Any help is appriciated.
You need to wipe Donor FSC Codes and load full set of original OEM ones.

Hi Shawn! I'm hoping to benefit from a lesson as well...

I just moved my 2013 E70 from NA to eastern europe, and of course the Nav doesn't work. From reading the previous four pages, it seems that have two options - either I'll pay a dealer exorbitant amount, or find an FSC code and Nav update from a random internet seller. First question, do I understand that much correctly?

Second, assuming the above is accurate, can anyone weigh in on where to purchase / how to install the FSC and Nav update? I'm terribly undereducated I'm afraid.

Thanks for taking the time, and thanks in advance for any help!!

Hi Shawn

I am hoping you can point me in the right direction. I have a 2017 330i which I previously had activated carplay via usb and installed some RTTI code as well via usb. The RTTI code caused an issue I think and my local BMW dealer updated the software and did a full reset. I have ID6

Post that update my navigation is now forever in loading but I think this might be the case due to there being non oem fsc codes in play.

Is there a way I can get rid of these codes and essentially put the whole thing back into factory state to get the nav working again.

Any help appreciated, it is all a little confusing. I have an ENET cable but not sure what else I need to do.

Appreciate any guidance or assistance you can give

First reply

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum, I live in Italy and I'm looking for information on how to upgrade my car.
I was able to successfully implement the HBA, replacing the light switch on the steering wheel and doing the appropriate coding.
Now I would like to try activating SLI, but it is not clear to me if I will need an FSC or not.
At the moment my account is new and therefore I cannot receive PM.
Thanks for the attention.

SLI required FSC Enabling Code.

So turns out I not only don’t have PM function yet (without four post replies) but I had emails from the site turned off so this whole two months I thought the forum dropped off 😂

PM function should be good in an hour. Thanks fellas!
