Frequently Asked Questions

Installation And Support

All Bimmernavigation kits come with thorough installation instructions. Each set of instructions is prepared for a specific product and vehicle, ensuring they are accurate and easy to follow. We also provide video instructions for many of our products. Most of our products are designed to allow self-installation by anybody with moderate DIY skills. If you have purchased a Bimmernavigation kit and would like to install it yourself, or are considering a Bimmernavigation kit and would like to know more about the installation process, please contact our technical support team.

We work closely with professional technicians around the world to install our products in customer vehicles. All our partners are experienced working with Bimmernavigation products, and will be able to install your kit to the highest standard. We maintain a list of authorized Bimmernavigation installers and their contact details on the ‘Find Your Installer’ page of this website. Find your nearest Bimmernavigation installer. Please note that all installation and service fees are set by our partners, and Bimmernavigation cannot partially or fully cover or refund any costs.

Our technical support team is available by phone to help walk you through the installation process. Their contact details and working hours are on our contact page.

If a Bimmernavigation product is not fully operational, it is possible that it has been installed or configured incorrectly. Please note that many of our products include DIP switches, which are used to modify the configuration settings for different vehicles. Your installation instructions explain how they must be set for your vehicle. Setting the DIP switches incorrectly is likely to cause the kit to malfunction. Some of our products require coding after installation, before which they will not work, or may be missing features. In this case, your installation instructions will explain the coding process to you. If your Bimmernavigation product still doesn’t work as expected, please contact our technical support team to troubleshoot your issue.

If a previously operational Bimmernavigation product has stopped working, it is possible that a fault has developed with the kit. Alternatively, if you have recently made any modifications to your car — including installing other retrofit kits or modifying your iDrive software — it is possible that these changes have interfered with the proper operation of your Bimmernavigation kit. Please contact our technical support team with details about the issue you are facing, and any recent modifications to your vehicle.

Return And Refund

If you believe you have received a faulty product, please contact our support team. They will help you troubleshoot common problems, and may be able to help get your product working. If your product is still not working, our team will help you identify which component(s) in your upgrade kit are faulty, and will issue a return authorization to replace the affected component(s).

Some of our products, such as our coding and activation services, are prepared and performed for your unique vehicle. These services are non-refundable. If you would like to return a new and unused product for a refund within 14 days of receipt of the product, please contact our support team with your order number. Please note that you will be charged a restocking fee, and will be charged for any component(s) missing or damaged. To make the return process easier and smooth please confirm with our Support team if you will be using the original package or if you will use a different one, in the case of the second please provide the dimensions as well, this information is required for the creation of the prepaid label.

Many of our products offer an optional, 2- or 3-year extended warranty at an additional cost. For those that don’t, or if you have chosen not to add an extended warranty to your order, most of our kits are covered by a 12-month basic warranty (or 90-day warranty for refurbished products), covering manufacturing faults. All warranty periods are valid from the original date of purchase and can NOT be changed after the purchase. Please note that our warranties do not cover damage caused by the customer during or after installation – unless resulting from a faulty kit – or costs of reinstallation of a new replacement kit. If your product has developed a fault, please contact our support team with your order number.

No, it’s not. Since Bimmernavigation offers DIY installation upgrades, the responsibility for the installation is laid upon a customer – this includes all installation costs. If you decide to install your product with the help of our certified installers, check the terms of warranty with your chosen installer.

Features activated via coding may be stop working, or work differently, if subsequent changes are made to your BMW’s software. The most common reason is if your dealer needs to install new software in your vehicle. In this case, it is possible to reactivate the features made available via coding. USB-coded features can be reactivated using the same USB file that was provided with your order. Features coded by our technician can be reactivated for a small fee. Please contact us for more information. We are not able to offer refunds for coding features that have been deactivated by subsequent software changes.
