I was wondering if BT was inbuilt in all of the cars, but only switched on if it was asked for as an option or later as a retrofit. I didnt go for it but think maybe i should.
What does the collective think??

At least in the US, bluetooth has been standard on the E60 since MY05, perhaps longer. Nothing to turn on or have dealer program, just pair phone & car.

March 2004 was the build date for including the Bluetooth module, but September 2004 was the official date. If your car was built between those dates, you'll need to upgrade the software to the latest version.
So the hardware was there in March and the CIP version that enabled it was CIP 13.3.
