Gomac, by TMC problem, do you mean the fact that the car finds it hard to find and keeps losing TMC signal?

My dealer just told me that they will updating my software to version 17. I have not heard anything about Version 17 before. Anyone here has update theirs to version 17 yet ? First time they tried updating, my service advisor told me that it crashed so they have to keep my car for a few more days? ..

I've paid $50 at first. But still unsure whether i have to pay later on.. , My is actually due to be done this afternoon. Hopefully nothing will go wrong again. And i will re-confirm with my service advisor about the software. I still can't believe it is Version 17 though.

soc_fan, it should appear on your workorder. Go check out the Word docs I posted in this other thread, they are my workorder showing where the software version is listed.

I dropped my car in this AM but they couldn't tell me what software version they were going to install - Said they have no control; whatever was downloaded overnight from BMW. They are also doing seat heater recall as that was in the system as being required for my car.

I got an E46 330i courtesy car - no charge even though I didn't purchase my car from the same dealership. Seems quite nice but I had trouble figuring things out with all those buttons and knobs. Also notice that it is a lot smaller than the E60.

I don't think even V15 is available in California...still 13.x


And I don't understand why any state, let alone California would be behind the rest of the country for software updates. My understanding is that all downloads are done directly from BMWNA, so shouldn't everyone have the same access to the same versions? Or, was I misled by my SA, who clearly knows less than anyone on this board?


Quick Reply: New Version 17?
