I wanted the iPod installed which forced a CIP upgrade. I was on 16.x and now am on 24.x.

When I turned on the car just after the service I noticed the Idrive screen appeared to have some kind of interference which caused the text and graphics to 'shake' and look blurry. Extremely annoying. BMW says they will fix it but had no idea. They said that the iPod install does not touch anything on iDrive so thought maybe it was software problem?

Anybody come across this?

Thanks,

-- JM.

Nope. In fact I just picked up my car and was upgraded to 24.x from 18.x for a new M-ASK unit as the single in-dash CD player was acting up. No problem with the appearance of my iDrive screen...

Thanks ABC, interesting to see. Only had the 10 minute drive from the dealer to work and did not notice this issue but now I will pay more attention on the ride home this evening.

I've seen this too, I also have 24.X and it only happens when you start the car and it is almost unnoticeable or does not happens all the times
