Well the sat nav has now stopped again. I was happily driving to the coast and came off the m25 onto the m23 towards Gatwick and I watched as the sat nav arrow slowly lost my position and took me off rd. Now I’m totally lost what I can do as it’s not off all the time but not sure if it’s the idrive ...

Little update. I never got round to ringing bmw but the sat nav has started working again.
Any ideas now why it would drop its signal for 2weeks then all of a sudden start working again

Thanks all

The gps positioning doesn’t change its numbers but the arrow on the screen moves. Not sure on teleservices or sos. Thought it may of been the antenna. Any idea on prices. Would it be covered under warranty as I bought the car only 2 months ago from a 4x4 garage. Thanks for the info. Sent from my iPh...

My sat nav is on a hard drive so can’t update with a disc. I’ve now purchased the latest maps and still no joy.
It still can’t find me.
Think it’s time to call bmw

Well I tried disconnecting the battery this morning for 20 minutes but still no joy. The sat nav still has me driving everywhere apart from a rd. think I may have to call bmw about this one. Have read it might be the antenna in the shark fin but not definite. Anyone else have any ideas then I’m open...

Thanks for the response. Planning on disconnecting the battery today but wondered would that mean I have to re register it or would that only be for a new battery.

Hi all I was using my sat nav last weekend in my 2014 X5 and all was working fine then all of a sudden the signal went and since then the gps is all over the place and it thinks I’m probably 60miles from where I really am. I’ve tried the reboot on the idrive system but nothing seems to work and I ca...

Can anyone recommend where to take my X5 30d for a remap.
Looking to get a standard map on it to take it up to the 40d performance.
I live in the Richmond area so south east London.

Any suggestions with contacts or locations would be great.

Thanks all

Hi all. I’m in the process of changing my bonnet and boot badges to carbon to match the black exterior on my X5 f15. Just wondered if anyone knew the sizes I need. I believe the bonnet badge is 82mm but not sure on the boot badge size or if I’m right on the bonnet size. Any help with this would be g...

Hi all. I’ve had my X5 m sport 2014 for a couple of weeks now and I must say I love it. When I bought the car the previous owner had stuck X5m chrome wing vents on it and I just didn’t like the look of them so I took them off. I just wondered what other people had done to the vents. I quite like the...

Hi all just checking in and saying I’m a new owner. Got myself a 2014 X5 30d black with black leather. Absolutely loving the ride and the build quality so far.
