I've got a 2006 BMW 330, which I'm reasonably happy with. Anyway, I recently bought an iPhone (after checking bluetooth compatibility on the BMW website). As predicted, I couldn't get the damn phone and the car to talk to each other so I took it to my local BMW dealer and a chap had the thing working in about 30 seconds. It lacked some menu functions but hands-free was fine, which was what I wanted.

Then this week it stopped working. Today I took it back to the dealer who couldn't get it to work and she said that only 2007+ models are compatible. I asked why did it work fine for two months, and she said "it was just lucky". I though "how the hell does luck have anything to do with it?" anyway, this evening it fixed itself and now it's now fine.

Any ideas?
