Looks like BMW Office is available with Professional radio with Combox. Only difference is the CIC can display email messages on top of the standard radio?

So I have run into a few snags and I'm hoping you guys have some advise.
Fist I'm getting an error on one CAFD while reading the code I assume I just need the proper CAFD to insert into my data files. Secondly when I try and view a CAFD in "view and edit" I'm getting a parse error of some sort. Any Ideas? Thanks!!! |

I'm not sure what is going on with the Parsing error but there should be no reason to mess with the Net Coding Data within a CAFD file, nor would I. If you mess up the Net Coding Data and then code your car using the CAFD, you may brick the ECU.

I looked at my vin:
http://www.bmwvin.com/?vin=f453062 Now looking at that, I see prepped for Sat radio. Does that mean I can unlock it via coding, in place of the $375, or I need additional hardware?

FSC code?
Can you explain the process/cost? Something that can only be done through the dealer?

With the exception of the FSC Code for Navigation Maps, which some people can generate the FSC Code locally and sell it, all the others must come from BMW, and they are expensive, anywhere form $200-$700 depending on which one. The FSC Code is based on your specific VIN and once purchased it has to be stored in the CIC and activated, which is beyond the capability of most coders.

svache,
I have this same question, but for the F30? First car I've owned that doesn't remember to turn fog lights back on automatically. Thanks, Erik |

Is $375 what they charge for the SAT FSC? You still need to find someone who can Import and Activate the FSC Code too.

If I have sat radio prep, shouldn't that mean I can have SAT without nav?

$375 Option For Sat. Includes the FSC Code and the wiring to the Shark Fin Antennae. Sat Radio Prep is like $75, and that means the antennae wire was run, but you have no FSC Code or activation, which makes the FSC Code about $300.

It's still unsure if it's missing the AUX jack. If it is, I am going to bitch and moan a bit at delivery in hopes they can make it up to me by activating the SAT radio instead. If it does have the AUX, I have a good friend who is a BMW tech at a dealer. Maybe he could help me out.

Does your VIN show as having 6FL, 6NK, or 6NL? What is it you are trying to do with the Aux port?

Notice it on my VIN: http://www.bmwvin.com/?vin=f453062 so without all of that, I would use the AUX to plug in an old Ipod to keep in the car as form of media storage in place of the missing USB.

How the hell that happen? There is no way I would accept a brand new F30 without either one of those, let alone both. They would have to either retrofit both options, or build me another and compensate me for the delay.

Apparently it's not something that can be retrofitted. They are just providing a discount off the price. |
