So it's not like - at least at my dealer - they OBJECT to an owner doing it themselves..
Strange. Well, the roads change so often here I'll probably be looking at an update late this year.
May I be so bold as to ask where you're trying to negotiate for your code?  |
I'm lost. I cannot follow your context.
The code you are talking about may be one of several codes...most notable is the FSC code to active Sirius service- this is supposed to be done at the dealer since it also starts the subscription.
The maps are preloaded and only need new codes for new maps.
I am guessing my source is not in the USA, and may or may not be a "bmw dealer". They may work at a dealer....
We shall see....
