Software update help

There is a software update ready for my 2014 X1. I logged onto bmw.com/update as instructed . There is a box asking for the last 7 digits of my vehicle to validate the download to a flashdrive. My vehicle VIN # last 7 digits contains 2 letters and it will not accept it. Does anyone have any suggestions ? Thanks

Just tried it and it downloaded just fine. The last 7 of my VIN begins with vr87xxx. If you want to give it a try I can email it to you.

I did the 1006 update a week ago but there is still no Messages option in the Office menu. And what's worse, my 135 used to have the Messages option but it disappeared after a dealer visit. I updated the software in the 135 last week as well and no Messages option there either. WTF?

Thank you for your kindness and support. After several attempts and calling BMW for support, it seems that it did not work using Firefox . I used IE and had no issue. I do not not however notice anything different or enhanced as i am using a MOTO MaxxHD 4g and it is on android.
