This is an older post.. but do we have to do a DVD update to 2014 first to get it to update to 2019 via USB?

But also found this, so not sure.. BMW says my software is up to date
"We strongly recommend customers with cars made before 03/2010 to have your car firmware updated from local dealers in order to update the 2019-1 and future maps by USB memory stick."
I called my dealership and they have no idea what I was talking about...

My assumption is the firmware needs to be updated as others have stated.

Production: 09/2008 for me. But I thought Gary said he was 03/2009 and he was able to get it work flawlessly
