Do you think they could update the iDrive so that artists from your iPod are listed like the phone's address book? (Click on the first letter of the artist's name to only list those artists.) It's a real pain to school from AC/DC all the way down to ZZ Top when you have 2,500+ songs and who knows how many artists.
Here's hoping a software update can address this...

all the recent updates in that doc don't go into detail of what's updated. anyone else notice any differences?
Take a look here cuto. New software addresses the turbo lag issue. Car drives COMPLETELY differently. Looks like your 535i was built just about the same time. Software update is totally worth it.

What did you complain about to get them to update the software? I'm on v17.1 and I have eyebrows working, mp3 coded already. I don't know what to come-up with to get them to update under warranty.

I complained about "turbo lag", but obviously that doesn't apply to your 530i. I also had my windshield replaced, which required a software update to get the rain sensor to work.
Try "delayed throttle response"? "Transmission slam"?

That faq is way outdated...

33.X is out now at some dealers dealing with more of the Transmission slam and Lag fix issues on the 1/3/5 N54 cars.
