Hi bichoo, Glad to hear its working for you.

For some unknown reason when I log into the Connected App I can see that my 440GC is connected but it says the following for my X5 "This vehicle with no BMW Connected+ subscription may not support all features". Therefore none of the features on the App work including Remote Start.

Did you delete the 2016 X5? That's what it says for ours that doesn't have the upgraded Connected Dive like our M2 and 230.

Look at the bulletin on the Remote Start and they talk about a retrofit...what's that a software update LOL.
Thanks for the updated order/pricing guide. All three (Essential, Enhanced and Excellence) packages are raised by $500.
BUT
Interestingly if you read the last line for Enhanced and Excellence, still shows as the original price (no $500 increase) if taken with 5DM (Parking Assistant) as compared to 5DN (Parking Assistant Plus w/ Surround View)
Not sure what that means.
If a software update is truly what enables remote engine start (as some on this forum have already shown) - quite the money grab by BMW to charge $500 for newer customers.
What happens to the package price for those vehicles produced prior to March 2019?

Yesterday, I did stop by Endras BMW to check something and I was chatting with the service manager, he showed me the bulletin for the software update t. I was run through my VIN and it's cleared to do the update but some of the VIN are referred to PUMA (who will not get this update)

Not that it makes a difference for me because I just ordered but for those who won't get the update the attached Bulletin says all vehicles prior to March. Stick it to them. We are paying too much as is.

Mine has been updated and the remote start now works according to my service advisor. However, I told them they can keep my vehicle and I'll keep their loaner until BMW releases the update to correct the steering twitch... which is apparently still weeks away.

What? Ur going to drive a loaner instead of the X5 for weeks? I got the steering twitch too once but it was only after driving off in extreme cold.
Given that there is no firm date yet for the fix, i'm just surprised that you would drive a loaner instead. The twitch is that bad for you i guess eh?

The colder the weather the worse the twitch gets, and it's cold in AB for the next couple weeks. I haven't actually driven my G05 for nearly 3 weeks now because of the freezing temperatures.

I think it's complete nonsense that BMW NA has been aware of this for many many weeks and has no solution, so I'll gladly rack up the miles and rock chips on a loaner car until they sort their crap out.

Any steering issue is a safety concern, and if everyone with this problem took the same position and refused to take their G05 back until its fixed, I'm sure it would be more hastily addressed by BMW. At this point, costing them every day with a loaner is the only leverage I have with them actually fixing the problem.

I didnt realize you were in AB..ya in that cold I can't imagine. The little time I experienced it, its downright dangerous. Well kudos to you for being patient!

My dealer refused to acknowledge the twitch. Do you have anything that proves it?

I think they get it free.

So I asked why the car went up by $1,000 and they said it was attributed to the $500 for remote start and the $500 for 5DN Surround View.

Anyway, I got it all resolved and they ordered the X5 today. Lets hope some of these bugs get ironed out.

The weather is getting better in Toronto. I doubt they are going to accept the steering twitch issue.

I already reported steering twitch on mine and they can't replicate the issue

My dealer didn't have to replicate the problem, BMW Canada has had an open case on this issue for quite some time according to my service advisor. They all know about it, but just don't know how to fix it.

My dealer was able to see the issue, and submitted a PUMA case.
