I'm guessing it is about Comand APS showing POI on the map, address info including telephone number that one should be able to call? I haven't even tried that. On my GPS enabled phone I would just point the POI icon and press dial, perhaps you have to select the icon and find the details.

Did you have the phone properly connected, calling otherwise working?

I think they are saying they used to be able to look up a location in nav, say, the dealer and dial the phone # stored in the nav with the cell hooked to teh car.

I tried this on my car, I can get the POI details visible, including the phone number but I don't see any other way to call this number except dialing manually. I did not look at the user manual though. I wanter if the original poster is talking about the same car, where it was first possible but not later any more.
