2004 TCU

[04X3]

I have a 2004 x3 that was fully loaded from factory. It has nav, bmw assist (no more subscription though), and a TCU in the trunk. I also found the insert for bluetooth in the owners manual that tells me the bluetooth pass key. The nav also has a telephone option. However, there is no way to pair the phone. It seems like the bluetooth of the tcu is not active, my phone never finds the car. There is no "activate phone" on the nav, not in the first two minutes nor when i hold down the r/t or sneezing man button on the steering wheel. When I click R/T, it says that the phone book is empty. Is there anyway to pair my phone to the car? I read that earlier TCU's did not have BT functionality, would recoding the TCU work (Some have gone this route, I just want to see if It will work with my car).
