You can check bmw.com/update. The newest version is UPD0507.bin


Speaking of which...

I downloaded the file, put it on a FAT32 USB drive and tried to install it. I got a failure saying something about the file not being compatible with the vehicle. Any ideas??

Did you make sure the file was in the root of the USB drive? When I downloaded the file it looked like I had a folder and the .bin files. I put both on the drive and it worked fine for me.

Any idea what "add-on" is referring to? The BMW update file only explains media and telephone versions.

It is not latest.

The BMW.com/update site offers occasional updates.

To receive the latest MN/TN levels you'll need to have car reprogrammed with latest iStep (or manually flash Nav hardware using esys or Ista.

For instance if you have NBT the current firmware is NBT_O. Your version # can be seen in the Nav version screen. just enter Map and click controller right and scroll to version menu.

I wonder if it's because instead of having a "satellite radio" option I have n.t.a. (SDARS-US)...

i had a same problem.when i take the car to the local service, they said there is no update. i show them the webpage with my WIN and show the update on the screen. After 2 days i called again if they checked. they said there is a problem in the webpage, so it may shows that there is an update but in reality there is not. ? i totally confused....

Any risk in upgrading? Mine has NBT_D12505I which I assume is fairly old.

Yes. Programming is always more risky than coding.

I believe that is the last 7 of your VIN (shouldn't the last digit be a 1?)...

THANKS for the clarification.

Any idea why my car (2014 LCI 535) won't accept the updated software download?

You are welcome.

I have not checked in the New Year; but, last website version I saw was UPD05074.bin for NBT, which corresponds to MN-002.255.071, TN-002.255.070.

So, if your existing BT Media & Communication is greater (eg, MN/TN-003.002.001), then update will fail.

Ok thanks for the clarification. But I still don't get it totally. Mine says NBT_Dxxxx. I thought the D is the firmware version of the NBT. How can I tell that my NBT firmware is the latest?
