nah dont believve theres any way for me to connect to wifi or a hotspot, only have bluetooth

Ah. So unfortunately there’s probably not a way to get your iDrive hooked to the Internet to pull down the service record

#

Unless you activate the BMW cellular data connection and that’s almost certainly not worth it

#

so the mechanic asked me to come back friday, asking me to pay 12£ again and he will "add it manually"

#

i believe he might be paying for a ista license by the hour

#

im just not really sure on how this works and want to make sure its ok for him to be charging me like that
