I recently had my car into service last week and I think they did a software update. I did have a problem with the iDrive knob.
How can I tell if I have the July update? Does anyone know the official version number? When I go to BMW's Software Update site and enter my VIN it says I have the latest software.

Just took my car to the local dealer here in LA and they said the update had not been released yet. They checked with the area rep and they confirmed it was not available for the 5 series. (I have a 2020 M550i)
Anyone had any luck? |

The understanding is the dealer needs to update their system to the latest ISTA 4.24.13.21290 otherwise they won't see the update. Some dealers are slower to update that system to my understanding. |

2020 M550i with Android Auto
Just got this working on my car...
2020 (09/19 build) M550i You need I-Level at least 20-07-525 (20-07-530 is current) So yes, they will need ISTA 4.24.x. The update must be done at a dealer that syncs FASTA data with BMW. Then you manually need to update online services (by pushing option in the apps menu screen) Then it should be good to go. Last edited by Cybertronic; 07-16-2020 at 06:33 PM.. |

I still cannot get AA to work in my 2020 M550i. Here is a screen shot of their system plugged into my car. Only thing that looks odd is that my ISTA No. for my car is 4.20.x even though their software on the laptop is 4.24.x |

I have a Pixel 4XL which is up to date, I also tried with a cable and got nothing. Android Auto works fine in all other cars I try my phone with.

ISTA is the software application for all BMW's I-Level is the specific group of firmware for a specific model. See the release notes for ISTA 4.24.1x attached - on page 4 you can see all the current I-Levels for the different model lines. Last edited by Cybertronic; 07-19-2020 at 12:55 PM..

I can see that my car seems to have the latest software, but still no joy getting AA running. For anyone who has AA running, is there anywhere on idrive that it mentions AA? If I go to apps it shows Car Play in the left hand menu. |

Yes, it will appear right under Car Play, regardless if your phone is on/wifi etc.. (so ignore all those comments)
See attached ... And you did the update services, right? (also attached) (There is a discussion of if the car needs to sleep after updating services.) |

That is what I assumed, but I get nothing. Odd thing is, the moment my phone connects to the cars WiFi the Android auto notification comes on the phone and says searching for android auto. Wonder how to put it to sleep. |
