Thread: 2009 M6 I-Drive Failure

Decided to take the m6 to work today

It's not my DD, so it was sitting for about 2 weeks.

Started up fine, but i-drive will not stay booted up.

it boots up to the home screen for about 30 secs and then goes blank.. and does it all over again.

I have tried resetting it by holding the CD, DVD and volume button but that doesnt work either.

Anyone have ideas?

Have an appointment with the stealer next week, but its an easy fix I'd prefer to do it on my own.

I had a feeling the HDD is fried... Thankfully the car is still under warranty.

Whats up buddy. I had to take mine back to the dealer also. When does it go back?

^ Not much man..

Working like a dog up here .. all good tho..

Made the appointment...

Probably going to get rid of it in April.

Will start parting it out much sooner after the holidays...

^ the days of m6 bye bye

what are you going to be parting out?

isn't there a second battery in the car just for the i-drive? if i remember correctly i saw a battery in the trunk of my sister's e60...maybe? (or my memories just off)

^ I've heard that... I checked my trunk and there is only one HUGE battery and a ton of wiring (Its a conv.)

If I dedice to sell it.. I would be getting rid of the following

Eisenmann Race Exhaust with Oval tips
AA Pulley
H&R spings
ACS Carbon Rear splitter
ACR Carbon Front splitter
21 HRE custom wheens fitted by Wheels B himself.
K&N Panel Filters

Similar thing happened in my e92 M3. I rarely drive it and the battery had many bad cells and wouldn't hold a charge. Took it in to the stealership and after a new $585 battery, it is fully operational. Now, I have to put a trickle charger on the car so it doesn't happen again. #FAIL

^ Car starts, runs and drives fine.

I have a trickle charger which I never use


fail x2 if thats what it is
