I am slowly preparing for my move to Europe.
How easy would the switching on the navigation would be with Europe maps? Would there be coding involved or just installing European maps?
My vehicle is actually a 2020 X1.
Thanks again.
I think you have iDrive 6 in your X1. Take a look at the following thread: https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1173061

It seems that you can do it through something like bimmercode. I haven't read of anyone ever needing to physically change out the stereo when making the move overseas.

As for the maps, I don't have any experience with that, but you should just be able to just load the European maps on a USB drive and update that way. If you get the maps, I would make sure you have both and just test it, if it works, just reload the us maps after until you make the move.
