Some fragrances are very subtle so I was sniffing at the vents. But when the cartridges still were 100% I thought something was wrong because normally they run out quickly. Very disappointed in this. Issue exists since first production in April 2023. High priority bugfix is expected April 2024. That's 1 year to solve it! |

Only guess I can think of is that PHEV has very different AC system (electric vs mechanical) and they messed up the coding on logics how to direct airflow

One would think they would test such things… Certainly on a PHEV with completely different wiring and AC than a traditional car.

Don’t understand how they messed this up from production in April. It worked on the 45e. It’s not they had to begin from scratch. A paid option that doesn't work from start of production is just not acceptable and professional. I may hope they have dedicated test teams and test scenario's for everything?

But the OTA 8.5 update was promised for September, then it was October and the last I read about it is December now but that isn't even definite. So BMW's word means nothing |

Funny, I keep getting advertising messages everyday in my BMW app to buy ambient air cartridges. But after months they are still 100% because that crap doesn't work out of factory due to a software bug since April...
Any means to contact those BMW app nitwits? |

BMW UK say its not their problem...
I emailed BMW UK about this issue before Christmas. Received a response today saying they're only the distributor and I should go back to the dealer. Have responded as they're the distributor they should go back to their principal and let us know when this issue will be resolved. You can still buy this as an option on the 50e so they're still selling a product they know doesn't work......
