iDrive issues
3 times In the last week the iDrive on my 2016 X3 has just rebooted by itself for no reason . Anyone else see this happen?

Just driving with the radio on. Wasn't changing anything or messing with settings.

Hmmm take it in to the dealership. On my 2006 330i E90, my iDrive kept freezing and resetting, dealership replaced the entire module and everything went back to normal.

I've been having the same issue, and it's not good. My iDrive would turn off every 5-10 minutes or so regardless of whether I was stopped or driving, radio or bluetooth, no rhyme or reason.
The service dept. checked the computer and said I'd need to make another appt and be prepared to leave the car for up to 2 weeks. I dropped it off 2/8 and got a text that they performed a re-program that did not work. After contacting BMW NA for support, they told me to come get my car today, they can't fix it. BMW told the tech there "should" be an update in "a few weeks" that "may" fix the problem. But there is nothing else they can do. I have a 2017 that is less than 18 months old and less than 10,000 miles. |

Over the last year or two I have had iDrive reboot maybe a half dozen times. I usually notice it because the radio goes out, then I notice the screen is blank, the BMW logo shows up soon after on the screen and then things are back to normal within a couple of minutes. It remembers if I had the nav going and if I did it continues directing me to my location.

Mine started doing it again so I took it in again. The ended up replacing the control head, whatever that means. At least that's what they told me. Problem fixed but I had to reprogram all the media settings and call Sirius to get the sat radio working again. That was kind of a pain in the ass but it works. They said the problem is not common but it happens occasionally.

visions of things to come . . . . mine just started
* idrive / radio rebooted yesterday, not touching anything, took 2 min to come back. .... ( FOUR times now, in two weeks ! ) * shut off the vehicle parked . . . wipers jump up and down once, irregularly. * moves the seat if the wife has HER fob along, not with mine though * had it in for front end RATTLES ! they replaced some parts, more rattles now. * will not delete location from nav (associated with contact list) * will not delete a contact for nav on phone plugged in or not. * will not recognize phone to nav if phone is cabled in (just started) ( was told to delete phone from onboard, wait a couple days and relink it ) Yes i trickle the battery I like this vehicle, its quiet, rides great, comfy, just enough toys, mileage isn't bad but i don't have that warm fuzzy feeling.

+ other associated issues with nav and phone connectivity. . There was a flash screen of an update the other day . . . . . . . BUT the wife didn't let it update, and turned off the car at her stop. Wish i knew how to re-activate it!
