When the NBT head unit, which controls your BMW’s iDrive infotainment system, is not working, it’s incredibly frustrating. Owners of faulty units typically find their system without signal, constantly trying to restart or failing to power up at all unless the NBT has been properly repaired.
NBT stands for ‘The Next Big Thing’ and is BMW’s third generation of iDrive system - it’s typically fitted to vehicles made between 2012-16.
This instalment was intended to provide a significant upgrade in both graphics and processing power to BMW cockpits, but it also brought with it some reliability issues.
Failure of the NBT head unit is more common than you’d think, and it often results in the BMW iDrive system not working. These symptoms usually appear as a ‘No Signal’ message or a completely black screen when loading.
