NAV maps (Professional)
Hi All,
I'm looking for a copy of "Road map South Africa Professional" DVD. Any year version will do. My copy "mysteriously" disappeared when it went into for a service at BMW . Barely use the NAV, just hate the error message that keeps popping up....
Please don't refer me to old post unless you can confirm that it is still valid / files are still uploaded. I've combed through the post and PM'ed various of the posters with no success.
Any help will be appreciated.

I am in the market to get a tuning add on.
The question is which one:
-COBB Accessport V3 (like the handheld, but seems very pricey)
-JB4 (Price looks very attrractive, just seems alot of PT)
-RacePRO Ultimate (Seems very overprice for what you get)
-ChipBOX (Well price)
If I repeat the topic, please excuse me. Dont see any search facility within the website.

Launch Control - HOW!!???
So I traded my 320d for a F30 330d (28 Nov 2013 build) and while browsing through the manual I saw "Launch Control", which got me all excited as I have the Sport Auto gearbox with paddles and all.
I've tried it twice, following the procedure in the manual, without success. I just end up in a ball of smoke, fishtailing all over the place. (which is fun also)
I did the following: (after driving 10+ km to make sure everything is at operating temperature)
1. Brought the car to a complete stop
2. Switch to Sport+
3. Transmission to S
4. Hard down on the brakes
5. Hard down on the accelerator, past max, into kick-down.
No flag, no nothing. Just a lot of power trying to get loose and ruin my tyres.
So what am I doing wrong here?
