How to tell if 335i has bluetooth?

bimmertt · 09-08-2009, 03:14 PM

I'm looking at a used 335i but can't tell if it has bluetooth or not. The car is about 3hrs away from me and the used car dealer does not really know much about the car except that it has the sports package. I noticed in the pic that the steering wheel has a telephone icon on it. Does this mean it has bluetooth? Also, are there any obvious ways I would be able to tell if it has premium package? I know you can tell by looking at the rear view mirror but are there any other indicators?

just ask the dealer if it has 3 buttons on the mirror and an 'sos' bmw assist button. You've talked with the dealer, right?

yes, the dealer does not have the car on the lot right now and it isn't a bmw dealership so the salesman was not too familiar with the car.

I'm still trying to figure out what those buttons on the steering wheel are.

Look primarily for the SOS button in the center headliner trim... the 3-buttons in the mirror are only for Homelink and it does not mean that it will have Bluetooth; only in the Premium Package both the Homelink and the Bluetooth Assist are included together.

Just open its mouth and take a close look at the color of its teeth. One caveat -- it would be inappropriate to do this is it is a gift BMW.

SOS button, or, you can just push the button on your steering wheel. If you have it, you should hear a beep or something tell you that you havent paired a phone.
