The good news is that the Voice Control activation is now possible. The bad news is that it costs 500Euro!!!

 

Patryk, this news is definately a little bittersweet. I'm very excited to find out that Voice Control codes are available given I've used this feature with my old CCC for some time now and would love to have it enabled on my CIC also. Having said that, £500 is a bit of money just to have this enabled. Any chance of a group buy for those of us who already have the CIC mod?

 

The price is driven by the cost of the FSC code, which I have to buy for each vehicle separately and which costs almost 500Euro.
I can try to negotiate the price with BMW if I have a few people interested but it won't change that much (still in the 400-500 range). I have already asked them for some discount but the FSC codes are in a very low-margin group, so there is not much I can do about it

 

No worries, I understand the logistics of all this Patryk. In the coming weeks let's see how many guys are willing to sign up and weather BMW is willing to cut us even a bit of a break.

Thanks for the update.

 

I emailed you Patryk. I have always been upset with myself for not getting nav. Looking forward for this one. Thanks.

 

Nelson,

I have a non-nav 2006 E61, would this work and can I get Nav and keep my BlueTooth? I'm about an hour south of you in Melbourne, FL.

 

what about navigation map update? Can it be done at a local dealership?

 

You should be able to buy an update at any BMW dealership.

 

I wanted to ask how much this would be for my car, but I cant seem to get PM to work. How much would the whole kit cost for a M-ASK 2006 e60?

 

Send me an email at info@modyfikacjebmw.pl and include your VIN.

Patryk
