Dear Andy,
Would you mnd to tell me whether you are able to charge your iphone 3G in your 525i please? As others said iphone 3G can't be charged due to disabled of firewire power. It is because I'm going to order the telephone kit for iphone from BMW soon.
Thanks for your help.

If your talking about the iPod connector in the glove box then I don't think Andy has this as an option in his car but others have commented on here about so you could try searching for it

The telephone snap-in ( if thats what your talking about ) can't be used with the 3G iPhone because the phone physically won't fit in it

Hi all
I have a Nov 07 520d with Bluetooth Phone but not media pack, i got my Iphone 3g today and i don't have contacts either. I'm going to try delete and re-pair a few times to see if it works but i doubt it! :-(

Ben mine took ages (~20minutes) to sync I just did it at the start of my drive home and half way through checked it and it was working now it just connects perfectly everytime I'm in the car.

WOW! I take it back! Set off on a drive today and got the usual no entries message on idrive, just left it and after about 10 minutes all my contacts appeared! i couldn't believe it!
Now when the car starts the phone sync's in about 15 seconds!
Patience is a virtue as they say!
Ben :-)

have a US 2008 550i which has worked perfectly with my iPhone over bluetooth for handsfree dialing from my contact list. I recently upgraded to v2.0 iPhone software and now find that the contacts need to be handsfree dialed by saying "call lastname - firstname" (i.e., call Smith John).
I've tried changing the sort and display options on the iPhone but nothing corrects this problem.
BMWNA Customer Service says this is an "unsupported phone" and offers no further information. Given Apple is aggressively upgrading all 6 million iPhones to this new version of software, and that the iPhone 3G ships with it, this seems to be a bigger problem.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
