It is BMW Evedrest IBUS US / Motorola unit. It seem like it was installed at the production time since the made date of this unit is 20.05.2004.
The production date on the TCU is prior to the availability date. What is the build date of your BMW? That may be more telling.


Plus, BMW had a major screw up back in 2004...they even wrote in the owners manuals that there was BT connectivity...but it was incorrect. See the last pic below and the text highlighted in yellow.
