I have a 2005 BMW 530 and a BlackBerry 7100t which connect fine via bluetooth. I am able to process most functions, but the phone does not sync phonebook. For the voice dialing the BMW allows you to store voicetags on the system or you could just say the number (dont pause while doing this). The key words are "DIAL NAME. DAIL NUMBER" after you have pressed the speak button on the steering wheel.

Now, to finally answer the original question. I think the problem most people are having is that you are not doing the pairing process correctly. The key code that you use does not matter, the car works with any code. The part that took me a week to figure out, and may be your problem is that after you input the code into the phone and car, you must click the IDrive wheel down and click "CONFIRM PASSKEY". If you just wait the car will not pair.

If you need step by step let me know.
