So when the car is updated the stock software tries to read the fake FSC codes and rejects them. Then your nav stops working, along with other FSC activated features on your EVO.

2 - And this "fix" / restore method, is it basically just running the same app that applied the code in the first place, or we need to contact you again?
1. FSC method removes OEM and replaces with generated FSC set.
2. Software updates removes new, generated FSC set
3. Dealership uses repair kit to restore OEM FSC set.
4. You can restore functionality of step one using same method without needed to contact supplier again.

The Ebay post also states it enables VIM. Has anyone tried that, and had success?

Check Map Version. On page, if Evo has N or higher, you are good to go.

New member here - got my M40i a couple of months ago though it has no CarPlay :-( My old Golf had it and it worked via a wired connection, is this an option with BMW's implementation?
