Assist will not work in "Euro" mode from my understanding and in that case recoding is neccessary to get Assist back. I'm not sure whether going back to a previous version and then upgrading again will work or not. I wouldn't think that would. Do a search on the topic. There have been many posts. Good Luck. Keep us posted.

That is exactly what I was talking about in a post erlier in this thread...
V 28 found here is the european stuff, when I loaded ver 27.1 from here it
put the nav in Euro mode and I lost Emergency, code, Aux Ventilation and BMW Assist VIN. To make the point clearer, US $tealers have a different V28 that will upload and update the the NAV (OS so to speak) but will leave the active state of the OBC alone including Emergency, Aux ventilation, Code and BMW assist. Feet will stay the same and the mesuring appears to be more accurate when the system points to a turn or an address. I had to pay close to a $ 150 to find that out. So once again, do not rush into upgrade if you want your US nav to stay in US...
Special care if your car is leased... they want it back the way you got it or you will pay again for the fix.
