My wife took the X3 in for service and there was a recall on the back up camera anyway. All fixed under warranty.
They told her that there has been issues with the navigation systems lately.

A stressful week for me. If I only know Bimmercode was not compatible with the Vgate adapter that they previously recommended.

As for my 230i I'll take it in when I need service. I can care less about bmw's navigation. I like Waze especially for the police and camera alerts
Glad you got this working. Any idea why they don't recommend the vgate anymore? That is what I always used, though I have not used it recently.
