The maximum fuel economy on my 330e is 90.0mpg. It's annoying it can't go above 100, but at least go up to 99.9mpg!

Has anyone gotten the ota in the USA? I have seen very few posters on this topic from the US and I'm hoping to finally get Android Auto in my car.

My phone downloaded the 07/2020 update and transferred it to the car. I’ve now got the same thing that happened with the 11/2019 update.
It freezes on the ‘you will be notified when the upgrade can be installed’. Ensured everything meets the criteria, won’t do anything.
If it’s anything like last time, it’ll disappear from the car and my phone in a few days, never to be seen again.
I’m not bothering going to a dealer. Last time I got them to update it manually and they botched that up. I had to find out how to get my idrive working again from the internet.

I had the same problem, as I said earlier in the thread, the battery has to be fully charged before the update will begin and continue to install and because I was only doing small commutes my battery wasn't at optimum charge. I went for a 30 mile round trip on the motorways around ours and the installation started and completed straightaway when I parked up. Wouldn't be so bad if it actually told you the reason why it's not starting, but searching on the net I found the reason.

I do a 24 mile commute every day, so it’s not a battery issue.
As I said, I happened to me before. The update just vanished

I'm in the same boat. "preparations completed for the upgrade to version 07/2020.54. you will be notified when the upgrade can be installed. installation only when stationary. see owners handbook for more information" message had been on the cars idrive for last 4 days. Things I've tried so far are charging the battery and driving 25 miles. Will do a longer drive at the weekend to see if as others have posted it will finally install. I've contact bmw connect but they've not yet replied. Any other options I could try?

Strange as I'd have said the same as Keith_C. I was unable to hook up the phone to speed the update up so have been stuck on 60% since yesterday.

As it's only just came round to other parts of the UK in the past week I very much doubt the US will see it before we hit the middle of this month and perhaps even until the end of it.

Just got it on my euro car last week. It's a really strange process that seems to drag out over days. It's actually still not done now, said it would wait for the right time to reset and finish the installation. Might be the case if you only do smaller journeys a lot.

Which is exactly what mine did apart from disappearing, but I sorted it within 48hrs. I had the same screen telling me it would notify me when it was ready to install, twice it started to install then failed! So, as I said, I did one trip, probably 35miles all in, after seeing other people with the same issue and when I stopped it instantly told me it was ready to install and completed in about 25 mins or so. I thought there was no issue with the battery but many people on the net thought the same, some used a charger to get it topped up, I, like many others went for a longer ride than my normal commute and hey presto. There was a link somewhere with a checklist and one of the criteria was after a journey of 60km or so.

Here's the thread where I found out about the battery issues.

Mine has 7.2020.48 with no Cloud maps so I was concerned mine wouldn't get 7.2020.54 which i assume has them. Thankfully yesterday it finally said downloading update. Just charging the car now to try and make it start the install!

Mine is Feb 2020 build and still waiting...

Mine is a July build, so possibly. Install only took about 10 minutes once the software was downloaded. I had the car fully charged.

Hi one quick question.

Were you notified via the app or the car display ?

Mine was on the car display. But then when I left the car my phone had a notification from the app saying it was ready also. I did an hour journey and it was ready to install when I stopped but wouldn't then. i am charging the battery ready for a longer journey on Monday so hopefully it will install then (M340i Touring March build)

According to the release notes on BMW’s website my current software version on my UK 69 plate 330e is 2 software updates behind the latest one.

OTA states there’s no update for my version.

Spoke to BMW service and they need my car for a whole day to check and update my car.

Reading some of the posts on this thread, people have updated there’s so not too sure why some can update without a garage visit but I have to have my car off the road for a day just to update my software.

Am I missing something when searching for the update?, tried via the iDrive system in the car and the phone app, both don’t find an update.

Oh well, looks like another trip to BMW service.

For me, Connected app notification first and then it also notified in the car as soon as I got in.
