Where did you hear about a software fix in September? This link has that SIB:

Unless I missed something, the SIB does identify the problem but doesn't make reference to a software fix in September. From pp 5-6 of the SIB, under "Known Issues":
"2. During operation, the Entertainment source spontaneously switches from audio device (iPod, MP3 player) to FM radio:
¡ Select the audio device as the Entertainment source manually. Disconnect/reconnect the device concerned if necessary."
That fix doesn't work on mine, and I don't see a reference to a software fix. Is there a supplement to this SIB or did you hear it from the dealer?
If nothing else, it confirms that BMW knew about the issue as of May (nice of them to keep selling the option without telling folks BTW), but I'd like to confirm that they know their published fix is BS.
