Hi everyone, I am a total noob to all this! I just got a CPO 2015 F30(VIN-NS76409), manufactured date of 03/2015, I was looking to upgrade the 6.5 to 8.8 screen.The car does not have inbuilt navigation, but has radio.I had a few questions before I proceed with the upgrade, any help will be much appreciated.Thanks
1. Can i just swap my old screen with new 8.8 screen and use navigation with just coding via esys? 2. Can i go for an LCI vs pre-LCI screen, or will there be any voltage problems? PS : I have already ordered, the ENET cable, just waiting for delivery. |

The web site will have you call the individual junk yards. I drove to the yard because they couldn't give me the actual part # on the phone. This place gave me a 30 day return period. I haven't put the screen in yet because I have to learn E-sys, or find someone to code for me. Murf |

Hello BMW Experts!
I plugged in my new 8.8 screen today to see what would happen without coding. Getting the purple plug out of the old 6.5 screen was hard! Hardest was stretching the wire enough to turn the screen around so I could see the plug. If you can't see the push-in clasp, you will have trouble pulling the purple plug off. With no coding, the new screen said "no connection". Obviously, there was a connection or it wouldn't have power.... But is that message what I should expect? Murf PS: Coding apntmnt on Wednesday! |

Hello BMW Experts!
Went to get the big 8.8 screen & rear fog coded in yesterday. I didn't work! Even the fog light didn't work! We ended up putting the little 6.5 screen back in, but now I have various other probs, like no park cameras, radio, TPMS, clock.... If anyone here thinks they can help, pls go to this thread started by my coder: http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1478288 TIA! Murf |
