![]() The map update process is so simple, that all you need to do is change your old BMW DVD-map out with a newer version of a map, that fits your make and model. The map is saved on a DVD on older iDrive models, which you have to insert in the DVD-drive of your BMW – These units are called CCC-units. We have tried to explain in as simple a matter as possible. There are different ways of updating your BMW Navigation system, depending on whether you have a CCC, NBT, CIC or EVO system. How you update your BMW Navigation system Here you will find the year of your current map. To check which version of the navigation system that is installed in your BMW, go to your iDrive navigation map, open the settings menu, and scroll down to the bottom, where you will find the menu “Navigation system version”. BMW adds more than 140.000 miles of new road to its maps each year, so you will get a much better driving experience by updating the maps on your navigation system. The last thing you want, when using your navigation, is to be sent out on a wrong route, or suddenly seeing on your map that you are driving on a road that doesn’t exist in your navigation system. New roads are built, old roads are being closed, new roundabouts are being made and a two-way street can be made into a one-way street. If your current map is more than a year old, it would be wise to update it. Whether you need to update your iDrive software or upload the newest map to your BMW Navigation system, keeping your BMW’s iDrive modern should be considered a regular maintenance task. But for a modern BMW with iDrive, it takes a little more effort to keep your car up to date. There was a time where a regular oil changes and the occasional new tires were all the maintenance a BMW needed. ![]()
