Would a USB update wipe an engine remap?

CARR601 · 02-15-2019, 10:28 AM

My 320d is currently remapped, I have checked on the BMW website and there is a new software update out for the iDrive. I'm hoping the new update will sort some of the connectivity issues with my phone. Is there any chance that the update could wipe the map?

No, you should be fine

Absolutely definitely not.

Thanks for the replys. I've performed the update and all my coding has been kept so I can assume the engine remap is fine.
