E92 Voice Command List

So my 335i has voice control, which is a pretty cool feature but utterly useless if you've no idea what to say to it.

After some searching on the tinterwebs I gathered a list of valid commands, turns out there are a heck of a lot.

Apologies to the original authors but most of this list is unashamedly copied with pride, however, it should now form quite a comprehensive list.

I haven't tried all the commands, but they should work for any E90, E91, E92, E93 (i.e. E9X) with a CCC iDrive module, (I've also made a list for Non-iDrive cars at the bottom).

CCC = Car Communication Computer

• Fitted to 3-Series E90/E91/E92/E93 manufactured until March 2007

CIC = Car Information Computer

• Fitted to 3-Series E90/E91/E92/E93 manufactured from September 2008

The full list is included below, but I've provided a link to a printable cheat sheet too.

If you forget a command, you can say "Help" to get a full list of valid commands. On each individual menu screen you can say "Options" to get a list of valid commands for that particular iDrive area.

Note that some of these commands required a software update on the earlier cars to enable them. Some of the navigation commands may be region specific too.

Those of you without iDrive (but with Bluetooth functionality) have a rather slimmed down list I'm afraid, it also only works for phone operations.

Non iDrive

“Correction”
“Delete”
“Delete Name”
“Delete Phone Book”
“Dial”
“Dial Name”
“Dial Number”
“Help”
“Quit”
“Read Phone Book”
“Redial”
“Store Name”

Let me know in the comments below which commands you find most useful, and if you can add to the list.
