Another 2009 success!
Build date of 10/08 Downloaded the torrent in 12 hours and copied to USB stick in 30 minutes. Got the fsc code from (******* at inbox.lt) in an hour and updated the car in 45 minutes. All in all, pretty painless. ps. my car had the shopping car update done in mid-late 2009. *******'s price is very reasonable.

I tried that and it didn't work. It reads the flash drive but it doesn't ask if I want to update the map. Do I have to update the idrive firmware since my car is 05/09?

Sidenote, so my car is at the dealer right now hopefully getting its software for the idrive updated!! and they even gave me an F30 as a loner. Alpine white on black nappa 328. I actually really like it and it drives just like my e90. Base seats suck compared to my sports package seats, but i do like the layout of the center console and idrive. New gear selector is pretty slick and the idrive screen (although no as wide) is nice up top on the dash. I do not like that they moved the cruise control to the steering wheel, i went to set it and it wasnt there! Eco pro on the highway is perfect and sport is perfect for around streets. Comfort isnt bad but i think id just leave it in sport day to day and use eco on the highway.

Just got my new F30 (2013 335i xDrive M Sport) since I lost the 2011 to Hurricane Sandy (anyone need a winter tire set for there e90? practically new). One change I love in the interior is the HUD - has speedometer, nav mini map pops up when a turn is coming up, and you can control the radio/satellite stations which display in the HUD using this rubber scroll wheel on the steering wheel. Sweet.

They're probably pretty reluctant to do it because from what I've been told, each module in the car needs to be updated separately and the whole process takes hours. It's a slow data transfer, multiple reboots, etc, and sometimes they have to repeat updating a module multiple times if it fails on the first try. It's definitely an all-day affair. The other reason they don't just do this at customer request is because it can also introduce new problems to other systems in the car since you're updating the entire car, not just the iDrive/navigation. Everything needs to be on the same page to talk to each other. If they still claim there is no update, because of what you've already stated about your firmware behavior yours is old enough to be affected by the 'shopping cart bug'. This bug showed up in the first CIC vehicles where in you tell iDrive NOT to display POIs on the map, but even with every POI disabled when you zoom in to 400 feet or closer the shopping cart icon still displays. In urban areas with lots of shopping POIs the icons can literally cover the map and keep you from seeing the streets. The fix: update the ISTA/P because this was fixed in later versions. Here is the SIB that covers the problem. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- SI B 65 04 09 Audio, Navigation, Monitors, Alarms, SRS April 2009 Technical Service SUBJECT Shopping Cart Icons Displayed Permanently MODEL E82, E88 *(1 Series) from September 2008 E90, E91, E92, E93 *(3 Series) from September 2008 E60, E61 *(5 Series) from March 2009 E63, E64 *(6 Series) from March 2009 F01, F02 *(7 Series) *with option 609 (NAVIGATION SYSTEM PROFESSIONAL, CIC) SITUATION The shopping cart icon is permanently displayed in the navigation map display in scale 400 feet and below, even when the setting for display points of interest (POI) is set to "No Points of Interest". When scale 800 feet and up is selected, it is not displayed. CAUSE Software issue in the Car Information Computer (CIC) INFORMATION Do not replace parts! Please explain the cause of the problem to the customer. This Service Information will be updated as soon as an improvement is available. WARRANTY INFORMATION Information only -------------------------------------------------------------------- So if they don't want to fix your USB problem (because it may not be documented), you can go this route and get this problem fixed, which will by default fix your USB problem.
