Does anyone have RTT working right now?
Mine is not working either and I did not update to ver 25 yet.

Could it be coincidence that the whole system is down right now?

My RTTI works and I haven't gotten flashed to 25 yet. With all the problems so far caused by a few iterations of 25, I may wait till its all cleared up. I really want the new interface though, but not enough to give up RTTI.

This update is for the newer hardware available in several models.

The only way to know what version you have is to ask the installer.

Thanks, so when you say installer I assume you mean the factory if so do they tell the dealer on the vehicle info that they have on thier system or can the dealer tell through the diagnostics system?

Do you know which models?

hey, does it cost anything to get the update

other than the headaches and lost time associated with taking the car in multiple times, and correcting the new problems created the various versions of the software, no - it's covered under warranty as mentioned in the Service Bulletin posted earlier in this thread

My dealer was about to do the upgrade to the 25.x software but the shop foreman informed me that they would not do the software ver 25.x currently as it has killed a few cars and they are still in the shop awaiting for more info from BMW NA. They said to wait a few more weeks until they know more unless absolutely necessary.

They said they will keep me advised....

I am scheduled for my software update this wednesday. Now i am apprehensive..should I wait?

[richone52]

Basically your call. I would ask your dealer what experience thay have had with the current upgrade. I know it killed a few x5s and X3's. I decided to error on the side of caution as I want to search for POIs but have no other issues.

Let us all know what you find out.

I get the TI+ icon at the bottom, but when I select info it just says downloading data and I never actually get the info.
