The module in an 06 X5 is a combo Assist/BT module made by Motorola. This will only work in an X5 produced after April 2004. Anything made pre-April 2004 needs to use the Visteon BT module.

So to answer your question, no it can't be done.

No, the Visteon module doesn't have Assist. And the 2003 wasn't equipped for it anyway.

Actually, not that it helps in this case, but BMW did release a service bulletin allowing x5's from 10/2003 to be fitted with the BT/Assist module.
