2019 X5 -- Instrument Cluster Dead
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I have a service appointment tomorrow for a camera issue, so I guess the timing is fortuitous. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks. |

I've had the center display (instrument cluster Nav, B/C settings) disappear, and rebooting didn't correct. Turned car off, wait, back on and problem resolved; hasn't recurred. 2020 40i, formerly v7/2019.53 iDrive 7.

I attribute to the usual BMW imported German gremlins - happened on a previous F15 as well, same correction. Now on v11/2020.70, so hopefully the software is more stable. Guarded optimism (the update did fix a camera alignment problem on mine).....

I have the camera alignment issue too; I've had a number of updates, up to the most recent as of 2 weeks ago, and it has not fixed it. It is going in tomorrow for a new camera.
iDrive 6 is much more stable in my experience (I also have a 2018 540). My 2021 M550 is in production now and the one thing I have qualms about is iDrive 7. |

I had an issue with my G30 dash going blank, it related to a 3rd party carplay activation via USB stick that I did. It was intermittent and took a battery disconnect to reset it. So basically was a software glitch causing the system to lock up and not launch the dash component.
In the end BMW had to replace pretty much every component of the dash module/controller , stating that one of the controllers wouldn’t even recode/program, needless to say I purchased carplay from the BMW store and stopped fiddling. They had the car 2 times to correct the fault, no idea how much it cost as it was done under warranty, I obviously mentioned nothing about the USB carplay activation. Nothing to see here, move along |

We were recently upgraded to 07/2020.XX (I don't remember without looking) and wonder if it is related. |
