Noticed it's in the g20 owners manual with detailed instructions about how to use it, with pictures. Hope that means it's on its way!

Isn’t a major drawback that the side and rear cameras will become very obscured with water when it’s raining and dirt in the winter?
My X5 rear camera is useful only half the year, in the winter it seems there is always something obscuring/covering the lens to some extent. With a rear installed dash cam you are more likely to get a better recording through the rear screen. The same with the sides too. Sometimes I have to wind down the drivers window to wipe of a big drop of water from the door mirror camera before parking otherwise the 360 view is hopeless. I presume the front is from the front cameras so will be within the swept area of the front screen so may be ok? |

The drive recorder feature on the 2020 X7 does not actually work. I have a brand new 2020 X7 M50i and shows "Drive Recorder Malfunction" error when I try to activate it manually. I took it to the dealer who gave me a 2020 X7 40i as a loaner car and that too has exactly the same problem. After keeping my car for a week, BMW now says they do not have a fix yet for the problem and there is NO ETA. So essentially, I have a lesser car than what I paid for and BMW does not have any idea when they will be able to fix it.

If you see something you have 20 seconds to hit the button? Come on... I'll be moving my OWL CAMERA into the X when it arrives. To me this is one of the best and simplest dash cameras on the market. It's only downfall is it records the front only. On the plus side, it does also record the interior too! That feature came in real handy when a porter at Audi was searching through my car. I watched her live and showed the service writer while she was doing it. Made a great video. Plus with the Owl Camera I was able to save it to my phone with the touch of a button.

I saw this video over on the Audi forums and I know some folks over at that dealership. Small world. Was this your video?

I never went to service at Hoffman or Motorwerks but I have purchased through them. Solid sales team. Straight-forward. No BS for either in those departments.

Clarification please...
So confused on whether you have to pay for a subscription or not. Can someone please clarify for me?
I just purchased for June 2020 production. (So excited). As part of the Premium Enhanced Package (Canadian), it included the BMW recorder feature. So does this mean that I also need to purchase an annual subscription after some sort of trial period (such as with the other BMW Connected apps such as traffic, etc)? Please help. So confused.

Drive recorder is available after software update 112019.70. I have 2019 x7 purchased in April of 2019 and for a one time charge of 149.00 have subscribed. Tested it out and works fine. Exciting.

When this feature was announced, while others immediately asked technical questions about the quality of the service such as resolution, parking mode, backup to cloud services and such, while that is all important, but first thought was what happens when you get into an accident that is potentially your fault? Are you required to provide the video, and or any other legal implications. And if you deleted the video presumably that action would be saved in your car somewhere which potentially BMW could recover. |
