I did just the opposite. I did the cic controller swap, then I wanted the engine software update. Had I taken it to the dealer, i would have had to put in my old controller b/c they do engine and idrive together. Instead, I took my car to a local coder, who was able to only update the engine software and left my idrive software alone. It saved me money since he was cheaper than the dealer and the hassle of swapping controllers again.

Thanks Mdoso, you have been a lot of help.

I will try Bimmersport in Mississauga. Hope it works, I want to rid the old I-Drive knob.
