iDrive Software Update

Heads up - there's an update available - appears to have been released Feb '14 - "UPD05021" - for recent iDrive systems. Mine is a MY2014 - if yours is MY2013, you might get a different revision.

Go to http://www.bmw.com/update, enter the last 7 of your vin to see the latest software revision for your car. Download the file to a USB stick, then plug it into your car's USB port and find the 'software update' function in idrive.

Installing now...

Thanks for the heads-up. Seems odd to release 2 updates in such a short time.

Will this affect any coding you have done?

Nothing immediately visible - the release notes refer to various bugfixes targeted at specific devices including iOS7, Blackberry, etc.

Could this finally fix the e-mail issues with iPhone? Just curious, after the update, what versions are folks seeing? For Media, I have MN-002.033.002; Phone TN-002.034.001.

I really doubt it..... I gave up on that feature a long time ago.

If this update changed something regarding email or sms, I can't find it. Are you able to get text messages on your iDrive? Never worked for me.

Just updated mine maybe 2 months ago.

Release notes tell you what's changed. Probably nothing you will notice as it's likely improvements for BT etc.

Time to download the latest file.. again

Noticed a nice change today - used Apple Maps to navigate to a destination, and the guidance voice automatically came via bluetooth. This never happened before the software update. Previously, I had to have the lightning cable connected to hear the navigation via the vehicle's speakers.

I'm having a tough time getting this done. I downloaded the update to a USB, place it in the USB receptacle in the armrest, click on update software, and I get a message saying there is no USB plugged in (the light on the thumb drive is on so I'm sure it is seated properly). Any suggestions??

I installed it and the phone started malfunctioning big time !
The BMW Connected is not working even with this version with my Samsung Note 3.

I had to restore the previous version to get the phone working again.
However, after the restore the music from the music collection is no longer playing.

My recommendation, do not install UPD01008.
Another great support from BMW

Ok just installed it on my 2012 F07 nothing new i can see.

For the ones that like me had hopeless secret wish they would fix messaging and email no go don't work same as before disapointed to say the least.

Streaming BT did not wanna start had to go to the phone and manually start it.

Also I have Internet function on my car thought this would maybe work as I never was able to use that also same as before says starting Internet a globe Shows up with 2 arrows but then nothing just times out like before...

Also was hoping maybe cover art will come up while BT streaming no go for that as before I need to plug in the cable...

I don't know what they updated but not worth the bother... I'm just puzzles how they can't meake this stuff work totally lame.

update no use

Had the iDrive software upgraded, but still can not find/realize some hidden functions. Then i had myself own a easycoding kit (got from from another bimmer) which made all CIC/RSE/BDC/FRM etc hidden functions available. No need to cut wires etc stuff, like a obd-based cable, with that simple software,you are able to realize CCC/CIC etc functions even without updating the iDrive software.
