I talked to my dealer again and got different response. They said that the car/customer has to have some issues to warrant an upgrade. This is consistent with the advice I've read on this forum.

I have no idea what does that mean or which additional features were added if any, and where to look. Just wanted to do software update before i start coding with Bimmercode. I drive 2019 50i. Don't have Driving Assistance Professional Package, 2-axle air suspension and DHP. |

I had an OTA update installing the geofencing app for PHEV (e drive zones app) It activates electric drive once you are within a city. The list of cities is updated OTA too HV battery charge is regulated according to the trip you planned and the city centers you cross. |

I noticed I am able to plan a trip (multiple destinations) in the connected drive app and to add a destination as a favorite.
I don't know if this is new in 03/2020 or if it was available in idrive 7.0 anyway. I wasn't able to do this in my 6GT with idrive 6.0. I could just search one destination plan the route and send it to the car. |

Is it in CarPlay mode in the Idrive configuration?You can chose between I drive mode (CarPlay doesn't show) or CarPlay mode for your phone. I think I drive is the default so probably set back to that after updating.

Just be carful because I have heard some have had difficulties reconnecting the phone to connected drive after removing it (not receiving the activation code) and needed to call the CD and I don't know if they work on sundays. |

My installed apps disappeared after the upgrade. Rebooting and reinstalling apps didn’t work. Any ideas?

I saw this in the ordering guide: some new features for the 45e:
"From summer 2020, the above-mentioned plug-in hybrid models will also be fitted with an integrated drive-ready sound for electric power as standard. This means that both starting and stopping the electric drive will be accompanied by a distinctive acoustic signal. In addition there has been an expansion of the range of preconditioning functions, which is also a standard feature. Depending on the equipment fitted, more functions will be available that can be activated remotely by smartphone, in addition to interior cooling and heating. In future it will also be possible to activate the seat climate control before the start of a journey, for example. In the same way it will be possible to include the seat, steering wheel, exterior mirror and rear window heating systems in the preconditioning for heating the interior, as well as heating of the cameras for the driver assistance systems." |

How do you argue to get BMW to update the software on your cars? I have version 11/2019.70 and wanted BMW to update to the latest (03/2020.xx), but they will not do it. I complained about the heating button (that has to be switched off three times in order to turn off the heating if turned on automatically due to cold weather), and some other stuff (el. seats do not always choose correct profile, KeyCard doesn't always work when trying to close the car), to no avail... They don't think its "major" enough... I live in Norway.

I'd try removing your vehicle from CD. Then add it back, enter the code from the car, activate remote services, and confirm car privacy is enabled for all. Then do an Update All apps and services, from the apps menu

I went from 07/2019 to 03/2020. The steering wheel heating button is solved indeed but the rest was not so life changing. Some new icons and a bit more fluent driving aids But once you have been to your dealer you will have some credits for the forgotten option. Try to get 07/2020 while he is installing the active safety seat belts. |
