USB Audio Interface

MODEL

[NEW] All vehicles with

^ Option 6FL (USB Audio Interface)

Or

2010 BMW 335i Coupe (E92) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) Page 43

^ Option 6NL (Connection Bluetooth + USB devices incl.)

INFORMATION

The USB Audio interface is only available as a factory-installed option and cannot be retrofitted.

The USB Audio Interface allows the connection of compatible MP3 players, such as an Apple iPod (Generation4 or higher), to the vehicle and

operates it through the vehicles audio controls.

In addition to MP3 players, audio files on USB sticks can also be played through the USB audio interface.

Only audio files can be played. Accessing other files such as videos is not possible.

The USB audio interface currently supports the following compressed formats:

^ MP3 (mp3)

^ AAC (aac, m4a, m4b)

^ WAV/PCM (wav)

^ WMA (wma, asf)

^ Playlists in M3U format

NOTE:

WAV files are not supported in playlists.

It is possible to access all stored audio data directly through a playlist, as well as searching for genre, artist, album or title. However, the sorting and

displaying of audio files in the vehicle can only be carried out correctly if all the data stored on the MP3 player (e.g., ID3 tags) contains only Roman

characters. Playlists must contain absolute path indications if the audio file is not located in the same directory as the playlist itself.

Storage of the device and first installation

Observe all operating and storage instructions for the device if the iPod, MP3 player or USB stick is stored in the vehicle. It is recommended not to

store iPods, MP3 players or USB sticks in the vehicle for any length of time, since extreme environmental conditions (temperature, humidity) may

cause damage to the device.

Upon initial connection of an iPod, MP3 player or USB stick containing large amounts of data, audio files can be only accessed through the

directory structure of the device. The search by genre, artist, album or title only becomes available after the corresponding file information has been

transferred to the vehicle. The performance of an iPod, MP3 player or USB stick in the vehicle (such as duration of synchronization or operation

speed) depends on the storage capacity and technology of the device, as well as the number and the format of stored audio files. For example, the

synchronization of a USB stick with 8 GB of flash storage can take up to 10 minutes; longer synchronization times could be due to device specific

characteristics. During this time, music titles can be selected through indexes and file names.

Should the interaction of an iPod, MP3 player or USB stick with the USB Audio Interface not function correctly, it may also be due to defective or

unsupported encoding of audio files (e.g., bit rates bigger than 256 kbit/s).

For questions, please contact your local customer service directly or via email at: customer.service@bmw.com.

Compatible devices

Due to the variety of MP3 players and USB sticks and their technical differences, faultless operation with the USB audio interface cannot be

guaranteed for all devices.

For a list of compatible and/or recommended USB devices, please refer to the BMW USA website:

www.bmw.com/com/en/owners/navigation/audio/usb_audio.html.

For more detailed information on how to operate the connected audio device (iPod, MP3 or USB device) through the vehicle audio system, refer to

the Owners Manual.

The message "Incompatible Device" indicates the usage of an incompatible type of device.

IMPORTANT:

The playing of audio files from mobile phones equipped with a USB interface through the USB audio interface is not recommended. The receiving

or placing of phone calls cannot be guaranteed, because some mobile phone models exclude Bluetooth functionality in conjunction with a USB

connection.

2010 BMW 335i Coupe (E92) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) Page 44

NOTE:

Charging the device through the cigar lighter should be avoided because of possible audio distortions caused by the cigar lighter.

^ Information on how to detect the software version of an iPod is available online: docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60984

NOTE:

When the iPod is connected to iTunes through a PC, iTunes is capable of automatically updating the iPod software. This could adversely affect the

interaction of the iPod with the USB audio interface.

[NEW] Vehicles without option 6NL (Connection Bluetooth + USB devices incl.):

Apple iPod devices must be connected to the vehicle through the adapter cable provided (Y cable from 30-pin-connector to USB and AUX-In).

It enables quick access to the iPods audio files and also charges the iPod while connected to the vehicle via the USB connector. In addition,

copy-protected music files can also be played.

IMPORTANT:

If the provided adapter cable for the Apple iPod is not used, iPod devices can only be used as a "storage drive" with the FAT format; the operation

of iPod devices under MacOS is also not possible.

Refer to the Aftersales Business Development & Marketing BMW Dealer Bulletin 65 04 07. See Attachment A.

[NEW] Vehicles with option 6NL (Connection Bluetooth + USB devices incl.):

[NEW] The Apple USB cable must be used (white USB cable which comes with the Apple device).

iPod devices can be disconnected from the vehicle at any time. Only the audio content of videos can be played.

