I know this as my old-style BM54 went u/s and the dealer replaced it with the latest version - Dynamic Routing magically appeared on the Route Selection menu.
You know, the 'old' BM54 tuners aren't too reliable  - They do go wrong from time to time and the dealer will swap it out under warranty for the latest version. Mine was intermittent - sometimes the radio would not come on and needed a 'key off, wait 5 mins' lark. Only happened once in 10 trips, but it was enough to get the dealer to swap the radio.
Of course, if you bought the car with the belief that Dynamic Routing was an installed option (due to the sales brochure) and it isn't, then report THAT as a fault and get them to sort it

Thanks trapdoor - my understanding is that the X3 does not use the M54 tuner - it is a very different dash-mounted CD/tuner to the X5 and is shared with Z4 and there are no differences between Euro and US parts (same part numbers listed for all cars on realoem). The tuner is pretty advanced though in offering MP3/ID tags for dash mounted CD's and TMC. Seems odd that code for Dynamic Routing would not have been incorporated.
The interesting thing is that all the X3 sales docs and the accessory guide use the term "Dynamic Routing" - probably a cut-and-paste from X5 docs.
I've asked dealer to raise a PUMA question to the factory - we'll see what Germany have to say ...
