Thread. Link at top of OP and never changes for future releases.

Well thats the thing. I have been driving. And on local streets the junctions dont show in split screen, unless in arrow screen, or on HUD or instrument cluster if HUD navigation is disabled.

What Im not understanding, is how some people see this and others dont. Or Im not explaining it right.

In my 2013 E70, if split screen was on, for any content the junctions would come up with every turn navi wanted to do. It would start the junction distance count down and then go back to the split screen content after. Nothing like this happens on local streets, only on highway exit ramps. There is very little documentation about this and not much questions/answers, especially for newer cars.

Then yous will not show turns unless you have arrow display. What I do not understand is why you need redundancy in HUD and head unit screen.

Thanks. I dont see it in this manual. I cant say I need it now, just making sure its not there as I could of sworen It was before I started coding.

Im good, getting used to using HUD, instead of main console.

I could not own vehicle without HUD or CA anymore. Only drawback of junction view in HUD is delayed labeling of streets, but updated Nav system is much better at giving driver enough lead time for next step.

Attached is a screen shot with ignition on and the ethernet cable connected showing the grayed out 'Connection via VIN'. Clicking on 'Refresh' makes no difference.

Could my new E-net cable be the problem?

No quite sure. One thing I want to mention though that I gave up running windows in Window mode or parallel etc. it caused to many issues and I ended up running windows from boot up in its own partition - running great/smooth so far!

Got back from the dealer couple of days back. Replaced HUD as it would shut off sometimes for no reason.. All my coding was gone. Re-coded everything I had before, except having problems with number of turn signal blinks (BLINKZYKLEN_ANZAHL_TIPP) Now by default it's Werte=0 and it blinks 3 times. Changing it to 3, 4, 6 or whatever doesn't do a thing.. Using psdzdata version 3.60.0.600, ESysLauncherPremiumSetup_2.4.3_Build_85A and E-sys 3.27.1
Please, help!!.......
Thanks!

Latest Launcher is 2.6.2, but will not make a difference with updated vehicle firmware. Unfortunately, it is no longer possible to code that function.

Did someone find a code to "silence" the gong saying it's lower than 3° celsius outside? Completely useless and quite disturbing.

You can disable the auditory warning when starting the car but, as far as I know, not the one while moving. It is supposed to alert the driver to be aware of black ice.

Wow!!... Please, tell me it's not possible just for now, temporarily.. Future updates should fix that, right?? What a bummer..

I do not have any insider information so I cannot say for sure what is planned by BMW AG. All I know is that as things stand, coding has no affect.

I guess we'll wait and see. Thanks Almaretto!

Is this done through coding? Don't mind the one during driving but at start up is quite annoying actually.

Yes. Through coding.

You are supposed to have Unchecked boxes at "Update MSM" and "Update VCM" under E-Sys Options,and you would not be having this error.

And did you attempt to Inject CAFD into KAFAS and VO Code it rather than flashing it?

But with unchecked boxes or check of update msm and update vcm under e-sys option, I can not read svt. from here start the problem.this is the first error.
The first time when i save the svt file under read the svt not was corect saved in the file SVT under DATA and after start this error all time. when i try to save again error appear

Use Read ECU, not Read SVT.
