I have a 2007 530 with the Factory Navigation system. Starting about a year ago, my display screen sometimes would not come on, and just show the BMW screen for about 8 minutes, then it seemed to reboot, and start up. Of course with the telephone, radio, climate control and nav all going through this, it was very frustrating.
Last week,my screen started to simply click off to black. No logo, no action at all. Stays off for 30-60 minutes and then comes on. Other times I start off with no issue, then it clicks off. If it starts and does not work, the SOS symbol cames up on the main screen in front of the steering wheel where the "check issues" symbol usually displays.
When I took it to my dealer a year ago, he announced that it was the control module costing $2000. I bought the Maintenance Warranty, and the Vehicle Warranty after the original warranty ran out, but the service mgr informed me that this is excluded.
Has anyone had a similar issue, and how did you get it resolved? I bought this car new at this dealer, and now have 80K on the speedometer.
