Question about Connected Drive
Can anyone tell me if BMW assist is built into every F15 or do I need to get the enhanced Bluetooth option as my dealer is telling me. He says I cannot use the iPhone app if I do not get enhanced Bluetooth, but from the BMW website it appears all I need is an active BMW Assist contract. I really don't want the clunky snap in adapter taking up my storage space in center console.
Any help is appreciated as I already placed my order and still have a littel time to make additions. =============================== MY BMW REMOTE US FAQ 1. What are the requirements to be able to use My BMW Remote US? You must have an active BMW Assist™ contract, a compatible mobile device with a connection to the internet, and a vehicle capable of using the remote services of My BMW Remote US. Please refer to question 2 for more information about applicable vehicles. 2. What remote services features are available for my vehicle? The list below provides an overview of the available My BMW Remote US services and applicable vehicles.

My pleasure, buddy. I definitely recommend calling BMW Assist back with this information. My dealer didn't set anything up for me at all. I set everything up through BMW Assist because I really wanted to use Send To Car application - much like BMW Remote, it requires the BMW Assist login information. Sadly, we all know how big companies work. You will get a great person who knows what they are talking about that can assist your properly or you get some person who knows absolutely nothing nor cares.
