BMW online in Europe
 

Hello,
I'm based in Europe and my car is equipped with BMW Online services.... the weather, news, etc feature. How to activate this? Do I plug in a SIM card somewhere? Or does it have to activated only be a dealer with some sort of contract? Thanks

It varies from country to country, in the UK you need a contract - normally a 3 year contract is included in the purchase, but then you need to stump up some money for it after then (my view is that it is quite expensive for what you get)

Had it on my old 530d and used it exactly once........to get them to send an address to the car and initiate the sat nav so wifey knew where she was going......I must admit I was impressed with that
