Finally i got my car back today after SW upgrade!! it took a week and there r some changes.i got v15 now and accelration got much better, smooth powerful, responds quickly,now the car runs as it should be..(totally different) rite after i got my car back, the steering wheel was so light, so i was little suprised..some people said they get heavier after SW upgrade but it think oppositeway.maybe i drove x3 for a week cause x3's handling was so heavy. there was some changes in i drive also. in communication i cant go to phone menu. Also change is in profile, there was vehicle color and something id(don remember). there were something else before. Noise from steering wheel was gone but only thing i don like after upgrade is RDS is G.O.N.E~~ and im gettng 11-12 mpg.(think it'l be normal soon)
So my conclusion gettng upgrade is totally worth it. i missed my car so much but i got it back so im happy now and feels like driving a new vehicle.. Damn!!!i love my car so much!!!!!! Since i got her back, its time to instal some B&B yeah!!

If you truly have V15, then you probably have to turn RDS on - I did. Go to FM and then select set and its a new check box on the top.

I don't think there are any dealers with 6 series as a loaner, if they do i would rather keep my car in their dealer for a year. Haha

Yeah, dig around a bit because I got 15 and still have my RDS. It is only those w/ navigation that are having ongoing RDS issues.
