You might/should get caring car/experience apps.

You won't get auto lane change or assisted driving view.

Great! Did dealer mention anything about recall?

I called my dealer and service agent mentioned there is a recall on the car and booked for a service for whole day. I have booked for next Tuesday. Will update how it goes.

Did you notice any differences? Was lane change available after upgrade or any of the apps?

No mention of a recall and I did not look at the service print out - I was too busy looking to see the software version and playing around with it.

It seems more responsive and the voice assistant works much better. Different app icons but no caring car etc other have reported. No remote start either (must be geographical??).

The ACC no longer applies auto hold after 3 seconds stationary in traffic, which I like. Otherwise I have not noticed much. The iDrive hasnt frozen or needed resetting and just seems smoother and quicker but that could just be my impression.

I am sure there is other stuff but this is all I noticed so far. The valet mode still changes everything to Chinese when activated so there are still some bugs in the software!

My M50i came with 07/2019.40. I can confirm it had caring car / experience and assisted driving view.

While I took the car in today to ask for this update to 07/2019.55, they pointed out a TSB that requires Battery controller reprogramming. I have left the car there for the day.

Yes that's right. Cars that are shipped with 07/2019.x have ADV active.
Cars that are upgraded from an earlier i-step to 07/2019.x only get ADV via esys coding.

UK G05 cars don't get auto lane change period. At least not in the current MY. Again, this can be enabled using esys coding.

I’ve got to get my hands on alternative software in due course. I did email tokenmaster but that option hasn’t come through yet.

I'd go with esysx. Better product at the moment mainly because it's mapped to 07/2019, whereas LP is 04/2018 so loads of trimmed codes.

Just more expensive, but when we are coding £70k+ cars what's another £70

I got my iDrive software upgraded yesterday to 2019.07/55.
  • Caring car and Experience mode apps appeared after the upgrade
  • Other thing I noticed that the car in 3d camera view is more darker
  • No other changes and everything else is working as before
  • My camera still switches from back to front when I change from reverse to drive
  • Can open/close tailgate from button on passenger door and FOB
  • Didn't notice any changes to graphics in instrument cluster
  • Resume function in Stop/Go ACC started working, before upgrade I had to press accelerator/CC up button to resume driving after my car was stopped briefly in traffic. Interesting I told this problem to service assistant before giving it for service and he said the car is behaving as expected.
  • Automatic lane change still doesn't work (disappointed)

Will see if I notice anything more when I spend more time driving and will update.

Did you have to do anything to get caring car app and experience mode? I still do no thave that. Has remote start become an option for you?

Glad the update went well for you.

Thanks! No didn't have to do anything for apps. Apps were already there when I took delivery.

Remote start is not yet available.

Apologies been offline for while. My update to .55 has produced only nice bmw app icons, nothing else - no experience modes, no assisted driving view, etc etc. Dealer seems to have no idea what functions are in what release as bmw doesn’t tell them.

Thanks Lifer, disappointing, does not seem like it is worth the bother then.
