Hi,

Having massive trouble trying to connect my iPhone 6s to my BMW followed all instructions and can't even find the name in the Bluetooth section!

I only have the R/T button on the steering wheel and the one the other side which is someone speaking!

Can someone help me connect to my phone? I'm assuming it has got Bluetooth!

Thanks
Charlie
 
On the inside of the door of the drop down storage cubby between the seats there should a button that is the same as the one on the steering wheel , you need to use this button to pair the phone
 
Hi,

Thanks for the reply! There does not seem to be a button there, I presume you are talking about the storage behind the handbrake?
 
Hi Charlie, did you get the iPhone to talk to your car? Mine can be paired, but the system just says waiting. Since the BMW compatibility chart only lists a couple of Nokias, I am guessing a modern iPhone can't work with the 2007 Z4? (I have a 3.0si sport Coupe)

If you pm with your email address me I will forward the original BMW manual pages covering connecting B/T
it will give visual clues as to the hardware if fitted to your car
I have used all models of iPhones with mine and am currently on iPhone 7 works perfectly
 
Thanks for these threads. More useful than the manuals. Got my S7 connected with ease. Is there a way of playing music via Bluetooth through your phone? I guess not without another gismo!!

My iPhone XS Max paired with my 2006 Z4 3.0si no problem
Auto connects when I start the car.
Podcast streaming is via the aux port (installed option)
 
Hello,
Another new member here.
I’ve a 2007 z4 and have read my manual and notes on here and have a functioning Bluetooth telephone. I also found the Aux in port under the dash and can play music through the Aux option on the head unit.
My question is about Bluetooth as well. In the centre console behind the seats is the drop down door and in there was the original phone holder. So.., I presume there is power in there? Did it originally charge a phone if locked in there?
Sorry Bluetooth...,if I have Bluetooth already can I add another unit to stream music? Will they cause a problem with each other?
Or am I just better using the cars existing Bluetooth and aux in for less agro.

Kind regards

Jez
 
Hi All

I have Bluetooth phone kit in my car, but have never got it to work because a) I don't have a manual with the car b) I followed the advice to look on the back of the Bluetooth box in the boot for the code and the label is gone! c) the cables in the center arm rest are mostly (all bar one) disconnected (easy fix)

Question is, is it possible to read the code via Carly or other software to enable this functionality again and ensure I can record the code down for myself and any future drivers?

Many thanks
 
Hi Wegas,

I'm new here and just getting used to my 2008 Z4 Si, it says it has enhanced bluetooth on the doc but I cannot get it to work - no instructions and when I press the R/T button on the steering wheel the business CD radio says no phone. Can you please send me the instructions on how to connect the phone.


Thank you
