BMW NBT Evo ID5/ID6 (iDrive 5.0 & 6.0) Introduction & Overview

[@LerimerSantana]

This is something I’d love to add to my f01 2013 750iL. The real question is, if I decide to upgrade my system, will the HUD still work with the BMW mapping system and CarPlay or just with the BMW mapping?

[@mr.kwiktalksboxing7122]

I was about to ask the same thing for my 20011 750LI

[@bimmer-tech]

Please send an email to [e-mail] and include your VIN. One of our team will be able to check exactly what hardware your vehicle is already equipped with, what needs adding, and how everything's going to work after the retrofit. Thanks!

[@bimmer-tech]

@@mr.kwiktalksboxing7122 Feature availability can depend on your vehicle's factory configuration. To be sure exactly what you can expect, drop an email to our team at [e-mail] and include your VIN, so we can check your car's existing setup. Thanks!

i guess Im randomly asking but does someone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me.

[@derrickkayson9467]

@Braxton Makai thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@sickvendetta9]

Been looking for this in depth walk through thank you!

[@fredyamezcua6666]

I recently bought a 2011 e90 m3 and it has this style system not sure how or who did it but it's super cool

[@119Agent]

I want to add it to my E93 but can't find a retrofit kit. Only Android kits.

[@Robert-xv3zm]

Thanks guys for this tutorial!

[@johnnyzarrrriiizony07L]

Very nice , but still bit expensive to switch from NBT :(

[@shafishafi1172]

Veri nice

[@andicampbell8621]

Nice. Clear and concise instructions/descriptions. Got mine today and this was very helpful indeed. One thing I can`t suss tho`. How do I sign in to my profile in the car, using my BMW log-in details? It`s all done on the app no problem. It`s the id6 I think. 2017 730D.

[@bimmer-tech]

Once you’ve downloaded My BMW app from Apple store or Google store open it and: Log in with your BMW ID or create a new account. Define a 4 digit PIN. Press ‘Add vehicle’. Enter the 17 digits of your VIN and confirm. The security code will be sent to your vehicle - you’ll find it in your iDrive’s ‘BMW messages’ tab. Enter the security code and confirm it. Press ‘Enable remote services’. And you’re all set!

I have this for my e92 335i the unit has failed is there a way to just replace the unit?

[@bimmer-tech]

You'd have to consult that with our sales team. Please reach out to them at [e-mail] and give them your VIN number.

[@KortechService]

Question, my Apple CarPlay icon doesn’t show up when I coded to id6 lite. Is this a bug or do I need to enable a code?

[@bimmer-tech]

It should appear once you connect your phone to CarPlay.

[@dreamshifta370]

Can you change your music with the steering wheel - wheel control?

[@bimmer-tech]

Yes, if you have such steering wheel controls it is possible :)

[@nixon4president787]

Hi on my car M2 F87 i find just connect new device Bluetooth. No other options like carplay. Can you help me?

[@bimmer-tech]

Hey! First of all - first you connect to Bluetooth, then the system allows u to connect to CarPlay. Secondly - are u sure your car has CarPlay built in?

[@kennydalgleish899]

I have an F10 UK model with CIC and wish to upgrade straight to NBT Evo ID5/ID6. How much will this cost in £? Can this be installed by a BMW Mechanic

[@bimmer-tech]

Hi, to tell you the exact price we'd have to know your VIN. Please send your VIN number along with your request to our sales team: www.bimmer-tech.net/page-contact. In terms of installation, we have partners that could install it for you. You can check the nearest one in here: www.bimmer-tech.net/page-installers

[@Alec2392]

I recently bought a 2019 BMW 430i Gran Coupe, Ive noticed it has iDrive 6, but doesn't have a full screen ability. Ive checked the software version currently in the vehicle, and it's all up to date. Am I missing something to get the full screen capability?

[@bimmer-tech]

For the full-screen the coding might be needed. Please contact our support at [e-mail] and they will do their best to help you out!

[@rab7287]

Please do a CIC version

[@bimmer-tech]

We'll let Chaz know next time he gets his hands on a car with a CIC system ;)

[@rab7287]

BimmerTech Thank you!

[@deriushill4389]

Do this work with 2013 535i I have the smaller radio for some reason

[@bimmer-tech]

We could only tell that by your VIN. Please enter it here and you'll see whether you're 100% compatible or not: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-nbt-evo-id5-id6-navigation-system-retrofit

[@sechszylinder8055]

If I upgrade my F10 equiped with NBT to NBT Evo, can I get a picture of F10 in vehicule status menu ?

[@bimmer-tech]

If that's what you currently have in your NBT head unit then you'll have it in the NBT Evo as well.

[@rssek]

I have a 2019 430i xdrive. It has Idrive 6.0. How can I get full screen carplay? Thanks

[@bimmer-tech]

Hi! You can enter your VIN at www.bimmer-tech.net/bmw-idrive-coding/ and look for the 'Full Screen Mode for CarPlay' option. Thanks!

[@hectornevarez6804]

Can you also play your music via Bluetooth without using CarPlay?

[@bimmer-tech]

It depends, we can check that, just send us the last 7 digits of your VIN.

[@mehdi08300]

the new unit is plug and play ? Or we need new cable ?

[@bimmer-tech]

NBT EVO ID5/6 retrofit is really involving retrofit that, at times, requires quite a lot of new parts. This depends on your car’s configuration. Please reach out to our sales representative to find out more.

[@anthonymelhado8824]

ugh! I want this so bad. I have an android one but it's not that great with speed and being able to even really use the tiles.

[@bimmer-tech]

Then don't stop yourself from buying it ;) But please check your compatibility first: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-nbt-evo-id5-id6-navigation-system-retrofit

[@CararataGuinea]

Why I can't se the mirroring option on my Idrive Evo 6? Thanks

[@bimmer-tech]

The mirroring feature is available only for Android Devices. Every BMW equipped with NBT EVO ID5/6 has this feature from the factory.

[@ebbahbaah7715]

i HAVE a G30 can i upgrade my idrive 6 to 7 ?

[@bimmer-tech]

Hi, we don't do iDrive 7 upgrades as of now, so unfortunately we can't help you with that.

[@Twichblade]

Can you upgrade from 4 to version 5,?

[@bimmer-tech]

Yes, we can. It would be a full hardware retrofit.

[@craig0852]

Does it feature Android Auto?

[@bimmer-tech]

Hi Craig, NBT Evo ID5/ID6 features Android screen mirroring. To have Android Auto, you have to order Android Auto MMi Prime :)

[@Whatevername74]

does this support screen mirroring for ios?

[@bimmer-tech]

Unfortunately, no. It features Carplay instead. We may offer a different mirroring retrofit compatible with your car. Please send the last 7 characters of your VIN to [e-mail]

[@Whatevername74]

It is possible to get the NBT Evo ID5/6 with the touchscreen but the compatibility depends on your vehicle. You can enter your VIN here (www.bimmer-tech.net/category-nbt-evo-id5-id6-navigation-system-retrofit) and check if touchscreen is on the list of additional options.

Yeah but you lose your HUD and Sirius Sat..... Deal breaker for me....

[@bimmer-tech]

OEM HUD works with our head unit retrofit. When it comes to Sirius Satellite Radio it is an additional option that you can purchase.

[@bimmer-tech]

DAB can be unlocked ;)
