Hey guys, new to the whole X5 scene. Have a e36 and e39 in the garage but the wife wanted an e53. We found this weekend a low mileage 04 4.8 loaded so we picked it up. One of her first questions was about bluetooth. I have read through many of the posts and it seems that bluetooth wasnt installed until 08/04 units. What I am confused about is the one we bought was produced in 06/04 and there was a bluetooth card in the owners manual. I have searched through the pictures and it has the module in the back as well as the BT antenna, but it doesnt seem to work. There is nothing in the center console but after dissasembling it I found a couple of connections. If I can post pics of what I found I will. What I need to know is what is the most cost effective way of getting the BT to work in her car. We hung the dealership to put the bluetooth in and I specified OEM parts. I dont believe that they know enough about BMW's (acura dealer) to find what it will take. If anyone could tell me what its going to take and approx prices it would be greatly appreciated, and explain to me why its not working in its current state. BT with voice control is what we are hoping to get.

This is what I found in the back




This is the Card that was in the owners manual


This is what was under the center console.


Again the most cost effective way of acheiving this would be great. She uses an Iphone so it needs to be compatable. Any help is appreciated

TIA
Dave
