I will let you know the version when I get the car today assuming the dealer is done with it.

Under what section can I find the version number?
I think RealTime traffic requires active ConnectedDrive subscription, but since G11/12 didn't arrive until Aug 2015, you should still have ConnectedDrive.

iDrive Setting>Update software>Current version--just below VIN you will find Telephone (TB) and Media (MB) software version; and also in the Navi/Map update section you will find the NBTevo version (just above where it says automatic map update). My 2016 750 has TB- and MB-006.027.001 and NBTevo P183621. The NBTevo version is the most important one, as CarPlay and FS both depend on it.
