BMW Bluetooth Voice Dialling ...

Hi

sorry I can't search the forums to see if this topic has been raised before at present.

I have a 16g 3G iPhone updated with OS 3.0. Yesterday I took delivery of a new 3 series
BMW with factory fitted Bluetooth, and voice dialling functionality through the steering wheel.
Although my phone pairs with the car and the phonebook updates the car phonebook I cannot get the in car voice dialing to work. When a number is entered correctly, and called up through the system it begins the call but the iPhone display shows 'unknown application' and a big green 'Dismiss' box and disconnects.

On my old car (a 2005 3 series BMW) again fitted with their Bluetooth the voice dialling worked perfectly - at least on the 3G not on the first gen though. It did accept incoming calls. I was led to believe from 2006 model BMW the full iPhone features worked.

Has anyone any knowledge of similar problems? Is there a work around? Who's issue is it BMW or Apple? Or is it just something that's occured since the OS 3.0 update? I have e en today got the BMW Apple iPhone cradle for the car.

Again any help would be appreciated and apologies for not being able to search the discussions.

Thanks

DRS
