At the end of the day because I had an F44, it turned out that the old battery was an EFB and I needed an AGM battery to updated. Changed, coded and registered and it updated. |

I had this problem with a 15-month old car. The update wouldn't start, and the dealer couldn't make it happen either. After two flat battery events, BMW Assist arrived at my home, fitted a new battery, replacing a rather warm one with a bulge in the side, and the update went immediately.

Hi there. Apparently your battery need to be around 12.6volts. This will allow the upgrade and the start stop will work. I use the CTEK MXS 5.0 Battery Charger with Automatic Temperature Compensation, Black. It’s a really good charger, I got mines on Amazon.

My stop start works, but to be honest I turn it off as I find the auto box can't really handle it, if you know what I mean. It always rattles when starts back up, but I will charge the battery up to 100% to see if that makes the update install.

Same problem… and my BMW app told me last day that the update 11/2023.50 expirated. My car is also on 03.2023.50.
