. After typing my Vin # into the website it tells me my car does not have bluetooth. National
customer service said “sorry”.
Would like to upgrade the phone to a new 4G Samsung Windows phone or a Droid. Help!!!!

Hi,
I have an 08 550i that I ordered built with the bluetooth kit from BMW.
The phone (Motorola Backflip) is tempermental and chooses when it will work and when it won’t. It rings at times and when I pick up from the steering wheel, the caller is not heard over the BT system. This forces me to grab the phone. Other times it will work and there seems to be no pattern of logic with this thing.
I am also having to turn of the BT often to reset it and get it to work.
Is there a fix for this problem short of buying a different phone?
