Mein Auto: 2012 E70
Update to Sirius/XM Interface

I have a 2012 E70, Father in-law has a 2012 528i. The display for his Sirius/XM has a few more options on it, I was wondering how I can update/upgrade mine to look like his, or is that just an extra bell/whistle he got with is? I imagine it's all just software based, no?

No the E70 and the F10 have completely different software and you will not be able to change it. BMW has stopped development of the older Idrive and will not add any new features. You are stuck until the 2014 X5 comes out.
