Exclamation 3 ways to update the system's software

No need to shoot the messenger but this is what I was told by a corporate Genius. There are 3 ways to update the software:

1. At the dealership,

2. OTA thanx to iDrive version 7.X. The G05 is one of only 3 that is capable of doing this. The dealership has to have first done the tech drills in house regarding compression and such to send the large files over the air....or something to that effect,

3. Downloading the update to a clean USB drive for a transfer while sitting in the car using this file download link. https://www.bmw.com/content/bmw/mark...e-updates.html

Bueno bye

As told to you a quite a few times today, iDrive can not currently be updated OTA. While the X5 has the ability no updates have been pushed out OTA and there is nothing saying when it will happen.

Look you hypocritical chit stirrer, read the caveat I stated in #2.

I never said when it will happen, I could care less. It's been designed into the car with iDrive 7.0 and when my dealership wishes to get the file out to the huge numbers of owners then I guess it will. Take your juvenile fights to a Genius, genius.

The fate of the western world doesn't depend on your infallible wisdom.

You are really something, I can see why people say to ignore you.

The whole conversation was about how the X5 iDrive is updated. My initial post said it had the ability to do OTA but none were done that way. This entire time you have said it can and is being done now. You act like a third-grader and embarrass yourself and this whole site.

Depends, if you keep posting crap on the Audi forum, which started this, as you have been I will be there. Actually anytime you post misinformation I will be there to provide accurate information. Given that your reputation is not one as being the paragon of accuracy or honesty, I have a feeling I will be busy.

"Honestly busy" trolling me.

I have a feeling you're nothing but some wacked out full-of-himself, self righteous puppy with no life but to troll forums or for some aberrant desire you love me....considering you follow me everywhere I go. Sorry, I'm taken.

Get a life dude.
