We never heard back from you since than. Was the software updated?

To be honest, I don't see why we should be discussing this here, since these issues are specific to your vehicle, and are not necessary relevant to others. I will ask Vlad to forward his last email to you and we can take it from there.
Kate,

I am discussing this here as I believe other forum members should be made aware that things don't go as smoothly as you make out. I tried to write some feedback on your site but you have chosen not to publish any negative feedback. I have replied back to you about the email correspondence on the 17/11/13 saying that the engineer updated my PDC module to the latest version which still did not solve the issue. If you are saying that my vehicle needs its entire software updated to the most current version by my local dealer, will Bimmer Retrofit pay for this as I was not made aware of this when I bought your product. Even if I do this, Vlad has stated that he cannot guarantee that this will work.

iClick Technology

>>> Rear-view Camera (Self-Coding) - Improved Functionality <<<


iClick Technology is now integrated into the Camera Module

iClick Technology is a new type of coding process which is now included in all of our Retrofit Adapters by default. Simple combination of iDrive controller turns and clicks can enable or disable various coding options instantly. This new iClick Technology does not require any coding knowledge, coding specialists or remote coding. Most importantly, the new iClick Technology removes the need of extra expenses after visits to the BMW dealer (which can wipe out the coding that was previously done).

Why is it useful?

1. Use iDrive Controller to enable/disable various options/features;

2. Perform firmware update for the Camera Module quickly, to take advantages of latest features;

3. Use iDrive Controller to select the correct configuration of your vehicle;

4. This is very convenient for dealers. Dealers can purchase rear-view camera kits in bulk (and benefit from volume discounts), without knowing in the exact configuration of the vehicles. Configuration can be done later using iDrive controller.

5. The Camera Module can be configured to work with any vehicle (E9x, E8x, E7x and E6x with automatic or manual transmission with or without PDC);

6. New features will become available to customers via a firmware update, when new features come out!

If you have an E-series BMW with CIC, rear-view camera will work even if you don't have PDC.

Our rear-view camera also acts as an "emulator", so you can just install our rear-view camera retrofit and remove your existing emulator. Your nav will continue to work.

Group Buy!

We've received many requests for the Group Buy for rear-view cameras and we decided to organize one!

Discount will vary depending on the # of participants:

3 people - 10% discount
5 people - 15% discount
10 people - 20% discount

Go ahead, and spread the word!
Group Buy closes on September 15th at 23:59 PST.

If interested, send us a PM or email at info@bimmerretrofit.com for information on how to participate.

I'm paid and I posted it in the Windy City BMW facebook page. I assume group buy members can also get the Video in Motion activation and legal disclaimer removal as mentioned on the first page of this thread? Thanks.
