I imagine BMW will only send these microSDs to the dealers, but I'm thinking if there is a way to just get that image off the microSD, people can just fix this themselves without having to visit the dealer at all… in fact I don't know why BMW doesn't just issue this update online like they do for the iDrive software updates.
