Tricky6, Thank you. I have now booked the car into a Bedford dealership. The guys in Northampton really can't be bothered.

My Hungerford dealer are more helpful but no better clued up on bugs, software versions, release notes etc. It's a pretty poor reflection on BMW UK really. I know their cars are getting increasingly complex and if there's a software bug a dealer isn't going to fix it but even if they had a friendly "helper" on this site they'd get loads of feedback to identify problems from us (mostly) keen owners. Seems like a no brainer to me... Good luck with your new dealer! |

Funnily I had a loan car from Europcar a few weeks back and they still keep phoning me as they can't locate it. It was returned on the same day it was borrowed and they have confirmed they have the keys. I left it right near the service bay. After 3 calls of telling them the same thing I've had to escalate via Arval to stop them bugging me. I don't have the car. It was left at the BMW dealership. You have the keys. Do I know where the car is? No. This is now 2 weeks after I left it but Europcar are still trying to charge for rental...!? |

My car was picked up yesterday and dropped off by the old fella team so I haven’t had chance to talk with a Techie. Connected Drive didnt fully worked on my last two 5 series either but tbh I only use it for sending destinations and now pre-conditioning. |

My car was delivered with the warning in September, the garage 'fixed' it and no problems until....
Today I received this on my iPhone from the Connected app |

Have you had an iDrive software upgrade since purchase? I'll probably jinx it now but since 11/2019.34 (about 2 weeks ago) I've not had the brake fluid error come back...

I reset the brake fluid bug about 3 days ago and just now it’s popped back up but the last time I went around 2 weeks before the bug came back.
I’m trying to work out if there’s a pattern or something I do that triggers this. Anyone else with any ideas? My cars in for a software update with the dealer on the 27th but reading other posts it doesn’t rectify any bugs so looks like we could be stuck with this bug for a little while. |

It’s about the only thing the 11/2019.40 does fix.
I can’t get any stars through the Portal. Never worked despite deleting/restoring of both Portal and Connected Drive. |

Mine was in today for the latest update.
I was warned by the BMW technician that I shouldn’t of reset the brake fluid warning as the reset resets other thing in the iDrive and the system info of the car. He didn’t go in to much detail just stressed that anyone getting this fault to contact your local service agent to update the firmware and not to just ignore the fault. Make of that what you will. As for the service received from my local BMW service centre, I can’t praise them enough. From the second I walked in I was treated brilliantly and when I got my call to say my car was ready for collection the clean, polish and hovering out of the car made it look like I was collecting a brand new car again. As for the update, I guess I’ll need to see if it’s sorted the little niggles I was getting so fingers crossed. |

Had the car since November, and this morning the car is overdue a brake fluid service by 19 years... still on 07.19.55 software so will get it booked in for the wing mirror which clicks as it opens/shuts and this 'service'. Also got a charging cable recall pop up the other day but not too worried about that as I'm the only one who uses the plug and it fits my socket nicely.

Guess what? Error message has popped up on my G20 330e again today.
I have reset it 4 times since delivery but it won't let me do it now and does not give me the option to reset anymore. Car delivered on 7th December 2019 Software version 07/2019.55 |

My 330e was updated at the dealer to 11/2019.40 on 17/12/19 This has probably already been superseded I’m sure. You need your dealer to do the update to cure the warning. My car has been fine since. I’m quite amazed that they didn’t update you before delivery. This is a well documented glitch. Last edited by Vossy; 02-27-2020 at 02:38 PM.. Reason: to include update date |
