Anti Key Jamming Update

[Keeno563]

Anyone know about the key jamming scam? I read about it in the paper and apparently BMW are offering software updates to counteract this. If anyone is aware of this is it free to get the update?

I took my 2007 E92 to BMW Sytner Birmingham about 6 weeks back. They told me at the time that they wont be getting the software in for approx 8 weeks (end of October). I left my details and was informed they will call when ready. I'm not so sure this will happen so will be popping back in again next week.

They did inform me the upgrade would be free which was too be expected.

This came out in the papers only a few days after buying my car and what makes it worse, the thefts were taking place about 5 miles from where I live in Sutton Coldfield!!!

Brilliant! yea I only just put the deposit down haven't even picked it up yet and I found this out. You would think it would be free as its in their interest to keep you as a customer.

I think if your car doesn't lock dont leave it and move somewhere else!
