Yea so your pk is 5553. What is the problem.

When I go to search for my car nothing shows up. I have the DROID x and it shows that it is compatible. I have tried all possible pairings by holding buttons down while turning the key over to the pairing positions. Still nothing.

You don't have blue tooth. You have Bluetooth for BMW Assist, but the module isn't for telematics. The production date 04/2005 is too early I believe. Bluetooth didn't come over until 8/2005.

I have the same problem. There is a TSB out with a range of production dates for us owners to ignore the PK and the code card.

Not sure where you find that Droid X is compatible, and it might be, but I can tell you for sure the Droid X2 is not compatible. We have 2005 X5 and the bluetooth synched fine with several prior phones, but not the Droid X2. Upgraded to a Droid Bionic and that phone works fine with the X5.

If you search bmw USA you can find all phones compatible with your year make and model along with the features it can provide. Also I had a 2005 BMW 330ci w/ Bluetooth and it paired with no problems.

I'm not sure you are accurate, here's the pdf of bluetooth compliant TCUs. Looks like the compliant builds started in 2004.

I would try another phone....and/or validate your pairing procedure.

I would like to reawaken this thread, I recently noticed that my car does not have a BMW Bluetooth antenna, I followed some wires from my Bluetooth and found that they go to the armrest where there is nothing but cables, looks like it for an eject box. The other cable goes to my dsp. After searching online I noticed that the blue tag on the TCU is for the Bluetooth antenna cable which should be mounted on top of the components. I purchased the antenna today and I just need to find a cable. I will keep all posted on the progress.

I'm having an issue pairing my iphone5 as well. I hold the RT button and all I get on the cluster for is "no phonebook" or something along those lines. My car is a 06/04 production car so I've just decided to assume that the phone is either to new or the TC is outdated.

Mediabridge is my only option for bluetooth it seems.

Gotta have a 10/04-up build date...plus premium pkg and/or BMW Assist option...see the bluetooth availability chart below:
