I am having trouble making my voice command on my 535xi understand very much of what I say. When I say "Call Steve", it asked whether I want to call "Christine" - is it true you have to speak with a German accent to have the car understand you, or is it possible to train it in some way?

Not sure if it is the same on the e60, but I had this problem on another car last year. The dealer said that the system "learnt" the drivers voice and that system had become corrupt. The took it in and reset/cleared it and it then worked fine.
