very disappointed by bmw in terms of material selection for the interior. Cheap plastic everywhere on the name of sustainability. BMW should look at the competition on what they are doing before even getting such car in the market. Even the non premium brands offer better interior which looks & feels better than this so called BMW X3. If this continues in no time people will look elsewhere for their next car. Being performance oriented car doesn't meant you cheap out on luxury, both should go hand in hand. Then only it will be called the Ultimate Driving Machine. Please convey our feedback to BMW.
Thanks Jp. Luckily have had a couple deliveries since the hurricane and have had to inform clients of the situation and returning clients wondering what was going on
Switching Gears...Seriously...some simple curtesy from BMW, to keep their customers abreast of whats going on would be nice.. if it was for you brother, and your dedication to the BMW owner.. im telling you they wouldve lost my Business... it still may Happen... but i'll follow you. Lol Be Safe & "WATCHYOR6"
Why isn’t BMW sending this information to customers? A quick email or notification on the BMW app? I’ve only heard of this fix from your post. So thank you.
yes I did that and now all the apps are literally gone somewhere. Even message app is gone and I cant set up my driver profile because when i send the confirmation code to the bmw from my phon app for pairing the bmw doesn't receive it. Btw I have 2022 bmw 530e
@@droneon5575 2022 530e runs idrive 7… deleting vehicle data literally deletes EVERYTHING from the car… tha’ts kind of the point of a reset vehicle data :P
Thanks for this message. I'm in VA. Like others, I'd been having trouble with the app for the past couple of days. I just noticed that both the site and the app has come back up for me and now working properly.
All those saying it was down before the storm and it’s a big conspiracy. Well just maybe they shut down sealed and safes the place and booked to safety for the employees. But that’s just a conspiracy theory too
Thanks for this! I couldn’t get online to make my payment yesterday. The app is also acting up. The climate feature shows ad running when it’s not, the rest of the features see inaccessible because it thinks it’s running the climate.. now I know it’s a bigger problem than just some faulty app.
Thanks for the correspondence. Its unacceptable that there has been no formal anouncement from BMW on a greater scale. We get this from a local dealership. This outtage has been there since at least Tuesday. Days before the storm made landfall. They are using the storm as a cover. Wonder why MB or Audi havent had issues?
@@MichelFarhiChevillard no worries I don’t believe the issue is the redundancies since there were some in place I believe the issue was that even the redundancies were knocked out… And having redundancy for an entire continent across several states cost a lot of money to maintain and set up… even for a big company like Bmw group
@@MichelFarhiChevillard I for instance, have twin ISP back up one coax one 5G for my home network… Last year power outage knocked out both 5G wouldn’t pick up a signal as my back up, it sucks, you plan for everything you can think of but sometimes Murphy’s law says “F*** you”
My app says no digital functions with my vehicle (not true 2024 m340) and the car is under a cloak? I can’t lock my car on app. Is this normal for what you’re saying?
@@timothykeller1290 for profiles? It’s a combination of onboard saving on internal storage (it is mostly a Linux based system after all) and BMW servers
We can play Ferrari noises on apple car play, where’s the real sportiness of this vehicle? It looks good but it’s overpriced for what reason I do not know.
@@esco.letsgo all the main goodies in these cars are in the chassis… They handle significantly better than they should for a front wheel drive based vehicle
Does this vary from year to year? I have just purchased a X5 M50i I believe it has idrve 7 is there a way to up date? Or is what I have is what it will be?
@@highendtrends3508 ther’es no way to update from 7 to 8 or 8.5 because of a hardware difference. Some models that had idrive 8 were able to get updated to 8.5 because of something called MCU22 (basically an internal graphics card)
I purchased a 2019 i540 hybrid and charged it all night. The battery got to 80%. I drove for 5 miles on eco mode and automatic e drive and the charge died. What do you think can be the issue?
