Bluetooth

JSP666 · 04-07-2014, 05:47 AM

Hi all – first time BMW owner and first time forum poster. Got myself a 330D on a 57 plate and I’m having problems with the Bluetooth. I have an iPhone 5s and can’t see “BMW****” when searching……have tried turning off and on around 10 attempts now and tried it with an iphone 4s. Looking at various forums it seems the MULF is dead….?

Not really fussed on getting another MULF and was considering getting a Parrot or a Dension kit. Ideally I want to plug my iPod into to play through the system and have Bluetooth for my phone.

Any suggestions on kits? It would be great to be able to use the steering wheel controls via the ipod……wishful thinking.

Thanks

Jon

Sure you got bluetooth capability in your car? It's not a standard option from the older models I believe.

Some cars come with a MULF but bluetooth delete. You can add the bluetooth by running a wire, getting a mic, an antenna and having it programed. Sounds hard but it only takes about an hour.
