Updating iDrive version
Hello.
I checked my VIN on the BMW page, and it said a software update was available. Looking to the PDF, it looks like I can download version UPD11024 (https://static.bmw.com/content/dam/b...PD11024_en.pdf) Annoyingly, this doesn't really say much - it looks like most of the fixes are for Samsung S10 phones so I am tempted to just leave it as it seems to work fine on my iPhone (CarPlay being a bit hit and miss). My F48 2018/11 Model has iDrive 6. Is there anyway we can upgrade to iDrive 7? Is it even out yet? Bit difficult finding information online on what can and cannot be done. |

I dowloaded this and loaded it into the car. It only took a minute or two. I have a Samsung S8 phone so may eventually upgrade.

Just updated mine too.
I've never done an iDrive update (vehicle build date May 2016) because a) everything seemed to be working and b) I was concerned doing so may wipe the Carly coding I've done. This update has worked OK, my iphone contact list seems to be loaded via BT to the vehicle faster, and the few Carly changes I've made are still there. |

Had the update, too!
Strange thing though that my previous version was different than the ones mentioned in the pdf file. Moreover I also got an extra line item... Why is that ? Before the update: After the update: |
