I haven't tried this yet, as the unit is around 500 euros.
"Order and installation of an encoded

the currently installed SIM map.
ConnectedDrive and Teleservice services
can then only be implemented with the
new control unit. The ordered control unit does not
operate in any other vehicle,
only this one!"

thanks for the info! have your heard about the "magic" date of 07/2013 after which the cars have different TC units and supposedly do not need much HW change to get this "sim change" done? My car is from 4/2014....
or I wonder if an aftermarket/2nd hand unit can be re-used? maybe some "innovative" coding would suffice?
