Got the car back about a week ago after having the "increased emissions" warning show up again. I had already got v 11.0 installed previously which should have taken care of the problem. According to my service advisor, the vehicle modules were not correctly coded following the v. 11.0 update. They corrected coding and I hope I don't see the warning again.

On the BMW assist not working, the invoice I have says

"Software error in the telephone TCU due to version 11.0 loaded last time in for service. Completed recoding of the complete vehicle module. Re-enabled the teleservice feature and verified the complete functionality of the system. BMW has identified this concern since the release of version 11.0 with addendum software V 11.1 and V 11.2".

Well now all seems to be working fine. Only thing I have to do is sometimes take my v60 phone out of the cradle and re-insert when I first start the car. The service advisor told me this was one of the downfalls of having a non-bmw phone.

All else is great....and good riddance to roadfly, btw.

I have the authentic BMW v60 and I still have to do this with the phone. Even after doing that, it doesn't always work.

Oh, and on the good riddance to RF, hear, hear!

Yes, roadfly is a lot of aggravation and I seldom go there. Life is too short. My wife has the official incredibly overpriced BMW phone and it must be pulled and reinserted at each startup to regain its connection.
