buy the special cable.
https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...h/61122338491/ then pick up a Bluetooth adapter http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bluetooth-A2...38.m2548.l4275 from there I think it may take some fiddling to work, but I know it works. My indy guy does it with his wife's X5. Whenever I see him next I will ask specifically if there is anything else to be done, or someone will chime in before I get a chance to ask, and confirm this all, or complete it.

This is the one I am using and it comes with everything you need. The only inconvenience is that since you are already connected to the vehicle's Bluetooth, it won't connect automatically.

I don't believe the 2011 SUV X5s have Bluetooth audio which this person covers though. I know mine doesn't and that's why there's other options to utilize. Now if you have the SAV, then I think that option is available. Correct me if I'm wrong

I've been using this in my August 2010 production date X5 LCI over an year and it's working great:

Bmw cable + tune2air bt adapter. Will connect to the car automatically and works really well. I've had this setup in my m3 for years.
