Welcome expersignal,
There have been several post requesting and stating how to do it. But, I don't think anyone know for sure other that getting the information from your dealer.
I'm in Germany also, are you close to Darmstadt?

Hey expersignal, I see you are in Ramstein. Yes, Darmstadt is close to Frankfurt, it's about 45 Km south of Frankfurt, where I am...
Spec33, are you in Darmstadt ?

Rudy, I am in the same boat with the phone. Won't sync. It has only worked a few times. I am so frustrated.
Spec33, expersignal - you in 5th Sig? I am an RC Sigo myself. Just finished a year in the sand as well. There is another CW4 on the board as well.

ky_soldier,
My problems with the phone don't end with the "syncing" alone. Once I get the car to see the phone (synced), if someone calls me or if I call someone, they can't hear a thing -- as if my mic is muted.
I've given up trying -- the dealer is ordering some new eject boxes and is holding one for me. We decided to let them fix a couple other problem cars first so I won't have to suffer while they sort it all out. Luckily for me, this phone is a secondary one that I got just to leave in the car. I still have my "main" phone in my pocket for the rest of the time.

My Ride: 2005 545i step, nav, sport, 166 wheels, premium sound, don't need nothin' else.
I'm getting the "new" eject box today with the install of my CPT9000. Dealer tried the old one (didn't work) and had to have the new one overnighted. Apparently one of the BMW field techs hipped the service dept. to the sync problem. I will keep this board posted of any problems I have with the phone.

It'll be nice to know if you can actually use the phone...
