HOLD UP!

The premium sound package (which you want because the base system sucks) comes with ipod integration. Without ipod integration and with out premium sound, I THINK...you get one usb port. It won't work with the ipod via cable.

I am guessing that since you are getting tech and premium package (premium has the Blue tooth) you will get the ability to wirelessly stream audio from your iphone to the X5 but please chack with your dealer before altering your order.

As for the the iphone integration, the only reason to get that is to get better reception. It uses the antenna on the truck for signal rather than the iphone's built in antenna. If you reception is fine, skip it.

There is no bluetooth audio streaming of music if thats what you were asking for. Bluetooth is only for making phone calls.

What you talking about? Yes, there is. It was introduced in 2011 MY. Its part of "BMW Assist with integrated Bluetooth", option 639. The older style Telematics Control Unit (TCU) has now being replaced with a newer Combox, with additional capabilities. One of those is Bluetooth audio streaming (A2DP). Not only can you stream audio from your phone, but you can control the tracks and the ID3 tags are displayed.
