Ignore the MAPS.zip file in the last step of the 1st post (it hasn't been updated since 2018).

You can find the latest maps by searching the EU or UK regional forums.

Try asking in the other thread (the users there may be able to seed it or provide alternative links).

Hi opjose just wondering what are the alternatives for MOVE version users to extract the 1b file or alternatives to generate the activation code. Thanks!

Very kind of you to answer so quickly! Unfortunately I don't have the cable to follow those instructions but thanks a lot anyway!

Regards.

Hello all,

I hope someone could help out here as I have tried to follow the procedure and advice thus far, but have come unstuck as the USB port in the glove box does not upload the maps files from the (FAT 32) usb drive.

Does this mean I need to burn the files to DVD('s) ? If so could the car recognise a dual layer DVD?

What is your CIC firmware version?

What is your VIN?

Does the CIC show a check Mark?

Can this method be used to pull the 1b file off of a cic that has been retrofitted using an emulator? as well as generating the correct FSC codes for map update?

No it does not work for emulators.

Hi, I just tried it on my 2009 530D which is LCI model I believe. According to my VIN my car is fitted with Navigation System Professional.

1b method just does not work for me. No HEX file is not generated for me.

I have a 2010 335 build on November 2009 that is not generating the 1B file from the first step. Below is a picture of what I have. I have had this car from brand new and never been updated anything. Can it be updated?

Do you have a the check mark on the GPS screen.

[jaimeeclt]

I do - it shows on top of the "i" on the lower left corner. However, One thing to note is that if I push down on the i-drive button to toggle the mini screen on the upper right on and off, the check mark goes away. See both pictures below on both scenarios.

Update: Tried again this morning on a 3rd USB thumb drive and this time it worked. Working through downloading the maps and will update later on. thanks again for the help.

Ok I finally gave up after the torrent download was estimated to end by early February . So, did some more research and ran into: https://www.codemybimmer.ca/ . All they requested from me in addition to the payment was the last 7 characters of my vehicles VIN. With that they were able to confirm their update would work. I ended up buying their 2021 map update including the FSC code for a mere $39.99 (US). The dealer had quoted me $390 because allegedly the car needed some sort of program update in addition to the map. After I bought through codemybimmer, within an hour I got an email with a link to the download plus instructions. The entire process of installation took about 3.5 hours. I went from a 2009 NA Premium map to a 2021 version on a 2010 E90 (335i) that had never ever been updated. Sweet! Check out the before and after pictures
