No Signal
Last night drove home and this is what the navi screenshowed. After this message it shut off and rebooted i guess as the connected services animation showed up and after a couple of minutes things were back to normal. Why would this happen? On startup all was normal.

You could try a few things:
1) VO Code your HU_NBT to restore it to factory settings. 2) Take it in to dealer to check...if you have a faulty unit, it has to be replaced. Here's a bunch of threads with RANDOM reasons for the NO SIGNAL. The main ones deals with comfort access issue, iphone connectivity, and sirius satellite. "For a final Note on the iDrive re-booting issue. Seems as if there were TWO seperate electrical issues at play. Initially, certain 3 Series Non-NAV equipped cars were susecptible to the Siruis XM Carrier signal-even if the service was not activated-initiating random rebooting of the system. That was addressed and corrected by Sirius XM after several months. Another issue-resulting in a similar re-Booting phenomenon-was triggerred by i-Phone interaction with the i-Drive system. Turns out that when there are anything but routine alpha numeric characters (Smilies/asterisks/email addresses), when the car downloads the stored data from the i-phone, the re-booting issue is also triggerred. The BMW Engineers figured this out. Since we,ve eliminated any atypical phone numbers stored on the the iPhone , there has been no additional reBooting in several months." Here are the various threads that talk about it. Nothing really narrowing it down except for the one above for a 3 series for this year. The others are mostly replacement solutions. http://www.6post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=938634 http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...704548&page=12 http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...=679232&page=5 Another forum discusses it being related to USB thumb drive. They say doing a manual reboot of your iDrive helps and just to monitor it after if it keeps happening: http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=938458

This has happened only once to me so far. Was just trying to enter a destination into the nav when the msg appeared. It rebooted and I've seen no ill effects.