MP3 devices

MP3 players can be connected to the vehicle through an aftermarket USB cable.

These devices will then also be charged through the USB connection.

IMPORTANT:

Copy-protected music files are not supported for these devices.

Devices with "Media Transfer Protocol (MTB)" cannot be used with the USB audio interface.

2010 BMW 335i Coupe (E92) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) Page 45

This applies especially to devices with the "PlaysForSure" logo. To convert the device into "USB Mass Storage Class" mode, refer to the owners

manual of the MP3 player.

The MP3 player needs to be formatted with the FAT file system. Only the files of the first partition will be displayed.

NOTE:

During synchronization of an MP3 player with a PC, the software of the MP3 player could be automatically updated.

This could adversely affect the compatibility of the MP3 player with the USB audio interface.

USB devices

USB sticks can be connected directly to the USB Audio Interface.

NOTE:

On 1 Series, 3 Series and Z4 vehicles only, an adapter cable has to be used when connecting a USB stick to the USB Audio Interface to prevent

damage to the USB stick when closing the armrest. This adapter cable is no longer provided by the factory in these vehicles from May 2009 on. On a

customer request basis, it can be ordered through parts (P/N 84 10 9 143 446).

These devices will then also be charged through the USB connection.

IMPORTANT:

Copy-protected music files are not supported for these devices.

USB hard disks and USB hubs and/or card reader with several inputs cannot be used with the USB Audio Interface.

IMPORTANT:

The use of USB sticks with an integrated hard disk is not recommended, since tests have shown that their audio quality may not be acceptable.

USB sticks need to be formatted with the FAT format. Only the files of the first partition will be displayed.

Due to the variety of USB sticks on the market and their technical differences, faultless operation in the vehicle can only be ensured through testing

the product in the vehicle.

Troubleshooting/Concept Related Behaviors

TROUBLESHOOTING

Technical limitations of the USB audio interface

1. The connected USB device is not recognized and cannot be selected as an entertainment source. This is with the USB device connected at

vehicle start-up, or if the USB device is connected with the ignition on (KL15):

^ Not all USB devices are compatible with option 6FL or option 6NL. Please refer to the latest list of compatible and/or recommended USB

devices. www.bmw.com/com/en/owners/navigation/audio/usb_audio.html

^ For diagnosis of the USB audio interface connection, please refer to SI B65 07 08.

2. A track cannot be played and/or is skipping:

^ The file has an invalid format (not mp3, wma or aac), is corrupt, or protected by Digital Rights Management (DRM).

3. Playlists, genres, artists, albums and tracks on USB devices are not displayed:

^ Only Roman text characters are supported. Other character sets (Greek, Japanese, etc.) cannot be displayed.

4. Time period differs for playlists, genres, artists, albums and tracks on USB devices are displayed:

^ The time period for playlists, genres, artists, albums and tracks on USB devices to be displayed depends upon the number of audio files on

the final device. In the case of a device with 80GB storage and 15,000 audio files, for example, this could take several hours.

2010 BMW 335i Coupe (E92) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) Page 48

5. The iPod cant be fully operated through the vehicle audio system (affects only option 6FL):

^ For use of an Apple iPod, it is recommended to use the "Adapter cable for Apple iPod" (Y-cable). If the Apple iPod is connected using the

USB connector cable supplied with the iPod, the iPod is activated as a USB MSC device. This is only possible if the iPod has been

configured accordingly, using iTunes, and formatted using an FAT file system (Windows systems only, not Mac). In addition, no access to

the playlists is possible in this operating mode and the DRM-protected audio files cannot be played.

6. Distortions through the audio system when the device is connected to the cigar lighter for charging:

^ There are malfunctions and audio interference, if a device is connected to both the USB connector and the 12V socket. Depending on the

model, the USB devices may be supplied with power by the USB connector itself. This means that no additional power connection is

required, nor is one recommended.

7. USB hard drive is not working correctly:

^ Trouble-free operation of USB hard drives cannot be guaranteed. The power supply of the USB is not sufficient for most hard drives.

Audio interference may also occur. The use of hard drives is neither supported nor recommended.

8. iPod 3rd Generation is not working:

^ iPods of the 3rd generation are not supported.

9. With the CCC head unit, the browsing history is not stored. For example, if the list of artists is browsed and an artist is selected, the cursor will

appear at the beginning when returning to the artists list.

^ Normal operation.

10. There are malfunctions if a mobile phone is connected to the USB Audio Interface and paired with the Bluetooth hands-free system:

^ Some mobile phones deactivate Bluetooth if connected to USB.

