BMW professional radio Bluetooth install

[@charlkoopman4885]

1:30 deliberately covers the FM antenna port, 2:15 eventually exposes open port (which was obviously kept out of frame) then magically finds a loose FM antenna cable (supposedly 'Bluetooth' antenna). A good waisted 8minutes. Houdini in the making!

[@johndeerebam7]

This is why getting rid of the dislike button sucks.

[@Gophacyerself]

Your old Radio was already Bluetooth ready, as e90s are plug and play for extra modules up to 2011 I think. That means you just needed the controller. Hence the phone button on your original radio.

[@conwaew]

Hi, what controller would I need?

[@alexandert4252]

It's easier (and cheaper) to swap to used 2011 head unit with bluetooth in it than getting that module (for the trunk), harness etc....

[@Frapop]

If I don't have such a screen and I have a 2012 116i model and I can only set something on the radio and I have a phone button on the steering wheel, do I have Bluetooth?

[@alexsfetcu946]

man thank you for this video ! i was looking exactly for this

[@augusta6972]

Can I do same in BMW 2008 381i

[@Bad-Company-US]

1. Do the buttons on the steering wheel work with the new radio? 2. Can you stream music via Bluetooth from your phone to the radio? Thanks!

[@lukko000000]

If you have yes. No you can't. Only with iDrive you can stream audio.

[@freshnesbro3792]

@@lukko000000 i though this version has Bluetooth inside?

[@princemaisela7907]

How easy would it be to instal usb port in the armrest glovebox? my f20 only came with aux and oh, no idrive..please make a video :)

[@AzzaM1983]

Hey. I have business cd and it’s terrible I want to swap with the professional unit. Will it swap in no problems ? Like will I still keep my parking sensors etc ?

[@mraaaaaaa]

Why on earth would a radio unit affect parking sensor functionality????

[@memyselfandi1825]

@@mraaaaaaa That's how you control the volume to the parking sensors, the radios play a huge part in the computer set up in new cars. All part of the parcel.

[@daye1997]

It is easy replacement, but it is just for phone calls. You can get cheap 6.2 inch touchscreen Apple car play for that amount of money. Right?

[@nbentes]

which one?

[@tolgasultankaya1608]

Nix verstanden , was hast du da jetzt gemacht ?

[@williamwan6121]

Hello, Thanks for the video looks really straight forward but does that mean i can just swap out the old professional with the new radio which supports bluetooth to make telephone calls? I mean do i have to purchase a microphone to be plugged into the car? Any links for the new radio? Many thanks! Will

[@VilmosBoda]

Hello! Did you ever find an answe to this? Thanks!

[@willz16]

@@VilmosBoda unfortunately not but decided to leave the radio as it is and install a parrot instead

[@delboy2596]

What did you do for the telephone microphone?

[@ronaldseroka3163]

Can i add Bluetooth on a bmw professional without putting Bluetooth dongle?

[@beneslife3694]

Can i also Listen to music if i connect like that

[@nmilland1219]

Hello just to confirm if the existing radio has the phone button all I would need to do is remove that piece?

[@alanbressler9464]

Olá amigo como habilitou a função USB no meu rádio profissional da BMW 2011

[@SonOfZeuz]

By where is the microphone

[@germancarfan360]

Hi, just spotted this vid! Handy tip on fakra connector removal, just tried and failed to fit new head unit to my e92, its an lci 2011 unit into my 2007 car. My current radio has a dodgy screen, once warm you lose all display on lcd. I couldnt get my new unit to sit fully, and thought it was cable!! I will try this mod. Question, your bluetooth, you didn't connect a microphone to it at rear?? So the other caller could not hear you yes? What was your solution to this? My car currently has mulf module in boot, with factory bluetooth, but new unit is bluetooth built in, how can i sort this to plug mic into new head unit??

[@ronniepolk3872]

just did everything in this video, and I still cant connect my Bluetooth and talk on the phone through the car, what am I doing wrong

[@miro_o]

I think he replaced the radio unit with a later generation one with integrated Bluetooth chip. Yours probably still relies on the Bluetooth module box under your boot floor. That module has a lot of issues. It’s usually referred to as MULF if you want to google more on it.

Hello, Is it enough to just replace CD radio to new one? How about microphone? Should it be additionally installed also?

[@skimarion]

is this another Radio, or the same just removed cap ?

[@danielsday2474]

Another

[@trucutbarber9091]

Can someone please put a video with instructions and proper sound. Completely lost first 2 mins

[@delboy2596]

So am I correct in thinking you just change the head unit for one with telephone bluetooth and it works without installing any other parts?

[@ВзглядСверху-т4з]

Yes, this is a replacement for radio with Bluetooth and USB www.ebay.com/itm/172485087030

[@delboy2596]

Many thanks for the info and video.

[@marcoantunes4231]

Can you tell us wich reference does this new unit has?

[@chrisembleton624]

@@ВзглядСверху-т4з a previous owner already changed mine. I unplugged it to try and work out why the cd changer didn’t work and now the microphone doesn’t work. Any ideas? I’ve checked it’s plugged in ok.

[@floridabukasa4919]

How you do it

[@Gameplays-ld1ns]

i have lt but i can’t play music through how do i fix it?

[@lin-qj9qk]

I can’t play music either

[@ВасяСибилев-ш9э]

Как это зделать?

[@brehannasmith4566]

Hey I have a question regarding the phone cradle found in the armrest. Are you at all familiar with this?

[@ВзглядСверху-т4з]

Hi, what question?)

[@brehannasmith4566]

Взгляд Сверху so I tried removing the phone cradle. I had a hard time with one of the connectors so like a genius I cut the wire smh. Now I have lost my USB, aux, and Bluetooth functionality. Also there is an SOS error on the dash. Also I'm having a popping noise coming from back speakers. I don't really know what to do. I've checked all the fuses nothing.

[@fernandofgg]

This radio dont use security code when turn off the battery?

[@lukko000000]

no it hasn't.

[@markburton337]

Would be better with sound

Omg this tool

[@funkmasters]

Music not necessary

[@reign994]

Complete waste of time. BMW professional radio all come with Bluetooth for calling only not music. Not sure what the point is stripping the antenna plug. Unless you already had a faulty one and need to show how to plug back in

[@jorgecarmonamoreno7131]

pues si ..tampoco lo entiendo ..yo creo q todos bmw profesional llevan integrados el bluetooch

[@grahamnutter8577]
