Hi,

does anyone know if the new apple iphone is compatible with my bluetooth in my E60 520D 2007? I have a sony ericsson K800I which works excellently and transferes my address book to the car - will the new iphone do this??

Any help would be much appriciated.

Thanks

Just pair it to your car thru Bluetooth and you will be fine. No interface needed.

I have no luck on pairing my iPhone with my car... Mine is 1.1.1 version of firmware.
Anybody experiencing the same thing?

2006 530i and 1.0.2 iphone - Works perfectly.

I'm curious about 1.1.1 iphone not pairing, because I'm thinking of updating the phone to 1.1.1 (no hacks or 3 party apps on my phone ), anybody else? Thanks.

I think 1.1.1 has trouble with bluetooth but 1.1.2 just came out today or yesterday... might want to wait for a bit.
