You can learn the system software version by backing up your driver profile to a USB drive using iDrive. Mount the drive on a computer file system and open the profile data file in a text editor. The value of the <i-step> tag is the system software version.Mamaci3 said:Dealership did a software update that cleared the coded mods I set. They didn’t really know what the latest “I” update included. Anyone know?
BMW dealers don't install updated software at no cost unless an i3 owner complains about a problem that is solved by updated software or an official maintenance campaign requires updated software (e.g., the defective KLE replacement, the motor mount bolt replacement, and the driver's airbag reprogramming). BMW doesn't publish a list of the changes or improvements implemented in each system software version, so it's not easy to learn what system software version might be worth installing.MKH said:Does BMW alert you when a software update is out & needed - to go in and have it loaded? Or does the dealer just do it whenever you go in for service (which could be a year after the update was released).
