Hello humans,

Got problem - BMW 530 (2005) and iphone 1.1.4. Pairs fine but everytime i try to dial numbers (from idrive) it shows connecting and nothing happens, even do my mates are saying they can hear me driving, etc. And after that phone disconnects and needs to be paired again.
I guess it's BMW software problem - can anyone tell me which is latest version and how can i check mine? Many thank's

Hi Dont know how to tell current version on your car, however i had the same problem and updated to V30, (see my previous posts) which helped but still not right. I have to pair and unpair each time i turn off the ignition and real pain but aleast it all works as it should including voice. My car 2004 (uk54) 525i SE

Hope this helps

All the Best

I've seen a couple instances where you need to DOWNGRADE your iphone software so it's compatible with your car. Or, you could just dial from your phone rather than idrive.

I had the same problem, but I'm not sure how I have solved the problem.
