My Ride: I have a 2004 E60. It was registered in January 2004. It's a Black Sapphire 530i SE with a few options: - Auto-dim interior + folding exterior mirrors - Automatic gearbox - Bi-Xenon headlights - Bluetooth - Leather interior (Black-Dakota) - Navigation system - business - Service inclusive - Sport steering wheel - Star spoke 124 8Jx18"/9Jx18" + run flats - Top tint windscreen - BMW 6-CD autochanger - Supagard paint treatment - BMW carpet mats

I have a UK spec BMW 530i SE that was built in late 2003 and registered in Jan 2004. It had a software update in late 2004 to try and sort out the Bluetooth kit call quality but that didn't help but I did get TMC on the Business Nav.

The car is going in next week for a major software update. The dealer told me that it would take at least one day and possibly two! Which version of the software am I likely to get?

You're in the UK and I'm not but I'd still say you're likely to get CIP 19.02.

Thanks. Any idea what this might give me? I've mentioned two problems to the dealer that are bugging me: slightly jerky gear change at low speeds and fairly regular side window anti-trap messages. I hope this version fixes those!
