"Vehicle is not equipped with the necessary technology to have Parking Assistant Professional available. There is no upgrade or retrofit available."

I'm a bit confused as I'm seeing people who purchased it as an over-the-air upgrade on their US spec i5. Is there another hardware component that might be missing from my car that would prevent me from upgrading?
Does not appear to be correct as i5 owners have been able to upgrade from plus to professional, although there have been issues for some getting it to actually work. There was a theory it was taken off the Connected Drive store to address these issues. I would press them on exactly what "technology" is missing.
