      Older generations had a card that came with vehicle which had the passkey. You might want to stop by a BMW dealership and have them do a key read and they should be able to retrieve the passkey from the vehicle history.

      The compatibility of a 10-year-old car might not be 100% with the current cell phone software. You could have some conflicts. Might want to stop by the dealership and discuss with them.

      Turns out the new Iphone6 isn't compatible with the new BMW, I was told by BMW they didn't get the iPhone info any sooner than retail ppl did. On occasion you can still pair one before the software update comes out. With BMW "genius" people's help I was lucky enough to pair mine, they say I was lucky. :)

    Hi Scott, I have a 2013 BMW 328i and the Bluetooth won't work with multimedia and even the cable connection with the USB port to my phone won't play music and would only charge my phone. I updated the software to the new one using my VIN from BMW's update page. The website says that it should support multimedia Bluetooth and USB audio but after updating mine, it still doesn't work. Is there something I can do to make it work?

    • @ScottBMWSmith

      @ScottBMWSmith  7 років тому

      +Sidney Idemudia There is a lot of variables with your situation. Your car is a Canadian vehicle, which phone are you using ans what cable are you using. So I'd recommend if you are in Canada to go to your local dealership.

    • @sidneyidemudia8809
      @sidneyidemudia8809 7 років тому +1

      I'm using an iPhone and the iPhone charging cable. I went to the local BMW here and they looked up my car's details using the last 7 digits of its VIN and said the car is not wired for that and I can't get an aftermarket installation. I feel something could be done about it because the downloaded update with my VIN says the software should permit Bluetooth audio and cable.
