I have a call into BMW head office, I am lead to believe that any March 09 ordered X5's will be the updated production model?
It is rumoured that the new production will get the buttons around the iDrive but the new iDrive itself will not come until Sept 09 productions changes!

So I'd like to know also if its retrofit.. anyone?
BTW: Mine is an April build because the dealer said that the model number increments by one from April. Given all people who think some kind of iDrive upgrade could come in March09 production it seemed worth the wait for 2 weeks. The code was FF0235 which moves to FF0236 in April. Could be wishful thinking but they don't normally change them he said...
Cheers
