So update from the USA. After gettin in my car to leave from work today the notification appeared about having a new charging contract available to download for plug and charge. I checked the notification that appeared which is simply a tile on the charging app for plug and charge that wasn’t there before today.
I saw an available electrify America contract available to download, however it would only allow me to do while parked. I was in park with parking brake set mind you. I powered off the vehicle and the download button was no longer greyed out. Despite pressing the button no less than 100 times in a 20 minute period I was unable to get the vehicle to acknowledge my request.
I powered on the vehicle once more and did a hard rest of iDrive with a long power button press down for audio. After the system rebooted it shows a green check mark next to my electrify America contract and I was able to toggle plug and charge on.
I charged to full this am on way to the office while on a long conference call this week do I will likely not be able to test the functionality until I charge next week, however looks like I’m good to go.
Hoping I get the same functionality in my iX, but guessing since it was one of the first M60 trims produced and has the MGU21 Headunit I’ll be screwed out of this simple software only update that requires no different hardware!
