Z4 M40i logo missing from Instrument Cluster

J400uk · 07-22-2019, 05:34 PM

I've noticed a strange software glitch on my Z4 M40i. When the Instrument Cluster is set to Navigation Map View, the Z4 M40i logo at the top disappears. I'm adamant that it is supposed to be there as it displays when the Navigation Map View is off or when I haven't yet started the car. You can also see it in all the press photos.

Has anyone noticed the same? I've had a look at some pictures online and seems quite random whether it does or doesn't appear

Navigation Map View Enabled = Logo missing

Navigation Map View Off = Logo shows

Ignition Off = Logo always shows

Here are the settings I'm referring to in the iDrive:

I am not sure of exactly what problem you are experiencing but the M40i logo at the top of the main display in my car seems to stay there until I activate the navigation system, at which stage it disappears until I “Stop” the navigation system. Hope this helps you.

Had another look at my car. The M40i logo is always present whether or not the box for map display is ticked. It only seems to disappear when I have set the navigation for a destination, as explained in my previous reply.

Maybe a software reset or update is required at the dealer? Definitely a glitch of some sort.

Luckily the car comes from the factory with more than enough ///M badges!

Here is the latest software update and it shows the logo.

Thanks that confirms what I thought, as I've seen quite a few online with the logo showing.

How do I get it updated, can it be done over the air? Or does it need to go back to the dealers?

Set a destination in the Navigation ... logo still displayed?

I had the new software installed last week and the M40i logo disappears when I set a destination in the Navigation system.

I think you need to go to the dealer to get it updated.

Just to close this thread off, I've now had the software updated and it's solved the problem! The Z4 M40i logo now displays at all times, except when Navigation is running. This seems to be the expected behaviour so all good

The software update appears to have ruined your taste in music though.

One question, what functionis the picture of the car with the green "assist" light next to it?
Thanks
