But now some days it will work, others it will mute and after a few seconds the sound will resume by itself Not sure what the cause is, I've tested it with hand gesture and also pushing the volume knob in (usually when coming to a drive through I mute so they can hear me) it's super annoying now because even when I push in the volume knob.. it turns back on at the original volume with me doing nothing else. |

Maybe you should try listening to music with iDrive instead of Carplay and then see if the mute/unmute issue gets any better |

I could mute, it stayed muted, and resume when I wanted. I did try futzing with the iDrive for playing music and such, but it's just not as good imho as carplay integration using spotify. If it happens again I'll have to try iDrive and see if that at least works, I have a feeling it's a phone thing mixed with a car thing, almost like the signal to 'mute/pause' coming from the car doesn't reach the phone (playing spotify) ... because the car mutes but I can still see the track timer running up and after a few seconds it unmutes itself again |

I think I've also noticed that if you kick-to-close the trunk, you can walk away with the key fob in your pocket before the tailgate closes all the way. previously it wouldn't lock via proximity if you walked off while it was like 80% closed.
But I just went to get something out of the tailgate, kicked to close and started walking away immediately, since I dont really care if the car locks itself while its in the garage anyway, and it still beeped. |

last week I left the car for servicing and mentioned to the dealer to update it to the latest version is I often face airplay connection issues and he said they left it overnight and updated it, the next day i pick the car and check it and still the same version. I really hope to get lucky to get the update... until then |

If your dealer said he updated your car but clearly didn't because you have the same version he is obviously lying to you. Or he should have said sorry I don't have an update, it wasn't updated. Maybe others forum members from the Middle East can share their software versions for you to compare. The OTA updates can be delayed. Lots of forum members are still waiting. No update available stands for no update available for you but it is for others with the same idrive version. They seem to release it gradually. I see you are located in the UAE. Do you have normal connected drive functionality? I wonder if you can get OTA update. Did you check this? |

did everyone else also lose the tach display thing showing up on the HUD in sport/sport+ mode since the OTA update?
I checked the iDrive menu settings and the checkbox has a tick in it for it to be enabled but I cant get it to show up on the windshield |

i checked again my software version and i am on 11/2019.55 (correction from my previous post). My connected drive seems to work fine, but only when logged on from the browser because there is no connected drive app on the UAE apple store , not sure about android though. |

The software update is for everything except maps. So only addressing CarPlay is not possible. You can also check your map version in the car. You should be able to download the latest maps with the connected drive web page on a computer. Not all dealers have the latest SW version. But 1 year old is very old. |

Latest as reported on the forum as factory or dealer-installed is at least S18A-21-03-525. There may be later available, need to check latest psdzdata. OTA is still on 20-11, of course.

Yes, many folks have gotten the 2020 updates. You are the first I remember seeing that is still on 2019 and is looking to update. Hopefully your dealer updates you.

Hi all. Just trying to get a feel for how many people are still at 07/20.54. I'm in the UK and still on 07/20.54 and showing no update available. Is there anything that can be done to 'encourage' an update? Heard chat about battery charge and driver profile issues???

The policy might vary by region, but in the USA, BMW won't just update software in a vehicle in for service unless a problem was discovered and the problem code triggers BMW to reprogram the vehicle. Eventually, we're all likely to get more updates. |
