Is It Possible to "Code" CarPlay Into My iDrive 6.0
Just wondering if there's a way to code in Apple CarPlay into my 2018 F30 330i.
It has the premium package so the bigger screen with CIC NBT, I believe it's also the same as iDrive 6. Thanks! Andrew |

Depending on your current setup, you can either activate it over the air from BMW or add a WiFi antenna and enable it via FSC activation. If you have WiFi hot-spot prep and wireless charging, you can buy it from the BMW store. If not, you need to reach out to a local retrofitter to install the antenna and get the FSC.

Carplay can be added as long as you have Pro Nav with the Tile menu - option 609.
Depending on the firmware version, it can be activated via USB stick or Enet cable via 3rd parties or you can buy the official FSC code from BMW. If your car has 6NW or 6CP then it can be activated from the connected drive store. |

My ‘18 430 F33 has carplay.
Run your vin through a vin decoder and look at your option packages |
