The better question is, if they messed up the BMW apps, what are the chances they just program the standard 335 engine map instead of the boosted map since they seem to be forgetting so many things.

Oh well, I guess I'll be the test subject as the car is going back today for them to rebuff and to fix the bmw apps issue. I've asked the service manager to check the engine mapping to make sure its inline with the power kit. Whether they actually check or humour me and say they did, is a totally different story.

I'm not sold on the sound yet.........so I'll go with the wheels
Anyways, the service people said it must have been a mix up at the port where the car got the software. I told them to check the engine software to make sure its got the power kit software too. The car is fast after 60km/h+ but it doesn't feel much faster than a standard n55 335i to me. But then not like I'm driving like a maniac and gunning it from the get go.....

These were my rates. Here's a question someone could answer. Isn't it supposed to be a stage 2 kit. There should be extra hardware under the hood.... Wouldn't that confirm something???

Drove my baby back home today. 3 hours. Wow. Love the power and exhaust. Sweet ride. Wife took it for a drive and it was love at the first start of the engine!
Just gotta figure out the apps, badge and now apparently the performance kit! Mine just says performance kit not performance kit 2 on the sticker. I assume same thing?

The car is staying with them over night cause I need them to buff the car again and they prob need to update the software. I can't drop it off in the morning cause I have work so I dropped it off at night and they are going to look at it tomorrow.

Why are they rebuffing it? Unless they messed up, better to bring it home, clay it, polish and wax it yourself.

I have a PDF from BMW (Sales Guy sent it to me regarding BMW Apps)
Subject: BMW Apps Package (ZOX) Overview In keeping with BMW’s commitment to technological advancement, we are proud to announce the upcoming availability of “BMW Apps Package” effective as of April production (ZOX). As the next advancement in BMW’s ConnectedDrive strategy, BMW Apps provides the ability to control specific Apps on the iPhone over the iDrive. Each time a new function is released, owners will be able to update and customize the infotainment capabilities of their vehicle simply by updating their BMW Connected App or by downloading a new BMW Certified 3rd Party App. Price BMW Apps Package will be available as a $300 option. This package includes the Smartphone Integration (option 6NF). This option also includes Apps (option6NR). For full media functionality the customer will also need to purchase a Snap-in Adapter as an accessory parts purchase. Availability All 04/11 production MY11 and MY12 models in combination with the Navigation System (Option 609) (i.e. 128i Coupé, 323i Sedan and 328i xDrive Sedan Classic Edition Package cannot be equipped with BMW Apps Package) Connection To access simply connect the iPhone to the vehicle’s USB port in the center console or the Media/BMW Apps Snap-in Adapter. See the Technical Requirements section below for functionality per connection method. Features BMW Apps Package is split into three new features - Apps, PlugIn and Video Playback. Apps – lets the customer use the BMW Connected App as well as future BMW certified 3rd Party Apps. BMW Connected App – is an app developed by BMW that contains multiple functions. It is currently available to be downloaded for free via Apple’s App Store. The following features will be included at launch: o Web Radio – listen to 1,000’s of internet radio stations from all over the world. Search for stations by genre, country or popularity to make it easy to find your desired content. This feature can also be used on the customer’s iPhone when not in the vehicle. o Facebook and Twitter – stay connected and receive the latest status updates from your social network. Text-to- Speech functionality allows incoming messages to be read over the vehicles audio system. This feature also allows you to send pre-defined text messages relating to current vehicle information while traveling. The amount of text and functionality is limited to ensure safety and avoid driver distraction. BMW Certified 3rd Party App – is an iPhone app that is developed by another company but has been certified for use in your BMW. Announcements are forthcoming on which 3rd Party Apps will be available. For administrative convenience, this document may include references, processes or information for authorized BMW car retailers, authorized BMW SAV retailers and/or authorized BMW Individual retailers. All references, processes or information related to BMW SAVs and/or BMW X5s are intended ONLY for authorized BMW SAV retailers. All references, processes or information related to the BMW Individual Collection are intended ONLY for authorized BMW Individual retailers. 2011 Product Planning Bulletin PlugIn – changes the iDrive screen to the same look and feel as the iPod function on an iPhone. It allows you to take advantage of all the iPod features (Genius, album art, compiling playlists, etc) that are not available via the basic USB connection. With future iPhone software updates, new features will also be available in the car. An additional benefit comes in the way of increased interface speed. Video Playback – enables video playback from the iPhone via the iDrive display. This function only works when the vehicle is stationary. Ordering Requirements The following features must be ordered to add package ZOX: 609 – Navigation with iDrive 639 – BMW Assist 6FL – iPod and USB adapter Note: For the X3, option 6NL (BMW Assist with enhanced Bluetooth and USB) is ordered instead of 639 (BMW Assist) and 6FL (iPod and USB adapter) The following features are included with package ZOX: 6NR – Apps 6NF – Smartphone Integration Technical Requirements iPhone (3G, 3GS or 4) BMW Connected App; available free of charge at Apple’s App Store Connector: o Apple White Cable (or) o Media/BMW Apps Snap-in Adaptor – Accessory Parts Purchase (required for PlugIn and Video Playback functions).
