Want to add another success story for retrofitting a 2011 GSM TCU, as suggested by Dracon, into my 2008 335i, build date 02/2008. I also put in a 2011 FZD, but apparently the newer cars are using the same FZD part numbers, including the mic.
I didn't even have to do any programming as my S640A Telephone pre-prepped car automatically sensed the new components and the activated Bluetooth module from the donor car, enabling pairing with my iPhone 5 and activation of voice recognition. But the system can't "hear" me so I'm thinking either the mic is bad, or the connections are not seated properly (or maybe I really have to do "some" programming or reset). Will have to check it tomorrow.
FYI, the S640A package already includes the backup Bluetooth antenna. I discovered that after pulling the rear package shelf to install the new one I had purchased.
