Deposit paid on an M4 :)

Hi guys
Paid a deposit on an Aug 2015 yas marina blue m4 coupe yesterday. Can't wait to get it hopefully next weekend, will be my first proper m car and first petrol car for a good few years of diesels. Haven't seen the car yet but it has a good spec (I think), hud, hk, adaptive led, internet, online ent, surround view, high beam assist, rear camera.

I read about an update to istep/hud that 2016 cars had which changed the hud colours and I think ac settings, the dealers have agreed to do it but needed a little more info to be able to find the update details, don't suppose anyone here has had it done and can let me know what they need to do? If I let them know by Monday/Tuesday they said it would be done for free, along with a nav map update.

Hope someone can help with the above

Nice one, the latest i-step (well it was 3 weeks ago) is:

F020-17-07-504

I had mine flashed to it when they fitted the MP HAS, enjoy your new motor.

Thanks Wills, your a star, I've just forwarded them on that version

Cant wait to get it, hopefully Friday if my new V5 comes (removing cherished plate on my old car).

I see you're a YMB owner too, I was predominately looking for a convertible but that colour has the power to seduce! hence my impending coupe lol

Hopefully will get some time to sort some better images out tomorrow but here's the first pic. Really impressed with the car, I read reports saying the noise was crap but I think it sounds fantastic

Congrats mate - lovely looking car! I went for an MG F83 but have always looked at the YMB cars with a tinge of regret...! Enjoy - amazing motors.

Very nice, one thing I changed with my YMB M3 is I put the gloss black side gills/exhaust trims/grilles and badge on I really think YMB pops against black.

As for the noise it's fine once warmed up but I'm not a fan of it when cold.

Great car, enjoy!

Great car, enjoy!

I really fancy the gloss black parts too, did you get them off eBay or main dealer?

I've been looking at the grills on eBay and they are cheap but don't seam to have the m4 badge on?
The genuine ones look great but I need purchases to slip under the other half radar after spending so much on the car

Thanks wills, will drop them a message.
Loving the car, only disappointment being they didn't do the istep update and I bought it from a dealers miles away so looks like I'll have to pay my local dealer gr....

I keep looking at mods, I really like the sill extensions, fancy them in gloss black too along with gloss black spoiler and diffuser eventually

I bought a 64 plate M3 in April and asked the salesman to get the update done but they never did it. Asked again when it went back for some warranty work and they were supposed to ring me but never did. That was back in the summer. I've never bothered to chase it up as its not a high priority in my life! I'm enjoying the car how it is anyway and very pleased with it. I've read a few things were some people say the car doesn't feel as lively after the update. Everyone says it improves the handling though.

Enjoy your new M4

Do you mind letting me know where you got your update done?

I'd had it agreed but they didn't do it and now they have said they have done all they can, that the update I requested is for 2016MY cars and therefore they couldn't do it based upon my chassis number.
It sounds like a copout to be honest and I'm resigned to the fact I'll probably have to pay for it somewhere but when I asked ay my local Sytner Nottingham dealer they hadn't heard of it either

Cheers
Che

The request they should understand is "can you flash my car to the latest
i-step level."

That may well be different depending on your model year.

You can find out what version you're running by downloading your profile onto a USB using the idrive settings/export profile.
