Updated 4 October 2026. This guide summarizes the current M-TRI UPGRADE product listings. It is not a universal BMW compatibility chart. Confirm vehicle fitment and included work for your VIN before ordering.
Quick answer: The current NBT Evo CarPlay listing says versions H–M show a three-quarter-screen layout. It lists N, O, P, Q, R, S, U, V, W, X and Y for full-screen; version T is not listed. The same listing assigns USB coding to H–O and ENET coding to P–Y. Send your VIN and software version to confirm the correct option.
Which NBT Evo versions does the current offer list for full-screen CarPlay?
The current BMW NBT Evo CarPlay activation listing says versions H–M display CarPlay in a three-quarter-screen layout. It lists software versions N, O, P, Q, R, S, U, V, W, X and Y as supporting full-screen. Version T is not included in that list. Ask M-TRI to check the VIN and installed software before selecting an option.
These are the compatibility notes on one M-TRI offer page. They do not establish support for every BMW with the same chassis, model year or software label.
Which coding method is listed for each NBT Evo version?
| Product option | Software range shown in selector | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| USB coding | NBT Evo H–O | VIN and installed software version |
| ENET coding | NBT Evo P–Y | VIN, installed software version and connection requirements |
The selector range describes the options in the current product listing. Do not choose by model year alone. Version T is in the P–Y method range but is not listed in the full-screen compatibility set; ask M-TRI to confirm the outcome for that unit.
Does this table cover every F-chassis and G-chassis BMW?
No. F-chassis and G-chassis labels cover many configurations and do not identify the installed head unit or software by themselves. The NBT Evo offer asks for a compatible NBT Evo head unit, Professional Navigation (SA609), and an 8.8-inch or 10.25-inch display. M-TRI requests the 17-digit VIN to confirm fitment and method.
Send the VIN, model and production date, a photo of the iDrive software-version screen, and a short description of the current CarPlay layout. If you are unsure whether the system is NBT or NBT Evo, ask before ordering.
Is CarPlay activation the same as full-screen activation?
The NBT Evo product listing includes Apple CarPlay activation, Video in Motion (VIM), and Android screen mirroring. It says full-screen behavior depends on software version. A separate BMW CarPlay Full Screen Activation listing exists, but its page does not publish a verified vehicle-fitment matrix or clearly define fulfillment method. Get written confirmation for your vehicle before choosing that offer.
Does the NBT Evo offer include Android Auto?
The NBT Evo listing describes Android screen mirroring; it does not document Android Auto activation. M-TRI has separate product listings for iDrive 7 MGU CarPlay and Android Auto and iDrive 8 / 8.5 CarPlay and Android Auto activation. Those pages require vehicle-specific confirmation; the product names or selector labels alone do not prove fitment or delivery details.
Do not assume future-update or reversibility guarantees
The current CarPlay listings do not establish one guarantee covering every vehicle for future BMW software updates, head-unit replacement or reversibility. Ask M-TRI to confirm the exact terms for the selected offer in writing before ordering.
