@Val era, your 530i is a sport model, however not a M-sport one. E60 had the regular version non-sport and it has chrome weather stripping around the door windows, black trim indicates that its a sports model and has sport suspension etc, and than theres a Msport aka M-technik and thats a full ///M-kit upgrade with ///M suspension, bumpers, rocker panel, round wheel (Round wheel also comes in luxury pakage with 3 step seats) and other ///M goodies. Great video!!!
Hey man! Very nice video! Very helpful. Oh and btw I was wondering if you could give me your advice on my review of the 530i. The only difference is that mine has the M5 look. Thanks in advance and great continuation.
I got a 2003 745i for cheap at 110000 km. Good deal, for a strange car. Really nice to drive, but damn it has all these turn of the century technologies in it that are SO clunky and convoluted lol.
No you can not play music thru bluetooth.. Iphone thinks someone is trying to access its security and does not let the bmw system to connect to all the phones information
I have bmw 530i and when you are in 4.26 min at vehicle check........ my car says next 600 miles go for check but else everything shows ok. like front brake pad, engine oil,rear brake.brake fluid etc is ok. please advice
Val era oh I thought you just had to install the update. I have a 2009 528i so if I updated my idrive would I have the new screen format or would it be the same
@@starpowr314errday back in the day when I still had my car, I even bought a different head unit and it still didnt work.. And did an update. But no videos played only the audio from the DVD.
Just purchased a 2007 bmw 530i. My navigation monitor screen doesn't have gps logo app. I was wondering if have to go bmw dealership and let them add that option to it, or can I get another monitor screen with that option and would it work?
hi.. I have bmw 523i 2007, it's almost like the same you have. but my idrive screen looks diffrent. even for the radio, I don't have the navi.but the previous owner told me it needs the CD. is there any software update I checked on bmw web site, for software update but i didn't find my vechile number maybe because it's ME version. so any help on that. thanks
Val era I think it's smaller than yours. and on the left button I have label called OBC, it has some related info about the journey, also I have on the wheel button two of them doesn't have any function so far, one with voice command icon & the other one if for phone handset.
Damn Roseville auto mall. I could tell by the street names. That’s really cool how it’s local.

You have to buy a different screen. It's to big of a hassle to be honest

It has USB port ?
No
maybe yours was a 525i, all 530i 2006-2010 have AUX-IN option... fyi
Not ALL, AUX - was a extra option until CIC.
Thanks
