All it takes from there is the engineer putting the powertrain bus/ECU on the same network with the Bluetooth adapter.
As I posted below, my Saab's engine control unit can be reprogrammed by splicing a few wires onto the CD harness. That means the audio network can at least access the ECU. I don't have a Bluetooth adapter on my car, but if I did, I'd wager it can access the audio network...
Good point. I'd hope the regulatory system will require that systems that can make the car move be totally isolated from any other systems, but who knows.
...Assuming it works as advertised, there are some handy features, including the ability to remotely lock and unlock the car, fire up the climate control, see how much gas is in the tank, look up in Google Maps where you left you car, and check if the lights are on.
