Newbie 1st time bmw owner

Hello. I recently purchased my first BMW, it’s a f30 330d xdrive. I am so impressed with it.
The only (small) disappointment is that I have no Bluetooth audio I know there are many many posts covering this which I have trolled through without joy. I have now been advised that I need a firmware update. Any suggestions on best place to go for this?

Thanks

My vehicle does not have Bluetooth audio (base system from early 2013). An alternative which works well is a library of audio files on a USB drive in the console. I have about 4,000 tracks on shuffle on a 32GB Sandisk UltraFit, which barely sticks up above the USB socket. I rarely hear the same track twice.

you may be able to code in the bluetooth option if you have a combox, as per the video above.
