I came here for the first time on advice from someone at Bimmerfest. Was also confused about Bluetooth as dealers all seem to be "Untrained" as to which builds have what and how to. Turned out that all I needed to do was have the correct phone and I paired instantly. (Have a motorolla V-600) Even tried a Nokia 6600 and it paired, but would not load phone book. Looking forward to visiting often and hope to see many more find the X3 sub forum here at x5 World.
