[sblument]

I have a 2006 330i, non-idrive with the OEM Bluetooth capability and fairly original s/w. My current phone is an iPhone 3GS with current s/w and passcode lock on. I've had the phone for about two years. The phone generally works well (make and receive calls, phonebook, etc) but in the past few months I've had this occasional problem:

The phone will seem to connect to the car, and the phonebook works, but it won't make or receive calls. When I try to unpair/repair it from the car, the car won't allow me to unpair.

Fixing it involves the usual rebooting the phone, fiddling with the car (head unit, ignition on/off etc) and then it works again.
