Google Send To Car?????????????

Ok, help me out, I give up. Where do I get the Device or Account info to enter into Google Send To Car function to be able to transfer data points? My email wouldn't work and doesn't make sense anyway since I have 3 BMW's in my account. How would it know which one to send it to?

I haven't used it straight from Google in a while, but it used to be the e-mail address associated with your roadside/SOS functionality.

I've mainly been using "send to car" from within the BMW Remote app. It works well.

You need to call BMW and have them associate your email(s) to the corresponding car(s).

When I go a new car and needed my email address associated with the new VIN I got in a car and used the SOS button to call BMW. They fixed it. You can also call 888-333-6118.

Good Luck !

i have a 2012 and it worked like a charm for 1-2 years, and I'd use it all the time. Then I think Google stopped the feature, i.e., I could no longer send to car from my browser. It was a Google issue

Google didn't stop it, but they now require authentication before you can use it. You gotta login to your gmail first and you will have the option to send to car/phone again. A while back login was not required.
