I was bored, so I tried it. I didn't have one of the matching MX versions, so it only updated the TX telephone software. Everything worked afterward, don't really know in the 15 minutes I drove the car afterward what changed. Seemed like nothing. iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1. M3 is a 2011.5 with iDrive, USB, bluetooth, and smart phone integration.

OK, quick question on this software update. I am trying to do this and have downloaded the file from bmw.com/update. When I try to update my car it says something to the effect of the software is not appropriate for the system. The file that was downloaded is named UPD01004.bin. What am I missing?

Yes, it is a Sept 2010 build w/ the combox... The bmw.com/update site requires a VIN entry to determine what options the car has and therefore what software needs updating. I enter the last 7 of the VIN and it gives me this file to download...

Updated mine today. Not sure if things changed or not. I've been having cradle issues and was hoping this would help but it didn't appear that it did.

Can I ask you what file you downloaded from BMW? Was the extension .BIN?

Thx, Technic. The file that was downloaded from the BMW site is already named UPD01004.bin, just wanted to make sure that was correct. And I have it in the root directory of the USB drive. Will give it several more tries...

Tried your file multiple times, still no joy... Thanks for trying! Not a big deal, not having any connection issues with my iPhone so I guess if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

You enter in the last 7 digits of your VIN on BMW's web site to see if your vehicle is equipped with the correct hardware.
