I have a 2012 X3 AUC. The sat nav software is ECE 101114.2.16 Road Map Europe Premium 2013. When using RTTI the traffic is displayed on wrong side of the road! Any ideas?

Have you upgraded the maps from a "other" source rather than the BMW way !!

If it's an AUC car, why aren't you simply asking BMW to sort out the problem?

I asked the local AD service desk. Initial response was yes we will reprogram the whole car that'll be £150 and even asking me to guarantee that would fix the problem. Clueless about the fact that the satnav software and the vehicle software are separate so reprogramming the car wont fix it.

I could buy the latest satnav myself etc but why should I pay. In the end the service desk non-technical Muppet is gonna talk to the technicians. I was hoping someone here knew whether BMW have a fix and if what it is.

Out of interest, how do you know the traffic is displayed on the wrong side of the road?

He presumably sits in stationary traffic watching the other side flowing freely whilst looking on his RTTI map showing his side of the road as green and the other side of the road as red.

pretty much but the other way round. Im on a clear carriageway - the other side solid for miles and RTTI is dying my side is blocked and wanting to re-route me.

seems a common problem. just need to get BMW AD to agree and fix under AUC
