MODEL

G00600618

SITUATION

When the vehicle is operated in Sport Mode, the engine speed is no longer displayed in the BMW Head-Up Display (HUD). This can be seen in a new vehicle or after programming to I level S18A-20-07-5XX/S15A-20-07-5xx or newer.

CAUSE

Software in the BMW Head-Up Display (HUD).

CORRECTION

Program the vehicle.

PROCEDURE

  1. Determine the vehicle?s current I-level by either using AIR or the ISPA NEXT application. If needed, use the latest ISTA to work through test modules.
  2. Is the current vehicle integration level:
    Model Integration level
    F90 F97 F98 G01 G02 G12 G30 G32 Lower than S15A-21-07-5XX
    F44 F91 F92 F93 F95 F96 G05 G06 G07 G14 G15 G16 G20 G22 G23 G29 G80 G82 G830 Lower than S18A-21-07-5XX

    YES:  Proceed to Step 3

    NO:  Further diagnosis with ISTA is needed

  3. Program the vehicle using ISTA 4.30.2x or higher (released mid July, 2021)
Model Target integration level
F90 F97 F98 G01 G02 G12 G30 G32 S15A-21-07-5XX or higher
F44 F91 F92 F93 F95 F96 G05 G06 G07 G14 G15 G16 G20 G22 G23 G29 G80 G82 G83 S18A-21-07-5XX or higher

Note that ISTA will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the latest software.

Always connect a BMW-approved battery charger/power supply ( SI B04 23 10  ). 

For information on programming and coding with ISTA, refer to DealerSpeed/TIS/Technical

Documentation/Diagnostics and Programming/Programming Documentation.
