B&W audio issues
Checking to see if anyone else has had this issue.
The first time I noticed an audio issue with my M850 was through remote start. I noticed while driving that there was absolutely no bass coming from the system. I parked, turned off the car and started it back up, and that didn't fix the issue. I drove home, waited about a half hour, and tried again. No issues, audio worked just fine. It's now done it multiple times, and not just when using remote start. I've now noticed a few instances where the volume level won't adjust either, along with no bass. I do use my phone for music, but I connect via Bluetooth, not CarPlay. |

PaulyMats I had issues with my B&W with lack of bass and just general overall performance. This was linked to a high pitched noise coming (randomly) from the piped engine noise technology system. Both issues were resolved with a dealer software update.

I had the same problem and similar solution. Instead of updating my software, I used BimmerCode to code it off and increase the Bass sounds.

For musical genres in which the LFE component is prevalent, e.g., Hip Hop that is not a game in which B&W plays in. Hence, there may be many whom are disappointed with the B&W audio in the 8-series but for my core Rock, Blues, Alternative and Jazz listening habits it is just flat out amazing. |
