Two easy answers :-
1 : Yes your cars software can be updated, see your local dealer.
2 : The E60 never had bluetooth audio, it has only just been introduced on the F10.

Some times ppl expect too much i think. Im quite happy with my ultimate driving machine and it will be where I want it once I finish the USB port retrofit.

Hi
Here in Denmark it is possble to get an aftermarkedt Bluetooth telefon interface with Bluetooth music streaming also , for the E6x models from 07-2003 and on-wards , try and contact Mobilteknink A/S in Glostrup / Denmark , homepage : http://www.mobilteknik.dk/
It comes as an retrofit set , and need no coding , it "code up" itself to M-ASK or CCC after mounting.

I am streaming audio through bluetooth in my 2007 e60. I listen to Pandora and hundreds of other radio online radio stations. The only catch is that it's not wireless, but it still sounds great and I dont have to mess with ipods (even though I have one hooked up in my e60, havent listened to it in ages) or CD's or GOD FORBID ancient FM/AM radio!!!

I'm confused how you stream through bluetooth and its not wireless? btw isn;t the whole point of using bluetooth NOT to use wires ?
