after calling my dealer today again since my monday appointment was canceled due to no software yet, they called BMW of NA & were told that V14 is NOT yet ready for release, as they are currently reworking & bug fixing it.


i guess that is a good thing ... as we might have some chances of NOT having the same or worse issues.

maybe you had received an updated & reworked version 14 then ICEMAN?

FTM is too sensitive in 14 - fixed in 15.

There will ALWAYS be bugs.

It's software. There is no such thing as bug-free software in this world.

15 is on the way. AFAIK it's still on the way to the German dealers too. Should arrive this week at the German dealers.

-- thats somewhat of a given - i'm sure they are trying to make it so that it will not lose the heated rear function ... or such.
