Manual map update via ConnecteDrive
I have a June 2015 build 535i and my ConnecteDrive cockpit says I am subscribed to map updates. I have installed the BMW download manager to my PC, but when I click on the button to download a map, nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong? I have tried on two different computers, so I don't think it's hardware...

In my experience i had to look at the Connected drive page (once you have installed the app on your PC) which then (for me) stated that i have the latest version installed so there was nothing to update.
The message appears around the area where you clicked download. |

What maps do you currently have installed?
The BMW site is not working properly at the moment and is only offering 2016-1 anyway. I downloaded 2016-2 from another site for my 2015 F11. |

Thanks. Are you able to point me in the right direction? I already have the access code on ConnecteDrive...

Operator error! I hadn't unzipped the Next file, doh!
Now 50% loaded in the car, so seems to be doing what it should!

I though the later cars with the BMW update subscription used a different map file (downloaded from BMW) to the pre subscription cars that need an fsc code, but from what your saying it's exactly the same map file (2016-2), just doesn't need the fsc code?

It is exactly the same ptocess and there is a FSC code supplied with the car, it just lasts for 3 years.
That is why i presume it is possible for Ebay suppliers to generate a code that is "lifetime"? |

Probably not, you can register here:- https://www.bmw-connecteddrive.co.uk...x.html#/portal
Plenty of resellers thought that are cheaper though. See site in previous post above |
