Thanks for the reply. The car scheduled for tomorrow for my dealer to get it programmed. I will report if I see any difference.

Question on the maps and the car wifi. Does the wifi link to an iPhone to work and get any maps update?

If you bought your vehicle from a BMW dealer, they might be willing to update it for you, otherwise, you may have to pay a dealer to do it for you. In order for you to have Apple CarPlay, you need Fall '17 software or newer; for full-screen CarPlay, you need Fall '18 or newer.
