Anhartic Posted July 2, 2024 Share Posted July 2, 2024 Greetings Purchased one of these recently. I am now familiarising myself with the dimensions of the object and attempting to understand the functionality of all the control mechanisms. Thus far, there have been no issues. It seems that the previous owner took good care of it. The wife is apprehensive about driving it due to its large size. I have clarified that the vehicle is equipped with front and rear parking sensors, as well as a reversing camera. Additionally, it is a 2010 model that has a satellite navigation system and a sport mode with paddle shift capabilities. I was perusing the command screen and uncertain whether it necessitates an update. Is it advisable to proceed with the update or should I maintain the current state? I believe the maps are from the year 2012. Is it necessary to update them using a disc or can I use a USB drive? Anticipating a long-term ownership due to its exceptional driving performance and the appealing spaciousness in the rear. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantelle Posted July 2, 2024 Share Posted July 2, 2024 The navigation system may be upgraded at no cost, however it requires some patience to complete the process. Adhere to these instructions for the FSC code: Access and retrieve the 2024 maps from this location: https://oemnavigations.com/products/road-map-europe-west-premium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anhartic Posted July 2, 2024 Author Share Posted July 2, 2024 Thank you. I will attempt it. 👍👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownContent Posted July 2, 2024 Share Posted July 2, 2024 The loading time for the new map is rather lengthy. I took a drive to maintain the battery charge for around 50 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anhartic Posted July 2, 2024 Author Share Posted July 2, 2024 I have not yet had the opportunity to test the Map update. My son placed his tablet scanner on the Beemer and it indicated that the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) was around 45 percent obstructed. He was going to do a regeneration process on my behalf. However, I believe there could be one or two sensors that are associated with the DPF regeneration process. I may need to undergo a procedure to have it extracted and thoroughly cleansed. Unless there is an other method of accomplishing it. Apologies, I have never had a BMW with a diesel engine of this particular size and level of intricacy before.

DownContent Posted July 2, 2024 Share Posted July 2, 2024 Occasionally, a signal indicating the end of a product's life cycle is received, even when there is no issue with the diesel particulate filter (DPF). If you inform the automobile that it has received a new diesel particulate filter (DPF), it will undergo the process of regeneration in the usual manner. Attempt a 20 to 30-minute run while maintaining the revolutions per minute (RPM) at about 3,000 in a lower gear. This should initiate a regeneration process if the vehicle need it.

MamaKiddo Posted July 2, 2024 Share Posted July 2, 2024 Reestablish the connection of the diagnostic system and examine the recorded error codes. Additionally, monitor the current operating temperature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
