CIC Remote Software Activation for BMW

Retrofitting your car with a newer-generation #BMW navigation system# can’t be completed without professional and high quality coding. And with a decade of experience, we at BimmerTech know exactly how to do it right.

BMW CIC iDrive interface is one of the head units belonging to the #Navigation System Professional# line. To know more about this iDrive as well as others, read our blog post.

Our BMW CIC Remote Software Activation provides you with the service you need in the comfort of your own home. Our competent technician will program your CIC retrofit to match the configuration of your BMW, as well as activating the latest BMW map update, #Voice Control# and Video-in-motion, which will make trips in your car much more enjoyable.

After the hardware upgrade and our BMW software update, you’ll be able to use original BMW maps, control the system with simple verbal commands and turn on movies for your passengers. How could your driving experience get any better than that?

Please note that you must already have installed a complete CIC retrofit, including connecting a USB port to your iDrive unit, before activating your hardware and map update.

CIC Software Activation is performed through a remote coding session with a dedicated BimmerTech technician after all the iDrive auto parts are installed.

BMW navigation update of your new CIC retrofit is a very simple process that takes no more than 30 minutes. After you complete your order, we send you a coding cable (only if you don't have one and you add it in the top Option section).  Once you receive it, there will be instructions on how to schedule a coding session for the time that suits you best. During the session, you just plug in the cable and follow the instructions from our technician.

To prepare for your BMW iDrive update coding session you will need a laptop running Microsoft Windows and a WiFi internet network that you can connect to in your car. A Mac computer running Windows might not work with some E-Series cars. The coding cable must be plugged into your laptop’s USB port.

Watch the video to understand the cable activation process better.

The CIC Remote Software Activation package includes everything necessary for cable coding:

• Remote activation service
• Coding interface (if you add it to your order in the top Option section)

A cable coding session can be conducted on all modern PCs and many Mac computers running Windows or MacOS. Find out the requirements for the cable coding session.
