Which market does the Middle East fall under? The 4 listed options are very limited. Also, entering the 7 digit VIN # returns an “ Invalid VIN” error!

**Developer response:** 피드백을 주셔서 감사합니다.
이미 모터사이클용 앱(BMW Motorrad)이 존재합니다. 그러나 두 카탈로그(자동차와 모터사이클)를 동일한 앱 내에서 통합하는 작업은 현재 진행 중입니다.

### 2/5 — Almost there.

*2025-07-14*

This app has worked pretty well for a few weeks, but in the past two months or so my app has begun crashing whenever trying to find a diagram based on part#. Continues to work completely fine on android (which is free btw) but this functionality is broken on my iPhone. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the app, cleared cache, and even completely wiped my phone & reinstalled everything, when that didn’t work my last bet was a different iOS, and still no solution.

**Developer response:** Hello, im sorry to hear that. Please, can you detail how to reproduce the issue? Send email to contact@bimmerrefs.com.
I will find solution for the issue.
Apologies.
