Y cable adaptor?

I just purchased a 2011 m3 and am wondering if there is an adaptor for a Samsung s5? If so, where can I find one?

On a side note, I'd prefer to stream audio via my phone through bluetooth. Is there a way for me to do it this way instead? Listed below are my vehicle specs.

Thanks much!

This is what i'd need for a samsung s5? All I would do is plug it in the center console and I'm Bluetooth - correct?

I have a 2011 and Galaxy S5. Bluetooth no problems, no cables needed. Can't remember what the option is called but yours seems like mine to have most boxes ticked so should hopefully be no issues. Tried to connect BT deviced throught you iDrive at all yet mate?

I have tried connecting through bluetooth and after some reading, I found out that it was not possible until the 2011.5 M3's.

I assume Pandora works?

Thanks for the info on the S5, I'll be ordering one this evening!

Yeah! Attach the bluetooth dongle and pair up with the provided instructions. It does look slightly sketchy, but I rarely every have to take it out, I keep it tucked away in the console. Your phone will automatically pair to the car and to the dongle, so it will appropriately switch between the two when call is received, so no worries there. I've been using it for about 2 years now and no problems. However, when I do come across a problem with it, I just unplug the dongle, "forget this device" on my phone, and re-pair the devices.

Good Luck.

P.S. Depending on the music streaming app/ phone application album art + music info may/may not show up (somebody else may be able to chime in here)
