I have just got a new Huawei p30 Pro mobile phone. Using the button on centre console and putting car in pairing mode my phone cannot detect the car. my previous Huawei and Google phones all pair up no problem. Any ideas. My car is e53 2006 X5 with factory sat nav unit

    Morning Steve

    Is the BMW Bluetooth memory full I believe they only allow 4 phones to paired at a time, there is a procedure to clear down the bluetooth memory try this.

    1. Press & hold the button call button (the one with the face profile on it), then after about 3 seconds turn the ignition key to position 1 and release the button after approximately 3 seconds. "BLUETOOTH PAIRING" appears on the display or monitor.

    2. Press the button again for approx. 10 seconds until you hear a triple acoustic signal. "PAIRED DEVICES DELETED" appears on the display or monitor.

    3. To conclude the deleting process, turn the ignition key to position 0.

    Hope this works

    PS. Bluetooth is turned on on your phone ?
