Connected booster package

Being as there is discount I was debating getting this connected booster package. But I don’t know what it will actually give me if I purchase it. Anyone got it?

Thinking exactly the same, although already have up to date maps and the app on my iPhone etc..

For £55, is it worth it

I've just renewed my ConnectedDrive Booster Package [L] for an F30 at £63.20

(The normal price is £79, so less 20% is £63.20).

I assume the [M] version linked to above is for G series cars, but have no idea why there is a price difference.

The only feature I want is RTTI - real time traffic info, which I find is really useful.

Speaking of ConnectedDrive. I have an account on there and it shows my car and it's VIN etc, but on the iDrive it says the car is not subscribed to ConnectedDrive. Odd. Any ideas how I can rectify that?

Samsies. The RTTI is excellent most of the time.

If you are able to logon to the ConnectedDrive website ok, there is a customer support option / link.

I'd guess your best bet is to ask there.....

They'll probably want money......

Updated mine today with this; it sorted it within 5mins of me paying for it and worked as well as showed me some roadworks up ahead, so managed to get around them via some nooky back roads

Very impressed
