Professional Phone Voice Dialling
#1
I have just acquired an 07/04 E61 with Professional Phone (i.e. the one that is built in to the car). I do not have the extended voice package - should I still be able to initiate calls by voice dialling?
I have tried but failed. When I press the speech button on the steering wheel nothing happens - no icon, no audible response, dial commands do not work.

Simple answer NO. However it's a cheap retrofit (cheaper than the original option!)
So the standard 'profession' phone isn't really that profssional at all - I can't do hands free dialling on it. How much is the retrofit and where might I get it done (I suppose I could just Google it but if you know where to point me I would be grateful).
