Yeah it kind of sucks for those who don't have CarPlay offered, which is almost as bad as charging for CarPlay when it comes standard on an entry level Kia/Hyundai.

Not all activations are equal, some have the ability to restore your headunit to factory condition before a dealer visit - this means that the latest i-step won't cause issues. The unit won't be bricked with the latest i-step, it is an issue with FSC creation dates. But not updating is the best bet.

I stopped by a local dealer today and attempted to verify this on a new vehicle built on 08/18 and have confirmed that screen is still limited.. At least here in North America, can't speak for the ROW. If anyone else can prove otherwise, please share. |

Which is only 3 weeks after mine. As far as i know there are already 3 or 4 newer levels than mine is. So you might expect that you are not on the latest level

Thanks for the video. Jumping through that many hoops to switch into or out of CarPlay is ridiculous. This is absolutely terrible functionality in a BMW. I'm sorry I spent $300 for Apple CarPlay in my '17 M2.

The issue seems to have gone away for me and the phone now consistently pairs withe the car. The gremlins seem to have gone away.

As suspected mine is the P version :
We don't have the connect drive App Store can't even purchase it that way. Not sure if there a code I could purchase from the dealer Anybody knows if the 6NS option would still need the WiFi part? wibbles any idea?

6NS is an older version of Enhanced Bluetooth, 6NW, 6CP or 6WD are the only options that would give the wi-fi antenna. Enhanced BT can be coded without the need for the antenna.

If you want Carplay to work properly then yes it needs fitting.
