Feedback on iDrive video?

BookemDano · 05-23-2015, 11:10 PM

Hi. I'm considering a 2016 X3 loaded. One difficulty is getting detailed information about the X3's packages and features. For example, finding good information about the iDrive system seems very difficult. However...

I found this video on YouTube:

It is well done and incredibly detailed. But... It was done on an X5.

Is this video accurate for an X3? Any features that don't work in an X3? Work differently?

Thanks,

Dan.

I think, although I don't know the exact specs, that it is pretty much the same

The pro media in the X3 is very very good

I have driven the latest F30 and also the i3 which both had the same system so whilst not having driven the X5 I don't see it as much different

They are pretty much all the same the world over except for some local differences. I had the F31 and now a 63 plate X3 xDrive 30d M Sport.
