"Point of Interst" Online Search not working via Nav Voice Commands

Hey friends,
I've had my F15 for about two weeks now. The past few days when I enter in a voice command for a point of interest it's no longer finding any entries.

For example I will say "starbucks" or something basic and it comes back with no results. It was working previously. I also try to manually type in the same and no luck.

Has anyone run into this and know how to fix it?

I did code my vehicle to british english instead of american english. Would that have any impact on this?


Many thanks!

Mine did that awhile ago while running an errand, I had to enter the actual address in manually. When I was finished in the store and came back out to the car it was working normally again.

Btw, is the British voice male or female?

Wondering if someone the system reset during coding made it lose the internet connection

Mine works great every time. Not sure if it matters but I say the place then town and state. For example: Starbucks, Paramus New Jersey.

Quickie update: I just spoke with the "BMW Genius" line and they mentioned a current known issue with the Google places integration. This is has been going on for about a week and they expect approximately another week to fix.

I'l post again if I have any more updates.

I know this isn't answering your question, but wouldn't it be easier to use your phone with Google Maps then SHARE via Send To Car application? That's what I do and it sends the location directly to my BMW ASSIST MESSAGES.

You should take the car for service if your car internet is not working though.

The funny thing is that the internet is working- it's just the 'point of interest' online search that's not.

I used to be able to hit the voice command button, then say 'point of interest' then 'Starbucks' or 'polish restaurant' etc.
