I have a 520D with CIP 25. But its a manual so is this question relevant?
I think so, yes. Mine is manual, I have resisted chipping it because of the on-going saga with the Turbo / ERG which is allegedly cured with CIP25. Did you have the stuttering from 1600 to 2200 revs problem before chipping? Did the chipping cure it and / or did the CIP25 do any good?

Mine is still so slow below 2500 revs it is embarrassing, my g/fs 1.9TDi Audi A4 would blow it into the weeds from low revs. My 5 Series is the only car I have ever had that needs to be in 4th gear for so long but they don't seem to think there's a problem and to be honest I'm too busy to be bothered to take it in and show the tech again. I must try again but only if CIP25 makes a difference.

No, I mean when you turn engine off and remove the key from steering lock, usually, radio has to shut down.
On my situation, radio shuts down when I turn engine off, and immediatelly re-opens when I remove key from lock. It happened twice today

Yes, this is not the same thing. I am starting to wonder how much testing of new releases BMW is doing. Every release seems to minimally have some odd stuff wrong with it. Maybe they need a beta test program, but I'm not sure I would be getting in line to volunteer for it.

My apologies in advance if this topic has been covered already but can anyone confirm what effect the V25 upgrade has on the Business Nav, i though i read somewhere it adds a map functionality instead of just the arrows?

Is the radio the last entertainment mode when you switch off the car ?
... if you're listening to a CD and shutdown, what happens ?
