It's a by the phone basis. My Palm wasn't suppose to work at all but come to find out it does. However there was one caveat. In order to dial the phonebook in the X the numbers had to be in listed in "Favorites" in the palm otherwise the X looked and looked for numbers to download but found nothing. Does that mean your wifes LG will work? Can't say but there are circumstance where phones that are not suppose to work, will work

the problem is the lg software. i have an lg vue, and the phonebook won't load either. i forget exactly the terminology, but there are 2 types of software - one that will allow access to the phonebook and one that won't. the lg has the latter. at least, that was according to an lg site that i found. frustrating, but not the car's fault. |

I just purchased a 2005 X5. This has the Navigation computer.
On the steering is the R/T and the voice button. On the Nav is the telephone button, I have a plastic sheet listing with the "Passkey" that says: PK XXXXX. I'm assuming that my vehicle has BT. However, when I press the R/T or the voice button, key in position 1, or started. Nothing happens on the screen. am I missing something? |

As the initial pairing instructions are different with different setups, the easiest thing to do would be to rear the instructions in the manual... otherwise I'm sure someone who has that setup and remembers off hand will chime in.

BT pairing issue
I've followed numerous instructions on this board on pairing. I can't seem to ever get the "Pairing" or "Active Phone" display on my MID or cluster.
I went as far as opening the audio compartment, I believe I have a BT antenna, which is mounted on the top of the rack that contains the DVD for the nav. I also believe I have a device thats referred to as the TCU or the ULF. But I'm not sure which unit I have, this was seen after removing (unscrewing) teh black cover just below to the right of the rack. This silver device is mounted sideways on the rack, has a big plug on one end what looks like a UHF connector on the other. I'm at a loss, I'm really not sure whats going on or how to get this working. Any help would be appreciated. |

The dealer should do it for you! I just bought my 2006 X5 and had the phone working including my phonebook in less than 30 seconds. The salesman did it. (Maybe it's cuz I'm a "girl"???)
I have an iPhone if that helps. I've used many Bluetooth devices and it's very phone-dependent. I have a bluetooth device on my motorcycle helmet and had dicey luck with Samsung and iPhone but not with Motorola and Sanyo. I will say, the BT technology in the X5 seems more sophisticated to others I've used. And tell your wife she should get an iPhone, it will change her life!! I look at other phones now and shake my head. I have friends with Blackberrys and they drool when they get ahold of my iPhone. The only problem with getting your wife an iPhone is that you will soon want one! Trust me. |

did you follow the instructions to pair?
you have to press the centre pairing button, with the key in the ignition, then the display says that its ready to pair... the instructions are somewhere, i cant find them at the moment edit - found a post that explains it X5world - View Single Post - bluetooth pairing problem Quote:

If I am correct the OP has a 2005.
The 2005 does not have a Pair button (centre console). So those instructions do not apply in this case. Here are the correct directions. http://www.xoutpost.com/articles/all-...tooth-ulf.html

Previous link worked for 06/05 production 4.4 w/ nav
I erased all the previous bluetooth pairings on my iphone and put it into finding mode. I put the key into position 1, pressed the r/t button on the steering wheel and then entered the passkey into my iphone. It worked. I had to get the passkey off the box in the rear well. This is for a 06/05 production 4.4i with Nav.
