It may even be a stretch to combine the new engines (DME) with the older iDrive. The modules all talk to each other. We shall see soon enough.

They don't the Driving Recorder publicly or privately - it is not listed in the list of cars supported.

Not sure what engine you are talking about, but a horsepower increase due to larger turbos had zero to do with iDrive.

High pressure fuel injection Redesigned crankcase and cylinder heads Redesigned cylinder ignition Redesigned intake New cooling And yes, the DME and the 17+ other modules in the car all talk to each other, one way or another, over Canbus. Doing an engine change with some new module hardware/software does impact other modules in the car. Believe it. Or don't.

But, do they necessitate an iDrive software change is the issue. We will know soon enough.

The Drive Recorder I thought clearly stated it's NOT coming to the 5-series.
Drive Recorder is "available for the new BMW 3 Series Sedan, BMW 7 Series, BMW 8 Series, new BMW X5 and new BMW X7" |

not mentioned, most likely not. check out my recent thread, the main diff. between the m850 and m550i are the resonators, so if you remove the m550i resonators it will sound like the m850i. Check out my videos..

I would be shocked if they did. the 5 series shouldn't be as loud. it's still targeted at luxury sedan market who want the big engine, many buyers I imagine would not want it if it sounded so loud.

That’s great news about the updated V8 engine but I’m disappointed that there is no mention of a LSD.

probably same reason why not making MPPSK sound by default in 3/4 series back then, just different demographic/audience

So...
the 2020 gets the new engine, the new dash, laser lights, ID7 - is that correct? based on those pics looks like hte dash was brought up to date too. What's left for a LCI short of some minor body tweaks?
