bluetooth passkey required

el-mansur · #1 06-08-2007, 05:14 PM

I just got a bmw x5 and have been trying to activate my mobile phone via bluetooth. Unfortunately i do not have the Bluetooth Passkey which is supposed to have been supplied with the car. I cannot seem to get this information from the local vendor either. Can this information be given to me via the web and if so what information is required from me.
Thanks

The passkey will beon the ULF in the cargo area - it is a 4-digit code.

I have the same problem.
You can either take it to the BMW dealer and they can hook it up to a computer and extract your code and charge you around $50

Or it is on the ULF and has VK written in front of it.

But how do u get to the ULF ?

That was my install, and I mounted the ULF in a non-standard location. The typical location that BMW places the ULF is down below the CD changer near where the amp is mounted.
