Update to Road Map North America Way

Shay1128 · 09-13-2023, 12:32 PM

I want to update maps on my X1 to the latest version.

I currently have Way 2018-3 but I see Automatic update:
CAN, AK 2023-1

But I can't seem to update it. Any idea how this can be done?

You have the full 2018-3 maps that have since been updated with over-the-air (OTA) partial 2023-1 maps. The OTA maps are partial with only map changes that come out 3-4 times per year.

If you want to update to the full 2023 maps, then you normally have to pay $$$ to a BMW dealer. There is a possibility that you can download more recent full maps and install it, but it may not work without an FSC code. You can search online for a few companies that will provide BMW maps/FSC for a fee.

Wait, so does this mean I have the update for 2023-1 already installed?

You only get the OTA map updates if you subscribe to Connected Drive after the original warranty expires. I subscribe on my 2018 X1 and it is up to 2023-3 maps.

Did you receive any OTA map updates to 2023?

If you do not have OTA updates, then it is a bit backwards from 2023-1.
