jksanford,
i got a pdf bulletin when I ordered my car in March that said that as of that timeframe, BMW would no longer install sat. prep in any cars with NAV because it was incompatible.? They said that there would be a software fix for the problem around this time of 04.? So it seems amazing that you actually got the sat. prep. with NAV.....
I had heard a rumor that maybe those cars that had NAV also had some kind of prep incorporated into their system for Sat. and this might have allowed the retrofit at some point.
I was told by BMWNA that Sat. is available for cars now but only if they have sat prep installed. But they can't tell me if my car has it, or not.
Any progress with your car would be great to know about.....

kigerka,
my car was also built in may 04 like yours. When I ordered it, I asked for sat. (not just prep), when they came back and said it was not possible. My 'sticker' from the car had no sat. lised on it. Is it still possible that it could have it?
