Aus NZ Premium 2016 roadmap is available

NPVPositive · 01-08-2016, 11:12 PM

Just upgraded my old 2011 1M navigation to Roadmap Premium 2016 . . . FSC code cost me US$50, map cost me zero!

Thank you internet.

Highly recommend dracon@gmail.com (a guy in Canada well known on the Bimmer forum) if anyone else is interested in going down this path.

Nice one! What's the process?

martymil · 01-09-2016, 01:59 AM

2016 maps aren't out yet

hope you didn't pay for hacked 2015 maps.

I just paid 129 dollars aud for the real deal from the dealer.

I recently had a dealer installed map update. Mine also says 2016 Premium on the software info. Cost around $90

EDIT: paid $94 incl. GST for the Map update. There was probably a small labour charge in addition, but I am unsure of exactly how much as I had other jobs done at the same time. $129 from Marty sounds about right

Just send Andrew (dracon@gmail.com) an email with the last seven digits of your VIN and PayPal US$50. He'll give you a link to the map, and generate an FSB code based on your VIN, plus instructions.

Basically you copy the map files onto an empty USB drive and then upload through the slot in the car's glove box. The car will prompt you for an FSB code, then update the software. It's easy.

I believe the 2016 maps came out in late Sept (though I don't claim to be an expert at all)

Bugger, that's about the same as I paid for my update. Last time I asked the dealer they wanted much more than that, so prices must have come down a lot . . . . at least I didn't have the hassle of going to the dealer.

martymil · 01-09-2016, 05:37 AM

Well I got my map done at the begining of December and 2015 where only available

Nice one, I'm going to have to do this. Where did you get it done?

MrBlonde · 01-14-2016, 05:11 PM

Just had a BMW update and it's marked 2016

martymil · 01-14-2016, 05:20 PM

Did you get it done at bmw ?

mrphil · 01-14-2016, 08:34 PM

Funny cause I was at my dealership the other day and they report no new maps for New Zealand

martymil · 01-14-2016, 08:39 PM

I think these guys brought fake hacked 2015 maps

It's easy to change a date for a hacker

Not saying they are but if bmw hasn't got them, we'll come to your own conclusions

Edit

Just got of the phone with BMW, there is no update to the 2015 maps from BMW Australia

andrew@southernBM · 01-15-2016, 12:11 AM

BMW usually update these every Sep/Oct. You should be able to get 16', actually i am sure we have done some. I'll have to take a look next time we are doing one. Retail from BMW are only about $90ish nowadays.

martymil · 01-15-2016, 12:13 AM

Spoke to bmw sylvania and it's not out yet

I'd be pretty surprised if this is a fake.

martymil · 01-15-2016, 01:27 PM

Then what the hell is going on here

They went on the computer and checked

Apparently there is no update to the 2015 maps

Piets94 · 01-15-2016, 02:17 PM

If more than a few have 2016, that's no coincidence. More likely that the information on their computer hasn't been updated. Could also be that the latest map is unchanged as far as extra roads/etc from 2015?

Side note, I went in for the update on Marty's heads-up about the price drop. Thanks Marty!

martymil · 01-15-2016, 02:23 PM

I'll be getting on top of this today with my dealer, checked my version number and its different.

They'll will be getting a reaming today, wouldn't want to be in their shoes after I'm finished with them.

Piets94 · 01-15-2016, 02:36 PM

They were probably too lazy to order in the new enable code and had a few 2015 codes lying around :-)

Haven't seen much difference yet to the old 2012 maps. I doubt there'd be much at all to the 2015. The principle I guess.

martymil · 01-15-2016, 02:38 PM

Nah the codes have to be generated on the fly

Just to lazy to download the latest maps

Edit

Not open today have to wait till monday

martymil · 01-18-2016, 12:56 AM

Well I got a phone call from bmw today and they are saying there is no 2016 maps out yet

I sent them the screenshot and they are getting back to me
