Hello, Thanks for the video, The website seems to have completly changed. There is no option to enter VIN and check for sofware update anymore just a bunch compatibility nonsense they wrote there. No option for vin, no link for download. been on their website for hours through your link and other youtube tutorials doesnt seen like there is any info out there. Have they stopped this? Have a 2017 G30 on Idrive 6 which am sure doesnt have remote update. Any help will be appreciated

Hi Titomo, my BMW is hybrid and when I press ignition once it does not kill the power complete and it remains as standby. The aim here is turn off engine completely so ECU is rebooted.

@@APTechs strange, my maps are not up to date cause my street is missing but when i go to the website it says my software is up to date. is it possibly because it's a different model? it's a LCI 640d, and when I go through the My BMW app it says it would cost me £49 to update the maps for a year.

To install satnav if it did not come with it from manufacturer, you will need to purchase as ad on from BMW website if your idrive is compatible. I would thought all BMW from 2011 should have satnav from baseline.

You may have accidentally deleted the retrofit coding you had by restoring original. You can restore from Carly again if it saved a date on the ECU back to what it was. Alternatively you can get CarPlay from connect drive app if you have previously purchased this service.
