07/2020.45 with NO Android Auto
Hello Everyone,
Does anyone else have a 2019 US spec 40i with software version 07/2020.45 and does not have Android Auto installed? It doesn't even show up as an option. My service manager states that it's not available yet. I'm pretty sure I've seen several members here that I believe have US spec cars with this software and have it working so I'm wondering why my 40i doesn't. I'm just curious to see if anyone is going through the same thing. Thanks! |

Supposedly you might need to give it some time to be 'pushed' to your car. It might take a week or two.

I wish that were the case but it's been close to 2 months now since Idrive was updated. I've updated apps many times as well and even deleted my profile and reset everything to factory settings and started from scratch and still nothing. Thanks for replying!

My guess is the BMW backend doesn't think your car is eligbile for AA. Reasons can include wrong region, model, istep version, subscription.
At the minimum I'd be asking them to do a complete dealer connected ISTA vehicle test. That should draw out any issues in the operations report. At the same time it will update BMW's backend with your car's FASTA data, if for some reason it failed when you were upgraded to 07/2020. If the backend doesn't know you're on 07/2020 it wont make AA available. Software update in idrive wont help with this unfortunately. The only other thing I can think of is if the backend still thinks you have limited CD services due to your stint abroad. |

Did you get this sorted out?
Got the same issue. After OTA 07/2020.54, my phone (Galaxy S10) on each car start starts "Looking for Android Auto..." but nothing. Menu item not there. Phone did not do this before this OTA. Definitely sees it is there in the car, but car is not responding, nor giving me the Android Auto in menu. Another weird thing is before this update, in Store I had the option to buy "CarPlay Preparation", which I never needed (don't use iPhone), but now this option is disabled in store for my car. Something weird happened with this OTA and I can't figure out what. |

Most likely not your situation but if I get mine working I'll post here the resolution. |
