Add Bluetooth?

discoboy1 · 01-25-2007, 01:46 PM

Is it possible to add the bluetooth module? is there any instructions on how to do this? In Canada that option only comes with BMW assist for $1100, I think Assist is worthless here, just want a cheaper way to have bluetooth with the Idrive option.

You can add the Bluetooth module but I would bet you that you don't end saving that much after the installation and programming costs.

And how is BMW Assist a waste of money? You don't have important features like ACN?

From what I heard, we don't have all the features they have in the US like the concierge service and other stuff.

That's true but those features are not included, they are part of the $199/year package. So if you make a comparison of base features etc., it's not dissimilar.

Excuse my ignorance but what is ACN?
