GBX5 got new Map! My X5 2013 got updated to 2022 new map-Perfect Map. Took less that One Hour. Just Plug-&-Leave USB & motor running & watch on Navigation Map-Screen downloading progress. The only one reminder: Turn-by-turn voiceLady needs to be updated by BMW, if you need voice guidance in places like - ‘Central Market’ parking lot, shopping plaza, business district, etc.

GBNeed Carplay in an older BMW? YES!!! This is it! I watched a few videos prior to purchase, as MMI Prime was very well reviewed and the product turns the dull old i-Drive into a modern CarPlay machine. I purchased the MMI Prime from the website, and it shipped and arrived very quickly. It took me a couple of hours to install, as I also installed a rear camera that attached to the MMI Prime (from BimmerTech). The provided instructions were clear, concise and easy to follow. Every car probably has unique fitment issues as they are all different, my F10 only differed slightly from the instructions, but generally speaking there is plenty of room to secure the unit behind the dash. The cables supplied had sufficient length and was never an issue. The cable connecters were spot on perfect and there are no special wire joints needed. Truly plug and play! Once the unit was installed, it started working immediately and was able to pair my phone on the first try. The i-Drive controller navigation works better than I expected, and the overall the experience makes it a joy to use. The MMI Prime has plenty of settings to tweak it to your own liking (like EQ) and are easy to find and understand. So far everything is working as expected. I'm super happy to have made this purchase and would highly recommend this to anyone trying to add CarPlay in an older BMW.

TRCarplay MMI Prime I bought Carplay MMI Prime. It was a simple installation and my car feels like new. I can't describe how fast my phone connects to carplay over wifi, definitely faster than embedded carplays that comes with the car. You should definitely try

GB2020 BMW XM Radio Installation After recently buying my 2020 BMW I assumed that it came with Sirius XM installed, it did not. I searched the Internet for solutions and found out that it could be installed later, made some inquiries and discovered that through a BMW dealer it would cost about $550, I then came across BimmerTech and discovered that there was a way to remotely install it with a Bimmer technician, and that would save me about $100. I went ahead and bought the software package along with the plug-in cord required connecting my laptop to the car. It took about an hour working with the technician but successfully installed the XM capability. Works great!

GB2019 BMW X3 Apple Carplay install My 2019 BMW X3 came without access to Apple Carplay. I purchased the antenna, OBD connector, and coding session from Bimmer-Tech. The installation went perfect and works just as advertised. The videos provided gave me all the information needed. My wife is thrilled with it! I’m completely satisfied. You saved me a car trade. 🤣🤣
