[antidentite]

I just had my dealer update my iDrive software yesterday, even though when I talked to them on the phone they said that they wouldnt do it unless there was a specific bulletin on the vehicle (which there isnt).

However, they should update it if you tell them you're not seeing the arrow display in your small nav window. Here's the SIB you can reference:

SI B 61 03 05
General Electrical Systems March 2007
Technical Service

This Service Information bulletin supersedes S.I. B61 03 05 dated December 2006.
