Keep us posted once you upgrade to .50 if the sport engine sounds setting is gone. My car is ready to upgrade but I'm hesitant to do that until I confirm with someone "brave" :-) that the feature is still available as I don't want to lose that great sound on the engine start!

11/2023.50 downloaded on my iPhone and uploaded to the car without me noticing...
The iDrive is advising that the new software is ready to install. I have not hit install yet... Is there a way for me to cancel this install as I don't want to run it? And, don't want to see the software read to install message every time I enter the car! My worry at next oil change the dealer tech might hit install.

As long as I get my burbles and pops when in Sport+ mode, I don't care. With my incoming new exhaust, I still want my burbles and pops

Installed my update a few days ago. It went smoothly for a change.

My car just finished upgrading to 11/2023.50 and I can confirm the "sporty" feature still exists in the iDrive. The only thing I had to do is reselect the sporty option from the menu after the install was completed as per attached image.

Anyone know (or know how to find out) what specific changes are included for F92 (2023 M8 Competition Coupe)? The release notes are quite vague, and I can't find anything more specific from Google search. Thanks in advance!

I did the upgrade yesterday. Haven't noticed any changes yet. Had to redo bimmercode settings but my by anti-dazzle (US vehicle) still remained. The last time I had it coded by Bimmer Remote they said the anti-Dazzle mod would be permanent and so far it's survided 03/2023.5 and 11/2023.5

Not sure why your M8 got quieter... My M850 is still as loud as hell when I start the engine and in sport plus it's louder with the cracks/pops present.
I have a feeling BMW did something mechanically to the 2024 8 series and it has nothing to do with the software update. |

This release shouldn't be a big one as BMW went from 11/2023.30 from few months ago to 11/2023.50. The small change in the release number .30-.50 represent a minor big fixes... Usually that's the case with software BUT that being said, you never know with BMW these days!

What settings have you changed with Bimmercode on your M850? Same here, not much change other than noticing the auto start feature is off which I probably need to configure in the iDrive.

Good luck changing the auto start/stop setting. BMW has locked us out since the 3/2023.xx versions. Maybe one day Binmercode will figure out a work around.

March, July and November of each year BMW releases new "major" releases. Sometimes new features are released, sometimes only bug fixes. .xx is the build of the specific release. Generally these .xx releases contain smaller changes/fixes but sometimes those fixes can be important in some situations.

I made a video about this exact concern many of us have:

Then this is a sizable upgrade for you. Quite a few Driver Assist function updates in the July 2023 version that were further refined in November.
And I find a lot of improvements with both Car play and Android Auto in July and November. That's my view on this.
