LexxM3 ha! I noticed the stop climatization too. At least my OCD is at ease. It appears BMW worked relentlessly to update their logo. So glad they find branding more important than functionality!

This is new as well, I believe. 3 times includes 3 failures, by the way. I guess they think they are overloaded and that's the root cause of all their problems. LOL. Only conclusion that I have ever reached with CD is ... morons.

Corollary: Do NOT update the BMW Connected app!

Ugh, well, also 3D view now appears to be broken in a brand new way. No, my car is not, in fact, in a desolate dessert void with no objects around it. Morons.
It would appear that your car is in fact in search of Starman

I think this limit has always been there. I first encountered the 3 times limit a long time ago... maybe like a year ago.

Hm, not for me. Never seen it before and I have definitely done more than 3 in 2 hours in the past quite a few times when "everything was new and opportunities were still unlimited".

I wonder if it only happens during times of congestion? I went back and looked at my old remote views (which you so helpfully pointed out is why my CD app is so big ), and the night it gave me the 3/2 error was Feb 15, 2019 :

Ha - I just tried the 3D view - looks like my car and LEXX's car are both in space together!

Yes it is the normale procedure. It takes a couple of hours and they don't like that. They only do it for a reason.

But reading this forum you can find a lot of potential reasons that need upgrading.

Might I suggest:

Navigation looses destination after a stop. I had this issue.

Problems with CarPlay / phone connection

...

Question is, if you don't have problems should you upgrade. I only did this because my car was in for another reason.

Swiping the app away and then rebooting the phone returned the car from space back to my garage.

Mine worked perfectly until my drive to Seattle. Now some of the features like unlock, honk. horn work...but remote start does not. I think its illegal in WA to have remote start - and if so - maybe app detects the region and disables it. It worked once, and not since.

The car also keeps telling me to log in to my Connected App - but I'm already logged in.

Deleted phone...readded it....nada.

And now send a destination to phone - which I used to use a lot - also stopped working.

I'm pretty techie but this stuff makes no sense.

Mine stopped updating yesterday. Brand new X6 built just two weeks ago and picked up a week ago, so it should have the latest software. Yesterday the location of the car on the app stopped updating. Showed it driving on the highway where it had been hours before. I can get a current 3D surround view if I call it up, but that’s the only way to change the update time, and even at that, the car location didn’t change. It’s like the car stopped communicating with the servers.

Sent the car a remote unlock command this morning this morning, and that finally seemed to get the current location to update, so I’m not sure what happened.
