This is the free ota map updates for a region like the example of region 3 above.
My op refers to the usb map updates which cover in our case the whole of Europe. Cost is £60 for a year Last edited by Dephead2004; 07-03-2018 at 12:23 AM.. |

Check the connected drive to see if the service is booked in for you. You can do this by logging in from the computer or car. If not, you should get in touch with your dealer to sort it out.

I found the dealer was incapable of recognising the issue let alone finding a solution. And I like my dealer. I stand to be corrected, but I think only connected drive can switch on ota. |

I'm subscribed. I'll give my dealer a shot but I have no confidence in them since meeting what their so called 'Genius'.

I did get one OTA update which was 2017-2. My car came with 2017-1. The same holds true for the F15 so I don't think it's settings on my account nor an issue with the car. I don't think all regions get updates as frequently as others. When I called BMWNA a few months ago they said to wait until June and then go see the dealer which I intend to do but I won't make a special trip for this. For anyone interested, I'm in Region-2.

My car (May '17) was still on 2017-2. Checked that the booked service for OTA is enabled OK but obviously not been doing its job. Downloaded the 2018-2 from BMW map downloads (took 1 hour plus), extracted to a stick and stuck in the car's usb. Took about 20 minutes to do the update (UK/Europe).

I also had problems with - following some central updates to ConnectedDrive, I think - my car not having any map updates 'booked'. As well Remote+
Dealer was not that helpful (apart from telling me that, Yes, my account had been reset at some point). Anyway, after some 'challenging' emails to the ConnectedDrive team, finally all sorted. I'm currently in the process of downloading EUROPE EVO 2018-3 (all 27Gb of it)... my car is still at 2017-2 even after a few days from correcting my account still no OTA update, hence I'm using the USB option. |
