Upgrading to the new iDrive user interface???

So I have my 2012 550xi M sport in for service to replace the fuel injectors (apparently this is a known issue).

They gave me a 2013 528xi as a loaner.

The first thing that I noticed is the updated iDrive interface. I really like how clean it looks with the updated coloring and smoothness of using it.

Is there a way to update my IU to this?

I have been looking around, and I did find that I can update the bluetooth, but I want to update the IU.

Is this possible?

Thanks!

You have to replace your iDrive system as far as I know.

Yes. Will set you pack close to $2500 for a used unit bmwretrofittets.com but You still won't get the latest headunit with idrive touch. You better wait till that retrofit becomes available
