I've read through hundreds of posts, but am still confused if this can actually do bluetooth, what those capabilities are (answer calls, voice control, a2dp?), and how to upgrade/enable them.

The parts guy at my dealer looked up my VIN and said since it lists no Bluetooth Prep option code, there's no way it can be installed. That was before I discovered the MULF2 (what is a MULF2 anyway? I keep seeing it referred to but have never seen it explained) with the BT logo on it, or I would have pushed him further. The dealer printout shows Satellite radio prep, USB/Audio interface and 'telematics access request,country-spec' if that makes a difference. Both the steering wheel and radio have a phone button.

I'm new to all this, so appreciate any help or pointers to newbie info you anyone can provide. Thanks!
Your MULF2 can be swapped with a Combox kit (antenna and mic included) and that will give you Bluetooth and a slightly better 6FL (can use the Apple white USB cable instead or the OEM analog cable).

No A2DP is available in any Professional radio unit, even with Combox.
