Little off-topic:
Does anyone know what's necessary to retrofit MINI CONNECTED (SA6NM) on a R60?
Dealer sell it as retrofit, enable code 65902219124.
I believe it's FSC code, necessary in more recent i-levels and VO code.
Not sure if anything else is necessary, including combox.

The goal here is obtain A2DP capability, and i don't know if combox is always necessary.

Thanks.

Hello!

Just a warning for some users with a NBT. There are some NBT-low in the cars (mostly in 2012/2013) and with a NBT low it's impossible to code 6NR (WDBI_PLAIN error).

You can see the version of the NBT on the sticker on the head unit (you have to remove it). Another possibility is, a NBT-low has no 6NS inside and if you add it into the VO and code the NBT you should get also a WDBI_PLAIN error. In that case a NBT-low is installed and you will have no chance to install 6NR (BMW Apps) regardless of whether you have a FSC for it or not.

NBT-low cannot be VO Coded to work with 6NR as it has only 1 USB Port, but it can be FDL Coded to have working BWM Apps with 9C FSC Code.

Hello!

That's was I also tried, but without success. I got always an WDBI_PLAIN error when I tried to code the settings for BMW Apps on a NBT-low.

Shawn, what do I need to activate BMW Apps on my '11 535iX?

I don't see 6NR or 9C on my list, but I have the 6VC Combi
