Daylight savings automatic time issue
Did anyone else not have their BMW spring forward automatically? I have it on automatic time change and proper time zone.

I just learned you have to switch off the auto button and back on then it updates. Touch the clock on the upper right and it takes you to those settings

2024 X5 M60i with iDrive 8.5. Yesterday, without any action on my part, the time adjusted correctly. Today. however, it reverted back to standard time. I used the toggle off then on method to get it to update. Waiting to see if it again reverts to standard time.

Mine was an hour behind and then when I tried to change it to Central time zone, it kept changing it back to Istanbul! I finally just changed it manually.

In my case the Auto button was off and as soon as I enabled that, the time was updated

how’s your cellular signal at home when parked? if low/spotty, it’s quite possible your vehicle may have trouble communicating with the server to update its time automatically |

while DST rules are fixed (starts on 2nd Sunday in March and ends on 1st Sunday in November), I don’t think I’ve come across any clock in my lifetime that changes back and forth automatically without being connected somehow. IOW, clocks that change times automatically require some type of connection (atomic, cellular, etc) |

I stumbled on this accidently, just toggled it on and off while saying, "Hey, let's go." Worked for me.

y’all should report this iDrive 8.5 bug having to toggle just to reset the time properly to DST even if set to AUTO. I’ve never had to toggle anything in the 3 years I’ve owned my 45e that runs on iDrive 7

Mine would not let me select the “automatic time setting” checkbox so I had to manually adjust the clock forward by 1 hour.
Any one else unable to select the automatic time setting in Idrive? |

I had posted about this in another area yesterday, my M60i was having the same issue - it had the correct DST yesterday morning but when leaving work it reverted back to Standard Time.
I had to toggle the automatic time update off and back on and it corrected it. It did keep Chicago as the city - that didn't change. The M60i is on iDrive 8.5 and the M440i is on iDrive 8 - and it had no time change issues at all - updated automatically with success. |

Never have since I got it and have crossed many. I always have to uncheck and check the box to have the time update.

I don't think there's a way to report bugs... hence the reason why this software is full of them.