Concept related behaviors

1. Intermittent inability to select and/or activate categories such as playlists, genres, artists, albums, and tracks after starting the vehicle with the

USB device already connected. This occurs if very few audio files (less than 70) are stored on the USB device:

^ Disconnect and/or reconnect the USB device, or store more audio files.

2. Message "Reading data" is permanently displayed:

^ Make a new selection; disconnect and/or reconnect the device; change the entertainment source and change back again; allow the vehicle

to enter sleep mode.

3. Message "No supported audio files found" is displayed when a playlist is selected:

^ If playlists and audio files are stored in different folders, absolute paths must be used, e.g., /dir1/dir2/track.mp3.

4. Interference is heard instead of an audio track after a vehicle start with a USB stick connected:

^ Select a new track manually, or skip forward or back.

^ For use of an Apple iPod, it is recommended to use the "Adapter cable for Apple iPod" (Y-cable). If the Apple iPod is connected using the

USB connector cable supplied with the iPod, the iPod is activated as a USB MSC device. This is only possible if the iPod has been

configured accordingly, using iTunes, and formatted using an FAT file system (Windows systems only, not Mac). In addition, no access to

the playlists is possible in this operating mode and the DRM-protected audio files cannot be played.

6. Distortions through the audio system when the device is connected to the cigar lighter for charging:

^ There are malfunctions and audio interference, if a device is connected to both the USB connector and the 12V socket. Depending on the

model, the USB devices may be supplied with power by the USB connector itself. This means that no additional power connection is

required, nor is one recommended.

7. USB hard drive is not working correctly:

^ Trouble-free operation of USB hard drives cannot be guaranteed. The power supply of the USB is not sufficient for most hard drives.

Audio interference may also occur. The use of hard drives is neither supported nor recommended.

8. iPod 3rd Generation is not working:

^ iPods of the 3rd generation are not supported.

9. With the CCC head unit, the browsing history is not stored. For example, if the list of artists is browsed and an artist is selected, the cursor will

appear at the beginning when returning to the artists list.

^ Normal operation.

10. There are malfunctions if a mobile phone is connected to the USB Audio Interface and paired with the Bluetooth hands-free system:

^ Some mobile phones deactivate Bluetooth if connected to USB.

Concept related behaviors

1. Intermittent inability to select and/or activate categories such as playlists, genres, artists, albums, and tracks after starting the vehicle with the

USB device already connected. This occurs if very few audio files (less than 70) are stored on the USB device:

^ Disconnect and/or reconnect the USB device, or store more audio files.

2. Message "Reading data" is permanently displayed:

^ Make a new selection; disconnect and/or reconnect the device; change the entertainment source and change back again; allow the vehicle

to enter sleep mode.

3. Message "No supported audio files found" is displayed when a playlist is selected:

^ If playlists and audio files are stored in different folders, absolute paths must be used, e.g., /dir1/dir2/track.mp3.

4. Interference is heard instead of an audio track after a vehicle start with a USB stick connected:

^ Select a new track manually, or skip forward or back.

Recall 11E-A03 - Check/Repl. Emission Monitoring Components

SI B18 02 12

Exhaust Systems

June 2012

Technical Service

This Service Information bulletin supersedes SI 18 02 12 dated May 2012.

PERFORM THE PROCEDURE OUTLINED IN THIS SERVICE INFORMATION ON ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES BEFORE CUSTOMER

DELIVERY OR THE NEXT TIME THEY ARE IN THE SHOP FOR MAINTENANCE OR REPAIRS.

BMW centers must ensure recalls are completed after having been notified by BMW of North America, LLC (BMWNA) that a safety-related defect

or noncompliance exists in any motor vehicle or item of replacement equipment in the center's possession at the time of notification. In BMW NA's

case, this notification would typically be made by the issuance of a recall notification in the form of a Service Information bulletin (SIB) or

transmission of a Dealer Communication System (DCS) recall message.

Under the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966, as amended, if a recall campaign is announced by BMW NA, centers must ensure

that all recalls on new vehicles and new items of replacement equipment are completed BEFORE delivery to the consumer. This means that centers

may not legally deliver new motor vehicles or new items of replacement equipment to consumers with an open recall.

The Safety Act also prohibits centers from selling or leasing the motor vehicle or item of replacement equipment, unless and until the open recall has

been completed BEFORE delivery. This also pertains to vehicles in the Certified Pre-Owned program, and to items of replacement equipment.

2010 BMW 335d Sedan (E90) L6-3.0L DSL Turbo (M57Y) Page 41

Finally, BMW centers should not sell or use parts that have been recalled by BMW NA. Please follow the specific instructions provided by BMW

NA on the return or disposition of the parts.

