Hi everyone,

2006/01 build BMW 530d Sport, Business Navigation (not Pro).

I've been trying to pair my N73 properly and it just won't stay connected. I've upgraded the phone software. It finds the car, I enter a pin ... on the car it sees the phone, I enter the pin there and it accepts. After that the phone bluetooth symbol ( turns on and off intermittently and the car won't receive a call. I asked the question in the General Forum and someone said the N73 works and that a cradle is available. My dealer in Sydney, Australia, said that the N73 does not work with the car and that a cradle is not available. Who is correct?

My mobile phone pairs happily with my PC and my headset, so I know it works. My wife and I both have N73 phones and neither will connect. I'm about to try another type of phone on the car to check that.

Has anyone successfully used the N73? Can you provide step by step instructions?

Will a car software upgrade fix this? I'm running version E060-06-03-0510!

Also, does the iPhone work with the E60? We are thinking of upgrading to those.

Thanks in advance ... pulling my hair out ...

virgil, out!
