Default SA616 online internet

hi
I also added 616 and 613 to the FA and only got this far too where it says there is no GSM service available. I'll have to check to see if I have TCU but what needs to be coded there? I couldn't find blood's DIY/thread that was mentioned.

If I still have CPO, I think I have BMW assist subscription so I think I have everything that is needed unless there is some other physical hardware that I need? I am 2008 LCI

thanks

Result is partial success - I'm not sure if ONLINE is available in Holland but I can't get past the "accept" button. When i press it I get this message: tel not available - although my cell phone is clearly connected.

Aside from that - how does one initialize BMW Assist?

You need to have an Assist account which you have to pay for, in the UK it`s £125 per year.

hi Blood,

If this is what you are referring to: BMW Roadside Assistance - BMW North America
then I think I am covered under CPO for another 6months.

Is assist required for just the activation of internet or that service is required in conjunction with your mobile data plan? I am confused how the car gets connect to internet. I thought via blutooth to mobile data plan.

I have called in a tow before and was covered under the program. Is there something that needs activating in the car so it knows I have it or internet recognizes this and connects?

Once the assist service is expires, does the internet automatically not connect as well?

thanks
uki

hi blood,

I am reading up on the connectdrive 6NR and combox $6VC for bmw online BMW ConnectedDrive : BMW Online / BMW Assist I think I am getting a bit confused.

BMW online is part of 6NR correct or different for CCC?

It seems Bruce went with CIC + combox https://5series.net/forums/e60-parts...review-109842/ but I'm not ready to invest $2k euro for this.

For BMW online to work on CCC, I actually need new hardware instead of just software, is this correct? My understanding is combox media/assist only work with CIC... how did you get it to work on CCC? Did you change the production date to trick it to CIC and code in BMW online? If you have DIY somewhere, can you share with me please?

thanks

Hey guys I was trying to avoid having to ask on here, but after several attempts I can't figure out whats going on lol

Today I replaced my factory side mirrors for oem e60 m5 side mirrors. My car is a 2010 e60 with SA430 power folding factory installed.

Prior to installing the m5 mirrors, I had successfully coded my car to auto fold with remote with the factory mirrors.

After installing the m5 mirrors, I lost the remote fold option. I did try accessing NCS expert and repeated the whole process of coding for auto fold with remote, but with no success.

The m5 mirrors do fully function and fold upon pressing the fold button inside the car.

Any ideas?

Thanks !

Assuming you replaced your base stereo just code the new VO id
