ID7 Instrument Cluster & Navigation Issue Question

Top of the evening everyone,

I have a peculiar situation I need help with. I have a 2022 BMW 540i and I'm having issues with the Live Cockpit and Navigation System. I was on a two-week vacation and when I came back, I had to jump my car. Once I did so, the vehicle in the navigation system still shows my 2022 5 series however now in the instrument cluster, it shows a X5 when I start the car. Any ideas how I can code the car in the cluster back to the 540i?

There is an option in the General Settings to resume the default factory settings for all features. Have you tried it?

You’re still under warranty. I’d let BMW reflash all of the software and sort it out.

That's what i'm going to do. There's a brake pad shortage at a few of my local dealers so there's no appointments or no loaner cars. Since I have a 200 mile round trip commute, I'd need a loan car so I was just trying to figure it out now lol

Yes, three dealers said they never seen it before. They were confused as if I drove a Plymouth in there

Yes I did. It just reset all my setting, removed all profiles and weirdly removed my vehicle from the mybmw app

Maybe this is the serious issue with latest iDrive 7 system. I left the car at dealer for checking.

Please update on what happened. There's a brake pad shortage so I have to wait a couple weeks for a loan car

I would try to solve this issue with Bimmercode if you have done some coding before. It saves your car's settings at every coding so you can recode the original software (Headunit menu/backups). If you select an archive setting and reboot the ECU, it could solve this bug.

200 mile commute to the dealer!?

It would be even worse if that was your work commute. Pretty brutal to slog through that all week...

This has happened to me twice. Once after restarting the car and getting a “no signal” on the center screen. I let it sleep—it was still like that, but eventually recovered while driving, except it showed an X5 (I have an M550).

The other day when I started the car, I noticed it showed the X5 at first and then switched over to the 5.

Weird.

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one however yes it is weird. It shows the X5 which makes me think I can change it if I find the setting

It seems that I have the same problem with cluster. I went to Dealer, and they seemed as surprised as I was. They inquired as to what I did with the car.
