and how do I play my iphone ipod function over bluetooth? I cannot the iPad fine with Bluetooth audio and was able to play music etc from the iPad

Btw. Disappointed with Internet - said this feature is not available in your country..

Thanks,

Hi Daniel, don't worry the engines fine. I take its an auto so just let the box take care of things and stay away from the sport self shift. My dealer said that the run in is about 500 miles and to just take it easy but its more for the tyres than the engine. Fuel consumption will take a wee bit longer to settle down. Mines stayed about constant from 1500 miles.

Not sure if its the same in Oz but the voice control comes standard with option 644 (BT handsfree with cradle in armrest) in the UK.

Enjoy but put some miles on before you let it rip

And congratulations again on your new ride

when your streaming via Bluetooth, can you control it off the steering wheels? and does it display off the Screen?

Bluetooth streaming is a bit limited. You can advance tracks using the steering wheel controls (or iDrive), after selecting the album on the iPod, but it doesn't display any track information at all.

The sound quality though is quite good (my car has the Hi-Fi option).

The black on black looks hot but my last car was black and it just seemed to get dirty so quickly. The silver really hides it but the black still looks fantastic when it's clean. Nice ride.

I got the business nav and it has the voice control too. I suspect it's just standard with any sat nav ordered in oz.

I'm surprised the internet doesn't work but I do believe you have to have it hooked up through bluetooth through your phone. If you ordered the option, it should work. Check it with the dealer if you can't figure it out from the manual. If you have a 3G iPad, I think the tethered feature should do it? Not sure about the iPhone as the bluetooth always seems a bit flakey from what I've seen of friend's phones.
