I'm still waiting for someone to start a class action law suit against BMW for stating that all their iDrive vehicles can be updated via "Over the Air" (OTA) updates. Yet this isn't possible in the US currently. False advertising at it's best! |

I remember when I first picked up the car and telling my wife. The car feels so slow at highway speeds.
Checked against the GPS yesterday and I'm about 3 MPH off. I'm on the latest software as well. |

reverse that... the speedo reads higher than you are actually traveling.

Mine has been nearly perfect since a software update last fall.
Speaking of speed, I'm impressed how easy the 50i engine can reach 70, 80, 90 MPH and it's smooth as silk. I live in PA and there are many divided highways with 55 MPH speed limits! Traveling at 55 on any of these highways will get you run over since most everyone drives at least 10 MPH over. I just don't get PennDot's thinking. The PA Turn Pike only recently increased the max speed limit from 65 to 70 MPH. But divided highways at 55 MPH have got to go! |

Driving through PA almost gave my a brain aneurysm. 55mph was like standing still. Too many police so I kept it under control. |

I just had to pick my son up from college 3 hours away due to the health situation and spent a lot of time comparing the X7 speedometer and the Waze speedometer and they match now. The iDrive firmware update completed a few weeks ago at my first service seems to have solved the issue. 11/2019.55 |
