How does one update the IDrive software nowadays. Can you still do it via USB
Our country does not yet support Connected Drive so I cannot do OTA updates. Is there a BMW site that you can get updates and do it via the car's USB just like the older cars

The site for downloading maps is connected drive but the download is specific to your car so presumably contains a key relevant to your vin. So even if some downloaded the map I doubt it would work anyway. Not saying if it could be hacked or not but officially I don't see it working.
Have you approached bmw as presumably there is a map on the car already so it must be possible via an official route. Obviously be a cost to this. |

However, the new G20 is equipped with the functionality you are looking for. So potentially a matter of time before they extend the same to G30. |
