I had sent a email to BMW of North American LLC, to ask them a question, how to use the NEW Maps Google with the New Google maps format, having lost this ability sometime back in February 2014. This can be done, both as a Google member or as a Non-Member. Before I touch on that set of Google maps instructions, I would like to point out for anyone reading this post, you can go to the website www.BMWUSA.com and once on the site opens, look down to the lower right for "You Tube" Videos and click on the car shown.
Please note under each of about 7 or so pictures are a list of videos. Please watch and learn more about your BMW. You may find as many as 25 videos under just one of the pictures listed as a topic on that website.
