My Ride: 2004 545i TITANIUM GREY II on Black Dakota Lthr, Comfort Seats, Sports PKG, Premium PKG, Active/Dynamic Drive, NAV, Winter Package.
Is there a voice command list that you guys can share with me? I cannot seem to be able to enter a complete address on the navigation screen. I get the enter a new address and then the system does not understand what I'm asking for i.e. town, street name, house number etc. Thanks

Thanks Bradley for this list but it does not have the commands for entering a new destination in the nav.

New destination (wait for prompt to ask - "what part of the destination do you want to enter?")
Say "state" or "city" and wait for prompt - "say state or spell city"
It will continue to prompt you through the next levels ending with "do you want to start guidance?"
I've found that watching the Nav screen you'll see what level the system is at AND the talking head symbol will report in text what your response is or should be.

If you say OPTION, the system will tell you all available commands for the sub-menu you are in.

For my Nav it's:
New destination (wait for prompt to ask - "what part of the destination do you want to enter?")
Say "state" or "city" and wait for prompt - "say state or spell city"
It will continue to prompt you through the next levels ending with "do you want to start guidance?"

Prior to my last software update it never asked me this...thanks for pointing it out! Still takes me to the "Audio" screen when I tell it "New York"...must be my accent
Yes, Accents and voice inflection can throw it off. It doesn't help to yell at it but it makes me feel better!
