I have asked my dealer (bmw of Manhattan) 3 times to update it without success, both when it was in warranty and afterwards. now the access port is just 900 dollar piece of plastic in the trunk.

Ok, Thanks for the tip. I was unaware that some 2011's may not work with Cobb Accessport. I love this forum! I'll try loading my Accesport on his car before having him make the purchase.
