what new thing did you learn about the car today?
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com It's blast. I had M4C convertible 2017 and I can feel the difference in good way between them. Anyway I found today 3 new things about the car that I didn't know before: 1. when you swing you foot under the trunk it will open. But if you swing it again it will close by it self without toughing it. 2. If you touch the driver door handle it will lock the car. If you touch it again it will fold the side mirrors. 3. If you press the voice activation button and say to the car any channel in the radio it will change channel to it. Like I would only say CNN and it will answer back after changing the media to CNN channel and it say" you are now listening to CNN". Lets pile list of new things we learn about the car.

Try this one: exit the car with all the windows and sunroof open (oh, wait--the latter is impossible... why BMW!?!). Touch the embossed lock stripes on the door handle and hold there and the windows will roll themselves up. You can do the same from the key fob but I believe I had to code that back on to my M5--I'll do the same for the M8. |

Oooh, another one--rather than navigate the menus to program your M1 and M2 buttons, simply set the car up as you like using the buttons on the center console then hold either M1 or M2 until it bleeps and it's now programmed... et voila (works on a 2020 F90; your mileage may vary).

It also takes a bit of finagling but you can define your work address for the navigation to recognize and purely by voice "navigate me to work" will light up a route. The value add being the BMW navigation systems traffic routing (road closures, congestion, accidents, etc.) is nearly on par with Waze. So regardless that I know how to get to my office I use it to get me around the commute gridlock with a simple voice command. Side note being that I have the navigation system set to not provide voice prompting as with the digital cockpit, HUD, and my split screen iDrive home screen (media on the left and map on the right) it is useless. Bottom line is I do not want the navigation voice prompts intruding on the amazing B&W audio system during my commute to work. |
