Should my 545i with a 07/2004 Build date have BT?

I can't find in iDrive.

Do I need new software or a module?

Software is all you'll need to get things working. Actually, you might already have the right software version but the dealer may never have performed the actual software retrofit process.

Take a look at the BT service bulletin from March 2005:

Thank you for the information.

It says in the document that customer has to pay it.

Does that mean I have to pay for the update to a newer software and the ADD PHONE proceedure or just the ADD PHONE labor?

How much do youthink it will be?

You should be ok (Not have to Pay for the retrofit) on your 07/2004 production date car. It looks like the cut off date was 03/2004.
