BMW NBT EVO IDrive 4 to IDrive 6 + Apple CarPlay OEM
We offer a complete NBTEvo iDrive 4 to iDrive 6 upgrade, including activation of BMW Apple CarPlay in Fullscreen.
We are based in Australia and follow the AEST timezone. However we are flexible with our coding hours.
Our solution is designed to provide a stable fullscreen CarPlay experience without random reboots and has been used successfully across hundreds of upgrades.
How to check your firmware version
Go to:
Navigation → Options → Settings → Position & Version History → Version
Your system should display a version beginning with:
NBTEvo_XXXXX
Compatible versions include:
NBTEvo_A / NBTEvo_C / NBTEvo_D / NBTEvo_E / NBTEvo_F
All regions are supported.
What you need for the remote upgrade
- ENET cable – OBD2 to Ethernet
- At least 30GB of free storage on your computer
- Windows PC, or a compatible Mac running Windows
- Battery charger / battery support during programming
- A Wifi Antenna installed in the car - message us for help with that
You can use either an OEM BMW Wi-Fi antenna, such as part number 61119278133, or a suitable aftermarket FAKRA Wi-Fi antenna.
The Wi-Fi antenna is not included and must be purchased separately. Installation instructions can be provided.
How the remote session works
After booking, you will receive the required software and setup instructions.
Once everything is installed, one of our technicians will connect to your computer remotely using TeamViewer and complete the upgrade.
The full process generally takes approximately 1 hour from start to finish.
