8. BLUETOOTH- this is totally redone. You can now select "Start Pairing" in the IDrive (this wasnt possible before) There is also 3-4 new menu options including "Help". Overall, the pairing is quicker on my phone, and the bt connection happens alot faster when you enter the vehicle.
9. The CD interface is totally changed. The CD does not continue playing when you shut off the vehicle anymore.
10. Voice Commands seem to work better.
11. After more time with the system, it appears overall speed is about the same, not faster as I stated above.
12. It appears the transmission shifts at different times than before the update...I need to spend more time driving to determione this as I drove it home during rush hour and it was hard to tell.

When they updated my car to 25.1.1, the steering wheel came down instead of up whenever I turn the ignition off. Setting the seat memory does not return the steering to my preset position either. Did they fix this with the 25.2 version?

I dont have this issue, actually dont have any problems at all (so far, knock on wood). RTTI and Voice commands work fine...overall a great update for me.

When this happened in my vehicle, it was a bigger fix than software. It required a new module for the steering column.

After I picked it up, the tech. had to do one more thing. He started the car, put the steering wheel all the way up, then all the way down, then all the way forward, then all the way back. He then told me to adjust to my taste. It worked great. He said it needed to be "re-calibrated" after the module replacement.

Interesting. Just got mine back and the steering column is going down as well when I turn the car off. Have an appt next week to get it fixed....

That did the trick. I moved the steering all the way up, down, forward, then back. Now it's working as it should. I guess they just forgot to calibrate it. Thanks.
