Could have gotten back info from BMWNA, I have no idea. I have little trust in anyone on the other end of customer service line regardless of what company outsources them. Usually uneducated, poorly paid, sad souls that do more harm than good.
So... in other words, no one with the small screen is eligible for the upgrade?
I thought we already determined that the screen alone is not a full proof indicator of whether or not a vehicle is equipped with the newer comm tech required for upgrade? |
In the 2016 model year, if your vehicle doesn't have the $1,950 Navigation 8.8 inch (
ID4 EVO) option, then it has ENTRYNAV standard (6.5 display), which for that year, still ran on the older 3G network.
Only the NTB iDrive 4 EVO option for the 2016 model year was upgraded to initial 4G telemetry and is eligible for the revised hardware..
