I hawe bmw x5 and with nev iphone 5 I cant conect to stereo system.
iPhone 5, iOS 6.1
i have a 2012 328I and i can connect my iPhone 5 fine using bluetooth - did you turn bluetooth on on the iPhone - did you go through the pairing process on the BMW?
I not talking to talk on the hands frre thats fine.
Problem is to play music.
ill try that - ive never tried it - but would assume the blutooth has to be on for that too
it doesnt work on my 2012 328I - i can get it to where no sound comes out of the iPhone but it doesnt play through the car speakers - ill have to check the owners manual
i think you are correct - i can get the phone to think its playing music from the car speakers and thsu be silent - but no music comes out of the car speakers -- im going to go by my BMW dealer and see if they can figure it out
