HI all,
Updated the maps today provided by Andrew dracon@gmail.com , very quick response and good service . Car requested the key before the update. Tip : Use a USB 2 and 16GB Usb drive , It could be just my USB3 32gb drive which car wont detect . I have plenty lying around so was not an issue . Thanks |

When I recently got my car serviced at my dealership (about a week or two ago) they had a promotion on for $250 AUD. Which includes as many map updates for the next 2 years. So my question is how often do BMW release the map updates? Once a year or more? If more than once a year it maybe work out better buying it from the stealership?

Does anyone know how to generate the FSC code for this map? I have the cable and software needed but just need the updated file to generate it. |

I didn't realise that there are 2 types of maps available (Move & Next). Does anyone know what the differences are? Is 'Move' for CIC and 'Next' for NBT? Something like that?

The latest 2016 premium maps for CIC is just as bad as the 2012 version, albeit with a few more colours distinguishing different road types. The lack of street names displayed is a joke.

Just did the same thing - $69 through Paypal and also received very prompt service. The update only took about 5 minutes, including entering the FSC code he provided. Highly recommended if you use the navigation system

Is this simply a matter of emailing the address posted previously and then downloading a supplied link/code to desktop, putting file onto a USB, plugging USB into car port and updating via idrive menu?
Are there any additional tools / coding equipment required? I have a mac, am assuming as long as my usb is formatted in a way that can be detected by the car it would be all good? Cheers |

Nothing else can be on the USB whilst you update the maps software.

Whoever sells you the code will need your VIN, which determines your update.
