I got my Silver BMW USB Key Fob in the mail Friday. It contains a couple of flash files - marketing stuff and a link to BMW Owners Website. You can simply delete the files or reformat the USB drive for personal file storage! Approx 2GB.

Just received mine yesterday; I was not expecting to find a usb inside since it's been 7 months since taking delivery so it was a nice surprise and I guess everyone will receive one sooner or later.

My question is does anyone have any ingenious ways to keep the cap from falling off? I would like to keep the usb on my key-chain but the cap comes off from the slightest movement.

BMW should institute a "Buy 6, get the next one free" policy for people like you! or , at least, a "Platinum-Edition" USB drive.

Having said that, I actually never carry around the BMW flash drive in my pocket (I do use smaller cheaper ones) because the BMW piece weighs "a ton" and is too big to plug into my USB hub.

I must say I do not miss it.
By the way I got £1000.00 compensation from BMW UK for my Steering rack going wrong
Well pleased.

Yes, the surprise was ruined. Hopefully, though, made up for by the information subsequently supplied that you can plug it into the glovebox USB port so you can export your profiles, such than when you go through a software upgrade, you can import your saved profiles when the existing ones are wiped out by the upgrade process.

Just sayin' ...
