EDIT: - I'm in Australia & am using V14 map which has TMC support
Also - I've gone into the Navigation menu & selected Traffic Reports & selected TMC
In Australia the TMC uses a conditional access system, which I do not think is supported in the BMW system of your era.

The nav is not receiving standard TMC data so cannot use it, hence TMC=OFf

Complain to suna - the guys who run the system - if you don't like it...

Also: verify the map has the location code database on it!
Look for the TMC files on the map disc...
