Navigation Software Update
Today I received an email from BMW to offer me a Navigation software update. I need to go and buy a USB key to do the upgrade at 199$ CAD.
My question is the following; Is this USB key coded with your VIN ? at 200$ I find it expensive a bit but if I can upgrade my wifes car with it also than itès not that bad. anyone with the answer ?

Do NOT waste your money
Sadly, I paid the $200. I just finished installing the update on my 2011 F10. I specifically wanted to have the mapping for the (Edmonton) Anthony Henday Freeway north section, which has been open for well over a year.
Well, update complete, I get some more nice pictures of buildings around downtown, but my car still thinks I'm driving across a farmers field when I'm on the North Anthony Henday. I can see it if the road had been open for only a few months, but it was Feb 2012 or thereabouts. It wouldnt be so bad if this was a lifetime update subscription, a la Garmin. But if I have to pay $200 every time for a still out of date map, forget it. I've left a message with BMW voicing my disleasure. It is my intention to return the USB key to them for a refund. |

Hi guys,
do you know whether FSC code is valid only for one-shot update or could I use same code more times for the same car?
