Nov 19, 2013 7:56 AM in response to wegrasby eadesr,Just to make things more complicated. My father has a BMW 530d with a similar iDrive system (system MN-002.017.007) and my iPhone 5 would connect to that car.
My systems however with (ME-008.008.000) will not recognise my phone.
So this is not just a BMW issue, it seems to be an issue for this version of the BMW iDrive operating system.
I assume therefore that i need to wait for an BMW update rather than an a Apple update?

Jan 6, 2014 5:41 AM in response to eadesrby xranastas,I got my new BMW 116d 2 weeks ago and my iPhone 5 iOS 7 can't connect at all with the car. The Bluetooth works fine ( telephone use) and of course I can charge my mobile via USB port. But no other functionality is working and I was supposed to be able hear music, right? I honestly can't understand who to blame for this. Is it apple or BMW? Or is it me that don't have the BMW apps. On the other hand I have read that iOS 6 was working, right?
