Coding real time traffic

ooshnoo · 06-14-2017, 07:38 PM

Hey fellas...

In the old v1.7 of the F3x coding reference guide there's a section for coding the real time traffic info.

My question is... if I coded this, does that mean I wouldn't have to pay for the subscription from BMWs Connected Drive website?

Would like to know as well

If you look it only applies to cars having HU_CIC.

If your car is a 2014 you should have HU_NBT.

I think you're out of luck.

Hmmm. Looks like you're right. I didn't even notice. Damn!

Real-time & advanced real-time are not the same. The ladder requires an active subscription.

My advanced subscription expired and I don't have any traffic now. Is there a way I can make it only read traffic from the traditional over the air broadcasts?

I have 2014 F30 with NBT. After the subscription expired I still can get traffic info but it's slower. I believe it automatically switched to radio-based traffic info and no need to code.

Hmm 2014 F30 NBT here and it didn't switch over. Not a huge deal since I mainly use Waze, but interesting why it stopped working.
