Need advice: 07 e90 w/SOS,TCU. Want BT to work
If this has been covered, I'm sorry but, I can't find the info.. I have an 07 e90 with premium package, SOS(disabled) With BT antenna, FZD mic installed and a BT TCU installed.. But, no BT menu appears on the HU. Is this something that needs to be coded at the dealer? Or, will I need upgrades and additional parts? Part number of the TCU is: 84.10 9126533-01 Motorola, BT 0018A4ECDC96.

Is Sos disabled or just not subscribed to? If nobody has messed with it as in installed aftermarket stuff it should work with just programming . And you should be able to get a coder to do it. It will only give you Bluetooth Phone though. Have you tried to pair a phone does the phone icon show up with the menu button? http://www.e90post.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=368 |

So far as I can see, no aftermarket accessories have been installed. And, I believe the BMW Assist has just lapsed.. The head unit doesn't display any Bluetooth connectivity menu, so I presume that the system just needs recoding to operate. All I'm looking for is to be able to handsfree the phone.. I have other plans to stream music, such as the Airplay module gadget.

I have this manual and, it only covers how to pair a phone to the existing Bluetooth menu which, doesn't appear on the headunit of my radio. I am wondering if the fact of the BMW Assist lapsing has deleted the Bluetooth menu from the HU/TCU.

So if you press the Menu button there is no telephone
So if you press the Menu button there is no telephone icon?
I have a lapsed Assist with pro radio and it doesn't turn off the bluetooth phone. I would suggest doing a Vin check of your car with the free Vin checkers you can find on line it will tell you what was installed and activated out of the factory. |

That is correct. The TCU has the Bluetooth symbol but, no PK#, and the head unit doesn't have a telephone handset icon when the menu button is pressed. Although the car is equipped with a Bluetooth antenna in the drivers side footwell and there is a mic plugged into the overhead console aft of the SOS button.

The SOS system is a cell phone essentialy

Check the Vin for the bluetooth option you should have all the hardware you need. I don't see how they would equip a car with SOS and not have bluetooth phone enabled to. There is a list of option codes in the coding sub forum sticky. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=717103 mine came with premium package I think its included in that package.
