Newbie and some phone stuff for UK owners
Hi everyone, great site and forum!
Have owned a black 2002 3.0i sport for a few months now. Loving it so far. When I bought the car it came with the GSM phone prep but no phone. It only takes a Motorola V50 so I bought one for £30 off ebay, then called Motorola who put me in touch with: Total Repair Solutions 32 Fountain Drive Inchinnan Renfrew Renfrewshire PA4 9RF Tel: 0141 812 1111 I sent the phone to them plus a cheque for £60 and it came back loaded with the BMW software (meaning it now switches off when the car is off and doesnt run the battery down) - much cheaper than the £300 for the phone pre-loaded from BMW!! Took quite a while to find this out so thought this may save someone else the bother! Like I said, loving the car despite its two trips to the dealer  for warranty repairs (condensation in two sets of headlights, faulty PDC and self lowering windows!!)

I think you have to do it through motorola - I searched to see if you could do it yourself but couldnt find anything which said you could.
Love your 4.6 - if petrol wasnt so goddam expensive in the UK, I would have bought one!
