Since joining this forum I've noticed that members mention upgrade 15.1 or 14.9 etc. in messages and topics. I understand that BMW do updates from time to time but where do you find out what version you have personally? Is there a website that caters for this? And do you have to request an upgrade or do the dealers arrange it automatically? Lastly is it just a wide screen thing i.e. nav pro?

1)
Only Your service rep can tell You ver. number

2)
In here You can find information about different versions (serch)

3)
Request update only if You have problems or for some new installation e.g. aux input. And like Iceman says:"don't fix what is not broken!"

4)
It's thing for every e60

Hope this helps?

if you are willing to pay, you can request s/w update every time the new version has released. but most of us will tell the dealer some known s/w related problems and have them install the new, upated version under warranty .
