Use NavCoder (very cheap!) or go to BMW and ask them to change the languages using the BMW diagnostic tools.

navcoder + interface is a cheap and fast coding solution for navigation/communication on ibus cars...far more easy to use then original bmw tools like inpa or sss...trust me, i've tried all

I concur, navcoder **IS** the tool to have.

i ask to bmw dealer for how to change the language and the answer was to change the mk4 unit for 650 euros (no good solution) :P

i have also reed about navcoder ccfj1 but he need a lot of skill to use it and cables, laptop to connect to the car. etc..so i do not think that is the best solution for me.

also about the V32 ? whene i install it to 4:3 mk4 the logo lose the resolution and stretch it ..

can i use the same version but change the dimensions of the logo? if yes what is the dimensions for 4:3 aspect ratio?

thanks again!

Your Dealer is WRONG.

The Dealer programs the languages for the car based on his market.
Just like he programs the Car-Key-Memory according to your wishes.

He simply uses DIS or GT1 and sets the desired 3 x languages you want.

then, when instructed by the nav computer, the dealer inserts the OS disc so that the new languages can be loaded.

Remember, the systems in these cars are now over a decade old, so many dealers have forgotten how to do the initial vehicle configuration (that they used to do years and years ago..)

i bileve you.... but my dealer is greek and not german:P

he prefer to sell another mk4 unit for the cost i think...

i must search deeper this option. thanks a lot mate....

BUT if i don't find any way from the dealer. what can you suggest except navcoder?

can i make a coocking version 32? in order to change the languages?

thanks again!

The language options are coded to the unit, and loading a new build of the OS is not going to change that setting. You basically have 2 options. One is to have the dealer recode the nav drive for you, and the other option is to use Navcoder to do it yourself.
