idrive coding
I had some coding done to the idrive a few weeks ago....including this one to show tire pressure and temperature. I don't know why these and other options are not enabled by the factory when you purchase the car...perhaps its a potential liability concern?

I turned that on for mine also, love that feature, but I think in general they dumb it down for the average consumer to just green good red bad!
I read a while ago that something like 60% of 1 series owners think they have a front wheel drive car, if that is true, they will have no idea what the temp and pressure means!

It would be great if BMW could link this info to the iPhone via a new BMW App so you could visualize it when adding air to the tires!

Like rob said, green=good/red=bad is better for "most" people, for the rest of us, we know how to code it to get what we want |
