Someone called my car!

TomDac · Mon, Jan-10-2005, 07:56:17 PM

Driving back to work from lunch today and my radio started ringing and it said "PHONE" on the display.

I hit the button on the steering wheel and said "hello" and there was a guy on the other end. We chatted for a bit about what number he called and he gave me the number and I wrote it down!!

SWEET!!

Does this mean I can get incoming calls to my car thru the BMW assist??

What are the potential issues I face by using this??

Tom.

Yeah, I'm curious too ... is there any way to find out what the number is?

I remember the similar thread! Now that is super cool. I wonder I could get my dealer tell me the number!

the way I understand it, you cannot determine what the number is.

In my case, the number was a 404 area code which is Georgia and I'm in Northern California.

weird.

is this associated to bmw assist or using bluetooth using your mobile phone?

The BMW assist has a SIM inside it with a unique number. Oh wait... I dont have BMW assist!
