Just did this last week. Super easy! Thanks

Installed via the USB drive option. Shipping was fast. Update was easy.

I am very happy with the service.
I at first ordered the files then after seeing that it would be slightly more involved than I wanted to get into at the time I ordered the USB thumb drives and they arrived 2 days later I was shocked.

Installing the new maps was fool proof and took roughly 40 minutes. Car was left running the entire time no problems. Get Service!! They even included a mailer to ship the USB thumb drives back to them.

I just purchased a CPO 2014 535i XDrive from a local dealer in Wilmington, De. I am wondering if they installed the latest NAV maps when it went through it's inspection. It it typical for a dealer to update the navigation system after a lease turn in? Can I check on my I-drive to see what version a currently have installed before purchasing the USB? Thanks

You can check the maps version via idrive. Normally you have to pay for map upgrades so its doubtful they did it.

It's very unlikely they updated them. If you are on the navigation screen, select the "option" button on the idrive controller, then scroll to the bottom and it will tell you the map version.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks for the blazing fast response! I will check it out and report. I usually like to use my phone for navigation "WAZE" but it is nice to have it displayed on the dash and HUD while driving.

Map Update Extraction Problem - Resolved

I initially had difficulty extracting the files. It was frustrating. I use a iMac computer and used the following apps in an attempt to extract the files: Decompressor and Extractor apps for the Mac OS failed to completely extract the files. Yes, I followed the provided directions to the letter for the process. I moved to a Windows OS and tried RAR Opener, no success there either. Finally, I downloaded and used WinRAR - success! After that, everything went smoothly and my maps are updated and all works perfectly I let the folks at Bimmer America LLC know of my issues. Hopefully it was just operator error, though I hope future downloads can be extracted with Mac OS compatible systems. So in short, use the recommended WinRAR for downloads or spend the extra couple bucks and get the USB drive. If you do have any problems, the folks at Bimmer were great.

Thanks for the feedback. When you received the download email there should have been extraction software recommendations in the instructions.

We recommend "WinRAR" if the customer is using Windows and "The Unarchiver" if the customer is using macOS.

Thanks for your business!

Just checking to see if I am able to download a map for a 2014 i3 with the Business Nav.

Yes but your i3 has the Route navigation system which is a different set of maps than most people have. Here is the link for Route: https://www.bimmeramerica.com/coding/route-navigation-map-update
