What is your iDrive9 software version? I live in Taiwan and I just called my dealer and they told me the function is not working now. The function may be need to wait for a software upgrade.

My 2024 X1 28i made in November came with ID9 11/2023.25 & delivered to NY in December 2023. I’ve seen no available OTA updates since. I just took it in for service for another issue & BMW service said no dealer software update is available. That was surprising because I’ve seen others on this forum say they have 11/2023.45 or .48 which they got when they took their x1 to their dealer. I’m aware that updates typically are rolled out slowly to specific areas. I don’t know where they were.

If you work out how to activate the eSIM let me know. As per the guide on how to do it there is no option in the my bmw app for 3rd party or on the portal. So while the car comes with it, it sounds stupid, but I dunno if Australia is allowed to use it?

Just for the record, can you use Firsty?
It is a e-sim provider which allow a basic plan for free with low-speed internet. I don't have a car to test it yet, but it possibly works. Let me know, I am curious |

My app MyBmw has been upgraded to 4.5 and Idrive upgraded to 3/2024.40. But, I don’t have this option shown in my MyBmw…Orz and I got a bad situation is I can not log in my Spotify…. That is a horrible thing to me……
