BMW X6 Diesel 2009: Navigation system failure with high mileage

Navigationssystem is not working

Hello everyone! I have a problem with my 2009 BMW X6 Diesel. At the moment I have 221785 km on the clock and my navigation system is worrying me. It no longer works at all - I suspect it could be a screen failure. Have any of you ever had a problem like this and what did your mechanic say? I didn't have the best experience with mine last time unfortunately. Thanks for your help!

Hey, so I haven't had that luck with my 2012 BMW X5 Diesel at all. However, last year, my car had to go to the garage because the automatic transmission felt strange, and it had actually resulted in a serious problem. I can't tell you much about the navigation system, but a screen failure sounds pretty serious. Maybe this will help you, although it's not necessarily the solution to your problem. Good luck!

Hey, thanks for your reply! Yeah, a screen failure is really not what you want. And automatic gearboxes... they often cause trouble too. Can you remember how much you paid to get the transmission fixed and if there were any other issues after that? I'm just trying to figure out the ball park for potential repairs for my X6. Thanks again for your help!

Hi, you're right, a screen failure is really annoying. With my gearbox, everything was fine again after I had it done in the workshop, so don't worry about that. As for your navigation system screen failure, I can tell you something positive. I recently had a similar problem and since I've been to the mechanic, it's been fixed. However, it cost me €725, so it was a bit expensive. But now everything is running smoothly again. I hope this helps you to better estimate the costs. Good luck!

Hey, thanks for the info! That's a bit more expensive than I expected, but it's good to know that you can fix the problem. I'm glad to hear you haven't had any other issues with your transmission - that gives me hope. Thanks again, you've helped me a lot to better estimate the potential cost. I will now contact my mechanic and see what he says. Thanks again and have a great day!

Hello, the first thing I would is check the fuse and connections. Then, I would try and reboot the iDrive system by holding the volume button for 30 seconds. If that fails, consider a software update or diagnostic scan. If all else fails, I would seek help from a specialist. Replacement of the screen or head unit might be the best option in this case.

Hello, I used the Carly app to read out the fault memory of my BMW 740i (built in 2007). A mileage of 463,254 km is stored in the environmental conditions of an alarm system error. However, I have owned my car since 2013 and am therefore sure that the mileage can never be that high. Is this an error? And how did this come about? I would appreciate an answer.
