Did your subscription perhaps run out? From my understanding, the SIM card is embedded in the ECU/ECM.

I believe there was a general issue affecting all BMW Connected Drive services, some problem with BMW's servers in Germany I was told.

They seem to have this problem from time to time. If you have an issue where the in-car search is retarded and can't find an address properly and the google link is down, you can have the assist people look up the address and send it to your car. My nav had special problems with addresses on interstates. I've only been frustrated enough to have them do this once though.
