Bluettoth Help

Hi all, recently and sporadically bought an 07 plate X5, on the steering wheel there are two buttons, one a telephone icon and the other a face with sound waves, these don't seem to do anything? and can't seem to connect my phone so now not sure if this has Bluetooth!!!!!
Is there any easy well to tell?

Thanks

Sorry, to re-phrase the question, is if these controls are on the steering wheel, surely they must do something? They do not seem to do anything at all!!!!!

you are probably missing modules/components for bluetooth which was an option back in 07, not standard feature.

Thanks, are the buttons of no use on the steering wheel then?
Can I have the modules added? or will this be expensive?

Sounds like you are describing the buttons for voice control.

If you use the idrive controller, can you find bluetooth in the telephone menu? If all else fails, everything should be in the owners manual.
