See if this helps.
1) Press the CD button near the iDrive knob.
2) Scroll all the way down on the source list to "Bluetooth (audio)"
3) Your iPhone should be on the list if it is connect via Bluetooth
4) Press the Option button under the iDrive knob.
5) I don't remember the exact lingo, but it should be something along the lines of "Configure <iPhone Name>"
6) Make sure the Audio box is checked
7) Your iPhone should then appear as a Bluetooth source under External Devices
I tried this on my 2012 5.0i and could not get it to work with my iPhone 4S but wonder if that is an iOS5 issue.
