My Ride: Jan 06 Delivery, 2006 550 Sport , silver gray metallic, clear bra, black leather, step, active steering, comfort seats, logic 7, Nav, head-up display, comfort access, satellite, anthracite trim and headliner, M-body kit, electric sun shade, split fold down rear seats, Hard Wired BEL STi Driver Radar/Laser Detector.
I got in my 550 yesterday morning and noticed my I-drive had reset itself and I lost my radio stations and some other presets. A month ago I had a CIP update and now I notice the car is not as smooth from a dead start and the throttle also feels a little jumpy. And, of course the CD continues to advance a song or two after the car is shut off. I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing these problems.

Just had the CIP updated 2 weeks ago because the voice commands weren't working----- the cd still continues to play after I shut the car off.

I have some issues w/ i-drive (slow boot and response), jumpy throttle and transmission. I had it in the shop for leaky fuel pump and related parts, and was told I have the latest CIP!?
Also thought fuel pump was replaced, as stated on the invoive, until I got a call yesterday telling me the fuel pump finally came in. But that's a subject for another thread

So its not normal for the iDrive screen to show BMW for about 30secs before going into the lawyer screen? Because i noticed this in my 550i. It only does it when i park it somewhere for a long time.
