My Ride: 525d SE
Help me please!
I have an 525 SE with no phone and have fitted a pro sat nav from an E63 and it all works except for the voice activated part i have fitted the microphone and wired it to the ccc (Pins 1+6)
But when i press the voice ativation button on the steering wheel nothing happens do i need the twin button in the center console or do i need to program the unit or is it because the car had no phone / bluetooth option?
What parts do i need to add the BMW phone ?

the bluetooth is in a separate module in the trunk. if you don't already have it you'd have to buy it and figure out that retrofit. Mine had it, so I didn't have to do that step.
To get the voice activation to work, you will need to program the car. Same for the bluetooth.

there are two separate microphones- one for the voice recognition for the sat nav and a separate one for the bluetooth phone kit.
