F30 pre LCI bluetooth audio

bmwdiag123 · 01-26-2021, 06:09 AM

I have recently purchased a F30 2013 320D sports model. I guess it has CIC head unit and it has bluetooth calling facility and all. But I cannot enable bluetooth audio for my connected devices. Is there any way to enable it via coding or flashing?

Search the forum for "EBT coding" or "enhanced bluetooth" and you'll find a walkthrough of how to code using an Ethernet-to-OBDII cable and a laptop. I coded EBT on my 2014 F30 three years ago and it wasn't too difficult and was totally worth it.

Get the Bimmercode app. It's been updated and most of the parameters are human-readable now. Definitely use Ethernet-to-OBD cable and adapter for your phone, much faster reading code pages than the BT/wifi dongles.

And yeah I did this a couple of years ago, but it's time to install the Carplay MMI.

I have the exact same car as you and I have the Nbt headunit. I used bimmercode to activate ebt... Just follow the instructions in this link and you'll be ok
