Or maybe you could fit a higher capacity hard drive, if the vehicle is able to recognize it.

$2300?

I know.

Warranty- car is a 2012 with 32k miles. Crazy not to let BMW repair it and retain my warranty.

Replaced two nav units on the E39, one CCC on the 2010X5, and this... all paid for by my friends at BMW.

PS Say, I do have a failing amp on the DSP E39 M audio...probably a failed electrolytic cap on one of the input stages- with heat I get this odd motorboating that escalates into a squeal. Fix is to open the trunk and drive around to cool it. Very classy. Need to rip that puppy out and open it up one of these days.... havent found anyone that fixes those!

they didn't say anything in that thread about performance. they just said SSD drive will live longer than the original since it won't be affected by temperature/vibration

they also linked this thread which tells you how to increase the size of your music partition
