I have a 2011 X5 & my radio head went bad, so purchased a used one from a wrecked car. Initially I had navigation, but no sound or satellite selection on idrive. Pulled it out & put my old one in to verify GUI selection & then put the used one back in. Lost Nav function. Took the car in to have it coded & everything worked, except the Nav function. I thought I smoked the nav function, so ordered another one, installed it & everything worked great until I shut the car off & went to drive it the next time. When I turned the car back on, it was just like the first used radio, except I had sound, so obviously it has something to do with coding the radio to the car. I was told to make sure the radio was coded to the donor VIN, otherwise I wouldn't be able to update the NAV later, as the FSC code wouldn't work. Anyone knowledgable with coding a radio out of a used X5 into another X5.
Thanks!
Thanks!
