Im going in Monday to get 13.2 put in the car, but Iim gonna find out what version of software is in there right now. I just dont understand how my car could have the wrong software. I picked it up on Dec 1st.

However, I spoke with BMW NA this morning and the person I spoke with said that the dealer is responsible for enabling bluetooth prior to delivery.? Hence, they wouldn't reimburse me if the dealership I went to charged me for the enablement? .? The dealer I bought the car said they would look at it and try to fix it for free, but since they're over 100 miles from me, it isn't really an option at the moment.? The local dealer said BMW wouldn't reimburse him for making the update, and what NA told me today seems to agree with that.? I'm somewhat upset about the dealer I bought the car not knowing what to do however.? It seems like either all of the 05s on the lot would have bluetooth enabled or none of them would if it was their responsibility...

Aside from my rant, the software update is all anoyone needs to get bluetooth fixed on the 2005s though? .? It works out great too.? Spent about 20 minutes talking on the phone and having people stare at me like I was insane and talking to myself.

From what I have been told (from the Service Advisor) V 15 will not be out in Germany until after the 15th of January. He supposedly called Munich while I was there.

I haven't been talking to my dealer for a week, but they were expecting version 15 to arrive at their dealership this week.

In regards, version 15 may or may not reach here for some time after though. Is that right?
