BMW Site ERROR VIN

afarmer32 · 11-11-2014, 12:31 AM

New owner of a 2011 328i and am trying to update software and or see if there are any updates available and when entering the VIN# @ bmw.com/update I get the following error "The Vehicle Identification Number you entered is not correct. Please check your entry.". Any ideas?

Unfortunately, I can't offer any insight other than to tell you that you're not the only one this problem is affecting.

I have heard that this is a common issue with the BMW site.

Same issue here. Have no idea if there is anything I can upgrade. I called BMW and they could not tell me either.

Well just for shits and giggles I tried it again and I was able to download software this time. I updated my Telephone to TX-002.006.006. Not sure if that did anything but I am a little bit happier on the inside.
