We are also working with the US and Germany to increase the bandwidth of the network for the OTA map updates, as the US is having to same issue and complaints. |

Hi Canadian33,
I have a 2016 f30 with NBT EVO and just finally got an OTA update this week, but it was to a 2017-2 map version which sounds like it's a year old by this point. Do u know if this is the latest update available for canada or if the queue is like a year long? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks |

I have the same situation with mine MY2016 F30. I have watched the status bar from 96% until update completed. Nav system restarted. Map version shows as 2017-2.

BMW geniuses are a hit and miss, but on average they are consistent on this item: navigation tweaks are not the same as map version update... fo that I went on kijiji. |

No map update but I got a "changes to navigation...restart required" or something to that effect. Restarted it and I think an icon changed but no map update (still on 2017-1, on a 2018 Gran Coupe). BMW really needs to upgrade their backend where it can process updates especially if they are charging for it. For a 2018 model, there should be no reason for the map to be significantly outdated.

The base map will remain the same, but the car will get delta updates. For example, if your car came with 2016-2 map, and it has received OTA updates. Your map would have the same information as a vehicle that came with say 2017-2. You can update the base map to the latest version, but this would generally be done at the retailer since the map is roughly 30GB in size. Hope that clarifies OTA Map updates. |

New BMW Connected app is now available in Canadian App store but not in Android Play store.
It is too bad that Remote 3d view is still not available. They are supposed to send OAT software update for idrive so that we can enable this 3d feature in Data privacy settings under My Vehicle = idrive settings. Did anyone in Canada receive this software update in 2 or 3 days? Please let us know. Thanks |

@canadian33 Do you know how often the OTA map updates are pushed? My 440 is a 2018 but the maps are still 2017?

The updates are incremental, meaning if you are currently on 2017-3, you would go to 2017-4. |

Would anyone happen to know how to change to metric on the BMW connected app?
The app is working fine for me but I don't want to see gallons and miles! |
