BMW iDrive Update Tips

First things first: you either need to perform a full or partial BMW iDrive update. We have BMW iDrive tips that will allow you to determine which updates will are necessary for your particular model:

• A full update is only recommended when absolutely necessary, so only perform this step when something in your vehicle is not working properly. This might be something like system-wide issues, in which case your car’s electronic control modules need to be updated. Only a skilled technician can do this, so schedule an appointment with any of the staff at the BMW of Greenwich service center. This is because BMW computers are needed to determine the root cause of the problem.
• More commonly, a partial software update is the required BMW iDrive update. This usually resolves issues concerning components like Bluetooth®, multimedia systems, or mobile device compatibility. A partial BMW iDrive update is simple and can be performed right at home.

Once you know whether you need a full or partial update, you can either schedule service or perform it yourself and get back on White Plains roads!
