As far as I know, you do have entrynav, it's just the name of the base NBT model and has nothing to do with navigation. I have F22 220i built 01/2016 with no NAV, 6.5" screen and the simple 3 top buttons iDrive controller. The NBT system is made by magneti marelli and it's enterynav.It's not written anywhere, not even on the unit itself.

Hard to believe that your car can't be fitted. I did the swap today with 8.8" from f30 and it just work (with coding).

TO be 100% sure, take the dash trim off and take a picture of you system (top part with the stiker) and post it here.

Hello,
I just bought F21 LCI, 07/2017.
Can you please suggest me which part would be compatible from F3X?
F2X displays are currently selling for 400+ pounds.

Touch I-drive Controller retro fit coming within a couple weeks if anyone is interested I can add it to this thread or make a new one let me know!

with part numbers and install/coding process
Hey I'm looking at manual m240i's right now, do you think this upgrade is still viable? It seems like all of the cars with Nav are somehow >$5k more.
I would really like some input here as I can't find much info on upgrading the m240is screen and if the process is different.
The process is the same , I would go for doing the screen before paying extra

Anybody got the Video in Motion to work after the swap?

I successfully swapped the screen but can't get the videos to play... I coded every possible entry (done it before in other cars)

Any suggestions?

Hi, I am really happy to see this much people did their retrofit successfully!
I would like to ask you guys if it is possible for me to swap my 6.5" screen with the 8.8" one but with the part number ; 9292248 02 9 . My vehicles production date is 09/2015 and it is a Pre-Lci F22 M235i. I would be more than happy if any of you guys did a similar swap! I am ready to buy the screen just waiting for your approval

I have a 2016 M235i manufactured 2015-07-13. My factory 8.8" screen is delaminating badly and I'd like to replace it, but finding an OEM has proven difficult (for a reasonable price). Can anyone tell me if I can just swap a part # 65509292248 without doing any coding, since I already had the 8.8" screen from the factory?

Thank you in advanced!

Update on this:
I purchased the screen, installed it, turned on the car, and it was just a blank display. I suspect that I need to adjust the following value:

HU_NBT -> 3001 EXBOX -> DISPLAY_VARIANTE: bretes_display

I suspect mine, by default, is set to:

HU_NBT -> 3001 EXBOX -> DISPLAY_VARIANTE: schmales_display

I will report back with my findings, hopefully tomorrow when the OBDlink CX arrives.

So I could not get this working unfortunately. When I connected BimmerCode I got “HU_NBT_EVO” instead of HU_NBT. It was already coded as bretes_display.

Anyone have any suggestions??

Another update..
Here's my original display (pictured below)
Apparently I have the "Navigation system Professional" option S609A
Pretty sure this screen I purchased is indeed not compatible. Now on the search for a new 9385202 screen for less than the insane prices I'm finding..

Another development! I found a 9385202 from a 1 series in Lithuania for $400... everything matches 1:1 except for the serial, manufactured date, and lot # (and the last digit of the part # but that's just the index #) hoping this works!!
(wow they were still making these in 2020!)
photo below is the replacement screen!
