This was discussed a little while back, wheels shown on Idrive are the multispokes which is annoying.
As I remember you noticed first. I hadn't noticed but since you mentioned it, it's bugged me ever since. smile

Love this. There's a pandemic going on and you're all worried about the spokes on your alloys on a fking car key.

It doesn't worry me, it bugs me. As do people who don't know the difference between a key and a dashboard.

I did reflect the other day that I don't like an image of the car on the dashboard at all, irrespective of the spoke count.

All rather tongue in cheek

Has anybody else tackled the kidney grill swap yet? Complete ball-ache or not too bad to do? Any tips or insight welcomed!

Yeah seems crazy it's not just a software update!

does it appear in the app? mine is a December 2019 built, has the 360 and all the other required packs but doesn't appear in the app

It might end up been the same as the Drive Recorder which appeared last year and was initially said to only be available June 2019 builds onwards. However it seems to show on the Connected Drive store for all 8-series provided they're running new software. Works on my March 2019 build 840d.

I am taking you have 360 degrees cameras?

Yes 360 cameras are needed, I think in the UK you can only get those via the Technology Pack.

The other key prerequisite is the newer iDrive software, mine was updated February this year. Without that you won't get the option

If you have both the above the option should appear like this in the Connected Drive store:

That's looking smashing Simon! Did Miglior fit the grille for you? Looks like they've done a great job on the paintwork!

So only issue I have is the replace battery warning.

Did those who had this problem reset iDrive or disconnect battery for a few mins and reconnect?
