Software Upgrades???

I have been told that there are many upgrades for modules in my 2011 3281 xDrive. I have also been told that the floorwell module will crash when upgraded. Anyone have any experience with this? Cost?

It takes a couple of hours:

The FRM "crash" is related to problems with the boot sectors of the EEPROMs. You may not have this issue at all.

I checked to see if I had this problem using iCarly.

My indi performed the firmware update for free when I took it in for other service work.

www.bmwtechinfo.com, full access to ISTA/P which is the dealerships programming system.

Just need an ICOM interface and a stable power supply. Although you're on your own if you kill a module with it (unlikely, but it happens).
