Thanks - I'll give it a try

(just gone through the thread - I'm not skilled enough to understand what needs to be done - is there a simple step by step summary anywhere - do I need a PC or can this be done on an iMac? - do I need 3 USB sticks - I downloaded the file, but I got a message "to run Vuze.app you need to install Java 3 SE runtime" - do I then get 3 x files and copy one of each to 3 x USB sticks - is the code generated from a downloaded file?)

Update navigation

Hi All,

I have a E91 in New Zealand, which originally first registered in Japan, If I purchase an Australia/New Zealand update, it has all the required files to operate the navigation in iDrive?

Thanks,

Thanks,
Yes should be fine, the Europe mapping comes in two parts and you load which ever part is applicable to you due to its size. As long as you have the FCS code to enter when requested your updated Au/NZ maps will load up (as long as you’ve obtained the right version for your system).

Yes, and the latest CIC premium map version is 2022-1. If you have the USB socket in the top right area of the glove box it’s done via there. USB in armrest area is NOT for map updates. If you’ve no USB in glove box it’s the dvd route (x3 dual layer discs), and use quality not cheap or it will fail… or just not read.

You need latest map version (unzipped its around 22GB) and the FSC code to update.

Not all 09 cars support this, might need a CIC software update as well.
