Connected Drive Issue

Martinjp · 12-20-2014, 02:03 PM

I have a 2011 E90 320d and cannot seem to get BMW Online to work. The car can communicate with my phone and use the data connection to update the list of services that are available to me. When trying to access BMW Online it just says something like starting BMW online with a spinning circle.

I've installed the latest update from www.bmw.com/update

The cars software was updated by BMW last week to correct a CBS fault.

Any help would be most grateful:-)

Are you paying for BMW Assist? There are 2 parts - BMW Assist and the BMW Apps part. I had to add the BMW Apps part to get mine working. I had it for 2 days and canceled it. It was horrible and super sssslllloooowwwww...

All working now, contacted BMW and they texted me a username and password. Got to admit it's pretty slow but do like how you can find the car and lock/unlock it from my iPhone. Not sure how to install apps on the idrive system though.
