Software / Firmware Update for 6 series

Hello

I have a '63 plate' 640d since new and it has had several firmware updates until end of Y3/2016 late (and also separate map or bluetooth/phone software updates)

Can anyone let me know if there are any firmware updates available to be applied to the 640d?

I will probably have to pay for it so wondering if there is something worthwhile.

I will keep the car only for a few months until the 8 series comes in but would like to know about the firmware till then

Hello, verry interesting. I have checked for software updates for my 640D but it has never been any new updates available for my car since I bought it in 2016. I have searched here https://www.bmw.com/en/footer/software-updates.html

Where have you found your updates?

PS. Sorry for not answering your question.

All previous firmware updates were carried out by my dealer when I reported issues such as flickering iDrive screen etc.

The link you provided is for Bluetooth phone software only, to recognise newer phone models if there are compatibility issues.

Map updates can be purchased separately.
