The start-up phase of the HU has been shortened (faster start of the operating system)
The number of disconnections from Apple CarPlay have been reduced
Vehicle access and the drive-ready state have been improved
The AC charging abort error has been fixed
Remote Control Parking without function

CAUSE
Unfavorable software in the vehicle.

CORRECTION
Program the complete vehicle via Remote Software Update (RSU) or ISTA.

PROCEDURE
Determine what is the vehicle’s current I-level by either using AIR, or AWP (Aftersales Workplace) applications. Based on the
vehicle’s current I-level, if necessary, program the vehicle to I-level U006-24-03-540 or higher via RSU or ISTA.

Remote Software Update (RSU) is the preferred method of software installation for this Service Action. The
vehicle will need to be updated to RSU software version 03.2024/40 or higher.
Note: RSU software levels are titled differently than I-levels, even though they are the same software. For
example: RSU software 03/2024.40 is equivalent to I-Level …24-03-540.

It must be checked whether the customer has already downloaded the required RSU software into the vehicle but has NOT
YET installed it. In this case, programming must be carried out via RSU as described under Step 1. If the RSU software
update is not available in the vehicle OR is lower than version 03.2024/40, then proceed with Step 2.
For more information, a detailed description of the procedure can be found in COMPASS in the dealer portal (COMPASS
article 80383).
1. Program via Remote Software Update

The processing of the technical campaign must be carried out via RSU as long as the requirements
listed in Step A are met.
A. Check the available RSU version in the System Settings vehicle app

i. Open the System Settings vehicle app and select Remote Software Upgrade.
ii. The version of the software that is currently installed in the vehicle is shown in the
upper area. The version of the software that will be installed in the vehicle via Remote
Software Upgrade is also displayed.
iii. If the RSU software version to be installed is 03/2024.40 or higher, proceed with the
RSU installation (Step B). If the RSU version is lower than 03/2024.40 or no RSU is
available for installation in the vehicle, then skip to Step 2.

B. Install Available RSU in the vehicle

i. If the RSU software version to be installed is 03/2024.40 or higher, start the RSU
installation in the vehicle and follow the prompted instructions in the Central
Information Display. If the software version to be installed is lower than 03/2024.40,
skip to Step 2.
ii. After approx. 30 minutes, you must check in the vehicle whether the RSU installation
has been carried out successfully and that software version 03/2024.40 or higher
has been installed.
iii. If the programming has been carried out successfully, the vehicle can be returned to
customer.

2. Programming via ISTA
If RSU software is not currently downloaded in the vehicle OR the RSU software currently downloaded is lower than
03/2024.40, then the vehicle software will need to be updated to U006-24-03-540 or higher via ISTA.
Determine what is the vehicle’s current I-level by either using AIR, or AWP (Aftersales Workplace) applications.

Based on the vehicle’s current I-level, if necessary, program the vehicle to I-level U006-24-03-540 or higher
using ISTA 4.46.4x (released April 4, 2024) or higher.
Connect the battery charger to the vehicle
Connect the programming system to the vehicle (ISTA 4)
Determine measures plan
Accept and fully work through the measures plan with the control units to be programmed/encoded
and enabled
Follow the rework list
Depending on the rework list, carry out a vehicle test and delete the fault memory if needed
After the programming has been fully completed, check functionality of the system.
Note: ISTA will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the
latest software.
Always connect a MINI-approved battery charger/power supply (SIM 04 08 09).
For information on programming and coding with ISTA, refer to Dealer Universal Portal / TIS / Technical
Documentation / Diagnostics and Programming / Programming Documentation.
