Hi @BMW-X1MAN,
My understanding is that it only works if you have "Speed Limit
Assist", which needs camera based "Speed Limit
Info" (included in both driving assist packs).
So if you don't have Speed Limit Info (i.e. if you don't have 5AS or 5AT), the limit you see on your dash/hud will be taken from your SatNav.
I can only presume that the feature is disabled because those numbers could be unreliable (on variable speed motorways for example, SatNav says 70mph, variable sign says something else). But I'm just guessing here. It could just as well be a marketing reason. I really wouldn't know.
There is more on this here:

bmtespar I don't have any info about the US models unfortunately. Even the button layout on the steering wheel is different for you guys.
