Idle issues - BMW/Mini software update
Overheard that BMW/Mini recognizes that they are having idle/running issues with some of their motors and later this year there is possibly a big reprogramming available to address the problem(s). Apparently the issue is bigger on the BMW side then Mini.

Anyone else hear about this!???

Nothing I've heard about, or has been on the TSB radar.
If you're not having a significant idle, I wouldn't even sweat it.
