So to be clear guys as I think there is a lot of confusion in this thread. If your istep is March 2021 BUT your Imprint still shows March 2019, is the car updated? What is Imprint anyways? Hard to find data on that online...

It works just like at home. Wake word is the same and turns on just like Hey BMW and it activates all your skills etc. Also now from home I can ask Alexa to lock or unlock the car or check if the windows are open or closed. Before in the app it said Not Supported.

Got the update this past Tuesday. There was some confusion on what needed to happen so my service advisor grabbed the shop foreman. He said there are probably 40 updates for our car and that they're released all the time. He said he can't just update and that I need to tell him something is wrong so I said my CarPlay connection is intermittent. It was good enough for him so two hours later my car was updated free of charge. I can't notice any real changes other than full screen CarPlay, which was the whole reason I wanted the update. Also, my version is dated 6/10/21, but my imprint is still 11/19.

With ID7, I find BMW maps/nav to be good enough that I actually prefer it over Apple Maps and Google Maps. Google used to be hands-down the best, but Apple has made great improvements in the last few years, and apparently so has BMW. |

I am trying to update to the vehicle software for March 2021. You said that OBD unlocking is possible, but could you tell me the software version of DME?[48db,5c64,64e2,2742] |

How do you enable full screen CarPlay? Is it a BimmerCode feature that only is available after software update?
Or in Idrive natively? Also, I really haven’t noticed a difference in ride since update. I’ve asked my wife who basically drives daily, and she hasnt noticed a difference. I also seem to think it doesn’t pull as hard, but my perception could be altered lately since I’ve been mashing an N63 around. Last edited by serpentine; 06-23-2021 at 10:10 PM.. |

I need some help here! I did not start a new post. A couple weeks ago my instrument cluster "blanked" but worked fine after shutting the car down and restarting. I took the car in and the SA said there was a TSB on that and they recommended a software update "to the latest level of integration".
Anyway today I drove the car and got an "Uneven Surface" Warning twice. This was at a flat intersection. If I'm in the wrong thread please let me know. What the heck is this and do I need to take the car back in? |

It's just a traffic alert, nothing wrong with your car.
"The car will even come with what BMW calls Uneven Road Surface warning that will alert the driver of potentially bad roads ahead. The data that makes the system work was collected by a fleet of dedicated vehicles and it has been uploaded to the cloud; it is reportedly constantly updated. BMW also says the iX will have over-the-air update capability." |

I'm trying to figure oit how to check my version? I can't seem to find it in any of the iDrive menus/settings. I have a '21 X3MC with build date 11/20. I have the myBMW app connected but the only reference to imprint I see is attached, but no date.
