Newbie Question, Z4 2004
 

Hi Guys.
I am about to purschase a bmw z4 2004 with nav.

It has maps on the flip up screen and is controled by what looks like a cd player with a knob on each side.

there is a a place to put a cd dv (not sure which) in the back on the middle of the armrest.

Which unit am I running?

Can it play mp3s?

Can it be modded to do so?

Can i burn my own maps dvds?

Any idea how to get a lets say garmin map an convert it to the bmw format?

Also does it have Bluetooth?

Not sure where the nav computer is on one of them mate, but it could be between the seats.

2004?? probably a mk4 dvd rom drive, you need to find the version number of the OS to be sure. (normally you press menu then set (or settings), and look in the top right hand corner, it will have a number that will look like 4-1/50, something like that).

The dvd rom can't, not sure about the headunit (but I doubt it).

No, you could get an intravee and use an ipod though.

Yes, as long as the source is compatible.

No, not possible.

BT was an cost option, so unless you have the telephone option on the menu screen, then no.

I will have to check as iI dont hhave the car yyet.
But for the tetelephone part, how difficult would it be to rretrofit? Cost?

Doesbit have a auxiliary cable?

Yeah the computer is between the seats

The Z4 uses the same nav, audio and BT system as found in the E46, E39, MK1 X5 and MK1 X3.

It uses a BM54 tuner in the back for the FM and audio. You can google for BM54 Aux In.

The MK4 nav drive has DVD logo under the disc drawer.

There are many BT retrofit threads for E46 and E39 on Google. Only US cars came prewired. You will need the BT retrofit harness It will cost about £600 with used parts.

There are Parrot CK3000 E46 BT threads, and a new Connects2 BMW BT kit.

There is also the DICE Mediabridge and IntraveeII.

OK.

Don't now about OEM retrofit, but I would say alot.

I have a DIY retrofit for the e46, it may be of some use, [E46] Custom DIY OEM Bluetooth install, For thoses who don't want to donate a kidney - The M3cutters - UK BMW M3 Group Forum

Again an option, so you will need to check the original option sheet, but assume not.

Send me the VIN and I can find you option sheet.
