2005 BMW 325I - Have had NO problems with cell phone, bluetooth, or radio since the car was purchased 1 yr ago. Suddenly yesterday the radio panel reads ''PHONE'' and that's it. Cell phone will not connect, cannot listen to radio or CD. I deleted the device pairing (as it wasn't working), to start over from scratch, now I get ''No bluetooth device found, try again''. I've tried and re-tried, same response.
In first instance try to disconnect the unit from the mains and reconnect 15-20secs later 8 times out of 10 it helps. otherwise you might need to reprogram the unit processor which is more complicated and requires knowledge and understanding of electronic principles, assembler, also some devices to perform the task.
Otherwise I'm not sure about exact model of your ECU (computer) but in some cases it also gives the access to reprogrammable radio unit, so in this case laptop, one simple program (u can find it as free downloadable .exe file) and special diagnostics cable wuold sort everything out. But as I said not all ECUs offers such an option. And if you'll go for this step you need some knowledge about electronics and soldering as you'll have to build the cable I mentioned, as tu purchase one would be quite painfull for your vallet.
Hope it helped although if you need any further information just drop a line here.

Thanks guys, I'll have to schedule an appt with the dealership.
u will need to pull the radio and send it out for repair at an authorized BMW radio repair station.
The Bluetooth on my 2007 Disco 3 is not working. It does not show up when I search for a device on my phone to pair with. I can only assume it is switched off in the car? My phone works fine on Bluetooth with other devices. Thanks
Can not pair to my phones
