Anyone have emails and texts displaying on their iDrive 6 display.
There is no option on any of the menu's that I can see. Both my MINI (iDrive 5) and my wife's Subaru do this. Am I missing something? Help!

OK. So anyone have the "Office" function showing up in iDrive?

Yes, both show up on mine, and are f fully interactive with my S8.

Weird, works great in my car. I also have MY18 and S8

I have a Canadian car so maybe there is a difference? When in calls the voice of the other person is fading in and out. Maybe there is something wrong with the hardware.

Fixed. Ordered loaded except for iphone package. I did not realize that this includes office in Canada. VO coded 6NK. All perfect now. Without office the Bluetooth just allows phone and music streaming.
