Palazzo 477 Report post Posted August 26, 2019 Is there a simple way of upgrading the Bluetooth on the above? Couldn’t connect an iphone7 to it, showed on the phone, but couldn’t connect. It was connected to other phones, so worked, but not with this. And if there is a simple fix, can you add BT audio as well? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaz 1061 Report post Posted August 26, 2019 Punch your chassis into here and check if its compatible. Can also download bluetooth updates from the website onto a USB and upload to the car https://www.bmw.com/en/footer/compatibility-check.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Palazzo 477 Report post Posted August 26, 2019 I chucked it in there already, said only compatible phone was a Sony-Ericcson(!), but I could see it had been paired to a Galaxy. Maybe the download and USB would sort it. Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NZ BMW 368 Report post Posted August 27, 2019 My E70 works with my iPhone 8 Plus. So surely a software update would work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hugo_nz 166 Report post Posted September 13, 2019 It depends on the iDrive version and by hardware. My e64 645ci had Bluetooth but only to connect to the BMW handset in the center console. Same story with my e64 740i. What's the year model of your E70? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
