This is such BS, I just bought a 2011 BMW X5 in December and they said everything was going to be upgradeable

I'm f***ing furious


Crimson92 -- I can't send you a PM, are you in San Diego too? e-mail me, gianni@pacificatms.com, we should get everyone together that has a 2011 and doesn't have access to this upgrade and collectively bitch at the dealerships

Retrofit 6NR

According to email info from BMW plant Dingolfing the retrofit is scheduled to be available 06/11, which sounds good to me. No info regarding costs, but I guess it will be ~ 200€. In addition you will need to have the cradle. I have the first release of the media snap in, which heats up pretty fast. I will ask BMW for a change once the new model will be available.

So technically BMW will have an option to retrofit this on my car, which is a November 2010 build 2011 X5 ?

I am confused

Should I wait or just do an aftermarket one?

Do you have the e-mail?

My service rep at the dealership couldn't get any details!

I have Bluetooth audio and phone etc and I'm not sure if my car will be able to do this OEM through the dealership, and I don't want to void my warranty

Hi, after missing 6NR with my 12/2010 535d F10 M Sport (oyster, sapphire black) I was reading here in the forum that it won't be retrofitable.

But I couldn't believe that and contacted the plant directly via my salesrep. Then he forwarded their email response (in german) to me which included a screenshot of the internal order with planned release date for the retrofit.

Let's hope BMW will deliver now on time.

PS: I'm currently away from home, but can post the internal order# after my return so that your salesreps can refer to this # for further investigation.

Cheers from Munich

What sort of apps would you guys like to see? I own an iPhone development company and I'm trying to get a feel for what people are looking for.

I would say some plugin that enables GPS application to use the cars' gps system, that would be uber cool

Integration of applications like coyote or other speedtrap warning systems would also be a big success i think!

Thank you so much -- I really hope my November 2010 X5 which is a 2011 will be part of this retrofit OEM from BMW! Looking forward to the order # so I can forward to my service rep!

For Fingoware App ideas: I'd like to be able to send a rear camera video signal from an aftermarket camera to my iPhone4 inside the car.
