Excellent info ... I just made a service appointment for April 4th, for which I noted some lingering symptoms of periodic engine pinging, cold idle fluctuation, and slow response to i-drive inputs.
Hopefully these will unquestionably lead to Progman 25.
Thanks Cobradav!

I'm going to Field's BMW ... I won't know what they have until I talk to the service manager on April 3rd when I drop it off that evening.
I don't know how the updating works, but I presume it's a download process, so the dealer doesn't actually recieve a CD from BMW like other parts. Right?
Can anyone chime in on how this works?

If someone can access bmwtis.com, he/she might be able to find out if Progman 25 is loadable. To be safe, call your SA.
