Bluetooth is an option in the UK even if you have nav, are you 100% sure that it is included :idunno:

Congrats on the car :)

friend of mine bought an X1 and when he ordered he asked for the nav with bluetooth and was told by the salesman that if he goes for the professional nav,this will be standard which was not the case!

he managed to get this done via a 3rd party company (sort of retrofit) and dealer had to pick the cost up as he wasn't happy.

you need to select a few different things on the configurator to add bluetooth with nav (can't remember exactly what though).

^^^^^^^^^^^

I went through this crap when ordering my iS.

I was told I could not now have BT without the NAV?!?!?! (My last E89 had the BT option and I don't need nav). Apparently they had changed the options.

I even phoned BMW to make sure my dealer was correct and they were actually rather rude about this and just kept saying "take it up with your dealer" (I had ordered the car and he called me in a panic about the BT).
I even confiqured the car online and yet BMW themselves to me "you can't have it talk to your dealer".

Well guess what? I got BT without the nav. Seems to have been a bit of a confusion somewhere with the ordering system at the time.

Didn't like BMWs customer cares attitude at all. I was only making an enquiry :headbang:

Turkish BMW distributor is kinda crap; could you please check in your countries that is it fixable now? or late for anything :( ?

its bothering me much more than lack of BT system; Two keys both i dirve and steering wheel TEL buttons doesnt work so lame :( so what will I control with Voice control ? Sales guy doesnt tell even you bought VC but this car doesnt have telephone even.

Even bmw germany dıoesnt have an answer for this; They made a wrong informing configurator;
Go try by yourself in uk website ; When you buy navigation it erase blletooth preparation

And ı asked to seller guy he said its standart in navigation; Damned dumb people all over the world;
German configurator maker; Turkish seller; its not my fault BT missing :((

The funny thing is retrofit kit is not working with z4 made after 09/2010
ı am still on it... :headbang:
