I've just found out that .......
I'm always finding new things in the car, like the hidden stuff in the I Drive and the fact that the brake lights stay on when the auto hold function is used. I've just found out that not only does the fog lamp come on when turning, it will also operate when the indicators are used (full click).

I just revisited the owners manual and found that there is a defog feature on the cabin recirc system. If not selected for "A" or full recirc a sensor detects moisture and it will keep windows defogged.

It is interesting the technology built into the car that we'll never even know about... unless ya read all 250 pages of the manual.

You need to read it again and again to get any idea of the details of what is available. I did read the manual before I got the car but must have missed some of the detailed information. I think the manual being generic doesn't help (well that's my excuse anyway!!).

When I bought my 2011 BMWUSA a bunch of videos that covered most of the owners manual and settings. If they are still on the website I recommend them.

Personally I find it quite interesting finding out these extra features by playing around, it's like getting something for free that you previously may have thought you had to pay for!!
