Had I been getting a car with business nav around about now or early March I don't think I would be too happy!!!

I thought tyre pressure monitoring was standard anyway (it's a legal requirement)?

I didn't think the Modern model was going all together, but was dropped on 328i, 330d....

I think in the UK at least we only get a flat tyre warning.. but not the PSI/BAR as per the US.

Shame for me as this would be a handy feature - car is going to build now. I know you can turn pressure monitor on via coding but its useless as pressure is not shown on the car image due to lack of sensors.

Cool.

What's Bluetooth streaming on navigation?

The LIM feature is really handy, love it in camera zones.

Sorry Yes, only being removed from the 328i, 325d, 330d. About time in my opinion, i'm surprised anyone ever opts for it.

They don't look too bad in the flesh, but they aren't a very popular model in the UK....

So anyone recently got a car with pro nav hasn't missed out on anything g then!

[MrB]

So it's already been announced that the price for the nav options is going to come down as a result of these updates but any news on whether base prices will be increasing as a result of the added shiny things?

I am in exactly that situation!

Well estimated delivery 21st March, so i really don't know if i'll get the changes or not. Apparently they'll change on build dates of 10th March.

If the 10th is a cut off date then I can't see you getting it I'm afraid. I'm basing that on past build/delivery dates.

Well, long story but in short mine was 2 months! It got 'lost' apparently and to this day I still haven't had an explanation as to why. I would hope that yours isn't that long but a lot of people on here have been saying a good few weeks. I'm sure someone will step in with their times...
I wish you luck though...fingers crossed buddy

[pmheadwired]

My dealer told me mines was going into build but I canny find it on the Vinadloo archive calculator ya wee stinky man!

Excellent, with delivery of 18 April, I may get these changes, no great shakes if not though.

Oh nuts!

I just have to hope that my car is delayed to April then!

Looks like some changes to packages as well...

BMW will offer a new innovation package for all 3-Series models. It includes Xenon headlights, adaptive cornering lights, the BMW Head-Up Display, the High-Beam Assistant and Speed Limit Info including No Passing Indicator.
