Resetting iDrive- Make sure the car is on, engine running.
- Reset iDrive by pressing and holding the volume knob for approximately 30s, when the screen goes blank let go. iDrive will then reboot.
If you still don't see CarPlay enabled for life call BMW Assist for further help, 1-888-333-6118. They also said this announcement just happened yesterday, so be patient. It may update on its own. |
Is yours showing for life? they just gave me 30 days for free so my subscribed service shows CarPlay good through 1/05/2019. If I click extend, it says I can pay 300.00 for 240 months (no option for 1 year).
