je compter acheter une e60 de 2007 qui bien sûr ne possède pas l’idrive 2 et je compte l’installer, cela a été difficile de changer ou pas? merci pour votre réponse

est-ce que le changement de la molette change automatiquement le gps aussi? ou il faut acheter à part l’écran avec la programmation pour idrive 2 ? merci de votre réponse

⁠​⁠@@mohatv6811 il faut acheter le poste CIC ,écran ,molette. Et bien sûr programmation (codage)

@@Winter1256 aurez-vous un site fiable pour acheter tout cela ?

Mine is a 2008 LCI E60 and I upgraded it to CIC. The controller is plug and play on the LCI cars, you just need to rearrange the pins like I show you. You are better off selling your car and finding a 2010 E60 with CIC. That way you will have the other LCI upgrades.

No, I don't recommend that, if you skip to 6:00 I explain why. The reason is because it will not look OEM and you have to use the trim with the wider border from the 6 series in order to cover up your cut. Also, the material of the trim feels like metal and will be much harder to cut than the centre console material so the Dremel I used will not work on it. Just be patient and keep checking on eBay. I was checking for 1 year until i finally found it.

@@bmwdiy One more question though. For my E90 I had purchased a FSC code for updating the navi that was based on the VIN of the car. Can I purchase a FSC code after this retrofit as the VIN will not "show" having a CIC module?

Hi I have been watching your video and I wanted to know were I can get the harness for clip for the wire. I don't feel like I have to get the entire unit i have access for all the parts. Also the harness clip for the idrive display. This is a project I want to attempt myself. So if you can let me know were to get them and how to replace pin properly.

Skip to 9:04 and 30:05, you take wires 1,2,4 & 5 from the knob connector and put them in the 4 slots on the menu button connector and then put the menu button connector in the new controller, use a metal pick tool to release the wires from the connectors like I show you at 30:05, put electrical tape around all the other wires as they are not needed anymore

Only the one I show you at 6:08 but I would advise against it since the trim piece is made of really hard metal and it might be too hard to create a fine enough cut with the Dremel so the bracket covers it, good luck though!

Same steps for just a controller replacement. It will be much easier since you won't have to cut the hole or rearrange the wires. The CIC is a hardware retrofit so it cannot be downloaded but I highly recommend it on your car since you already have the controller -> kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b5eKddyi2LmwqH0.html

No coding needed

The menu button 11:40

No, the controller upgrade is optional, gives you the shortcuts, and makes your E60 look nicer and newer but that’s it. For the newer IDrive (CIC) you need the newer headunit, newer screen, some cables and glovebox USB port, and some coding. You can get the parts on your own from ebay and ecstuning and code it yourself with a Windows laptop with the right software (its free) and the K+DCAN cable that goes in the OBD2 port. I’m coming out with a video on how to do this on a 2008 3 series so stay tuned since the process is very similar and will save you some money.

Sell your car and buy a 2009 or 2010 E60 with navigation which comes fitted with the CIC Idrive and controller from factory. No point in investing any more money in a pre-facelift E60.

Thanks for ur feedback, however its not an option now

One technician told me that the CCC gateway needs flush and update to work with the CIC controler, what do you think about this

Look up at oem parts

Da, uita-te de la 30:00 incolo, va arat ca totu merge exact ca la un E60 cu maneta CIC din fabrica

It must be a 2008 model

Yes

It depends what year your car is, you would need an OBD2 cable, a windows laptop and NCS expert 2007 and newer do not require coding

My car is pre fl 2004 e60 i have ncsexpert and inpa cable tried to go to mask module to find the coding for it, i did not find the coding function for that my controller is from e70 cables are connected good. Any ideas on how to code it maybe i need to play with VO/FA ?

The centre console, I used the same T20 screws from the old controller, the holes for the screws are in the same spots underneath the centre console to match the new controller bracket. Look at 27:50

@@bmwdiy Thank you!

yup it sure is a pain

If you have a pre-LCI car then I wouldn’t bother, but if the car is a 2008 model then the iDrive knob is the only thing keeping it from looking like a 2010 model. I used to think like you but the new controller looks so much better, especially at night, and the shortcuts really come in handy

@@bmwdiy I just did the retrofit on my 2006 M5 and the pre-LCI controller wasn’t working correctly. I had to install the LCI controller and it worked perfectly.

This is the best music, you are lucky to be alive so you can hear it

I’m going to like both of your comments
