Thanks Paul,
Good to know there are other options available outside the dealer network.

How much would a dealer typically charge to update the MMI software? Ours is a 2010 model, would I gain much from doing so?

Cheers

As i said in my previous post, I was charged an hours labour at my local main dealer. I haven't noticed any benefit other than it solved the dual connectivity issue with the phone and in car sim card.

Could be a similar issue but I didnt have that error message. My "issue" was that the phone connected to the car via bluetooth would disconnect once an active sim was inserted in the dash slot next to the SD card slots. The MMI update enabled both the data sim in the dash slot and a phone via bluetooth to be active at the same time. You then can choose in the menu which sim/phone is to be used as the car phone/handsfree.