SUBJECT

Voluntary Emissions Recall Campaign 11E-A03: Check and/or Replace Emissions Monitoring Components

MODEL

E70 and E90 with the M57Y engine produced from January 2008 to September 2009

SITUATION

1. The Selective Catalyst Reduction (SCR) catalyst has been improved to increase emissions stability over the service life of the vehicle.

2. The SCR mixer has also been improved to optimize the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) mixture when introduced into the exhaust system.

3. Under certain driving conditions, the High-Pressure (HP) EGR valve may become restricted with excessive soot. This restriction impedes the

emissions performance of the HP EGR valve. This situation may lead to the Service Engine Soon lamp illuminating. An optimized EGR valve

has been developed to limit this soot buildup.

Note:

These improved parts may have already been replaced during a previous service visit. It will be necessary to inspect these components first

before replacement.

4. Reprogramming of the DDE to optimize these improved emissions monitoring components.

AFFECTED VEHICLES

This Emissions Recall Campaign involves X5d and 335d models that were produced from January 2008 to September 2009.

In order to determine whether a specific vehicle has had this Emissions Recall Campaign completed or is affected by this Emissions Recall

Campaign, first check if the "Emissions Recall Campaign Completed" label SD 92-435 is attached to the right (passenger) rear side of the hood in

the engine compartment, close to the windshield. If the label is found, the campaign has already been performed. If the "Emissions Recall Campaign

Completed" label is not present, it will be necessary to utilize the "Service Menu" of DCSnet (Dealer Communication System) or the Key Reader.

Based on the response of the system, either proceed with the corrective action or take no further action.

PARTS INFORMATION

LABEL INSTRUCTIONS

After the vehicle has been checked and corrected, obtain a label (SD 92-435) and with the indelible marker provided, legibly print the Recall name,

Recall number, and dealer code (5 digits) on the Recall Completion Label (see illustration). An initial quantity of 100 labels will be sent to all BMW

centers. Peel the label from its backing and affix it to the right (passenger) rear side of the hood in the engine compartment, close to the windshield.

2010 BMW 335d Sedan (E90) L6-3.0L DSL Turbo (M57Y) Page 43

For California centers only: it is required by the California code of regulations that an executed orange "Vehicle Emission Recall - Proof of

Correction" certificate (SD92-084, see illustration) be provided to each customer (for vehicles registered in the state of California), once the recall

on his or her vehicle has been completed.

Note: additional labels can be ordered online at BMW TIS.

WARRANTY INFORMATION

Correction

Inspecting the SCR catalyst:

Check the part number of the SCR catalyst (1). If the part number is not 18 30 8 509 753 (E70) or 18 30 8 509 750 (E90), the SCR catalyst will need

to be replaced. Follow Repair Instruction 18 00 020 "Remove and refit complete exhaust system" to replace the SCR catalyst.

Note:

If replacement is necessary, also perform the SCR mixer check/replacement at the same time.

2010 BMW 335d Sedan (E90) L6-3.0L DSL Turbo (M57Y) Page 44

Inspecting the mixer:

Remove the front pipe of the SCR catalyst to gain access to the mixer.

The original style mixer has a multiple fin arrangement (1). This mixer will need to be replaced with P/N 18 30 8 513 445 (E70) or P/N 18 30 8 512

438 (E90).

If the updated mixer has already been installed, it will have one set of fins (2). No replacement is necessary. Reinstall the SCR front pipe to the down

pipe of the DPF.

Inspecting the EGR valve:

Remove the charge air pipe at the throttle (ignition off). Using a flashlight, look through the throttle (1) and inspect the EGR valve.

2010 BMW 335d Sedan (E90) L6-3.0L DSL Turbo (M57Y) Page 45

The updated EGR valve (P/N 11 71 8 517 217 or P/N 11 71 8 512 526) has the valve and seat directly in the airstream of the throttle (1). If this

valve is installed, no further action is needed. Reinstall the charge air pipe.

The original EGR valve has a diffuser in the airstream flow from the throttle (2). The valve for EGR actuation is seated further into the EGR

airstream. Replace this valve with P/N 11 71 8 512 526 (Repair Instruction 11 71 501).

The DDE will also need to be programmed as part of the Recall. If the EGR valve is replaced, the DDE will need to be programmed after the new

EGR valve is installed. This new software package contains the necessary software to adapt to the new EGR valve strategy.

Program the vehicle using ISTA/P 2.46.3 or later.

Note that ISTA/P will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the latest software.

For information on programming and coding with ISTA/P, refer to CenterNet / Aftersales Portal / Service / Workshop Technology / Vehicle

Programming.
