Please! A way to bluetooh music from iphone?

yalag · 09-30-2014, 08:01 PM

My 2009 M3 does not come with the ability to play music via bluetooth. It can only make calls with bluetooth. I can plug it into the middle box via usb with my iphone and play music.

Is there something I can buy to make this work with this car?

Search "Combox retrofit" if you want the factory solution. Or look into the Tune2Air WMA1000 for a cheaper alternative, which may incidentally offer more functionality. The latter will require the USB+AUX to 30-pin dock connector cable (aka the Y-cable) that should have been included with the car. You do NOT want the WMA2000, nor can you use a regular dock to USB cable with the 1000, since those require digital audio over USB support, which BMW didn't offer until 2011.5, the same time they launched Combox.

Use this in my 08 and it works good, and you can control the tracks through the Idrive.
