Well - according to this site https://www.bmw.co.uk/help/technology - you can buy a USB stick for £69 quid with the updated maps on. Does that sound right for our cars?

How do I go about Updating the Maps for My 2011 35is? When I try to Add It to BMW Connected Drive App It says It's too old to add via BMW Connected Services :(

Are you sure that’s the maps and not the firmware? My son has just updated his disc map on a 04 E85 to 2018, So im pretty convinced you can update yours,

You can't update the maps using ConnectedDrive, you need to have the maps on a USB stick, then insert it into the glovebox USB port.

The maps are 23GB in size. You can buy the update USB from a dealership, I think they lowered the price quite significantly.

There are other methods of getting the USB maps update but they can't be discussed on this forum as they are not official. Google can assist there though.
