    Great video! Lane Departure fix was awesome! I also had no idea you can preset almost ANY feature in the car with the 8 buttons that I thought were ONLY for radio stations. The only downside is that I lose one of my favorite SiriusXM stations to sync up climate control. Can't have the best of both worlds. Thank you!

    Of one the most features to me is the east access steering wheel - I haven’t been able to turn that off and my 2021 groans each time I turn the car on and it extends the steering wheel. One nice to have future would be to program the front camera or 360 view to come on when you are below 5 mph to help with parking, I don’t think BMW has that option, but they should consider adding it OTA.

    • @BeamerView
      @BeamerView  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I can see how that can be annoying, hopefully they fix it soon! And yes that’s a genius idea, or even if BMW could program the GPS to sense when your in a parking lot it’ll just come on. Like the activation point system they have for the drive recorder.

      I was going to make this exact point. Do NOT unlock all doors as a default option. This is a thieves best friend and you don't want to make friends with thieves. I see this around my area all the time when people fill up at a gas station and put their car in park, all their doors open up, BAD idea. The thieves are lurking around and I've seen them getting in the passenger side doors and stealing purses and whatever else is laying around in the vehicle. I'm sure there are good areas where this is will be OK but generally, not a good idea..

    Well for the AC sync you can use the voice command.
    About the map... The minimap in the dashboard is already driving direction, as is the HUD one, I prefer to keep the map on the side north up.
    The pop-up thing is interesting.

    I have the on-board GPS completely way off of my real location on my recent 3-Series. Pressing the volume button a long time for a dashboard reset, using the BMW map update via USB or even entering a location hoping it would recalibrate itself doesn't help. I guess I will need to bring the car to the garage for some intervention.

    I really hate this steering intervention feature. At a particular roadworks patch they painted the original dotted line with a black paint. On a rainy day this line was shinny and my X5 literarily swerved on to the oncoming traffic.
    You mentioned about the arrow on the map pointing opposite direction and change it from the settings. What I did was to just got the compass icon on the screen (without changing anything from car settings) and it adjusted itself to the normal forward direction. You can give a try. Love your videos mate!

    Great video, Can you cover the i drive 7 climate control. I understood that if you select auto, that the fan speed lines gauge in the center would visually go up and down based on the temp you set. Not the case the fan lines stay the same, but the fans speed can be heard going up or down. Hmmmm.. Your take?

    • @BeamerView
      @BeamerView  ปีที่แล้ว

      Great question. I know exactly what you mean being a bmw owner myself.
      My best input is the fact that if the desired temperature of the car is way off then it’ll purposely blow the fans more than what it’s set to in order to reach that temp.
      I’ve noticed that once the temperature is reached the fan meter is more accurate in terms of speed.
      You can control the air speed but the temperature of the air blowing in will feel similar to what your temperature is set to.
      It’s odd how BMW does it. You would think air speed would be a function that isn’t controllable when it’s set to auto but personally I do like the fact that I can control the speed while being in auto!

      Yes, usually the system inside will stay on until you lock the car or turn off the system manually, the way you manually do it is by holding down the volume knob for 3 secs. Once you do that the phone should detach from the system and it should just play through the phone. Let me know if you've already tried this.

    • @BeamerView

      There is a way but it is quite tedious to get to it. When you're in the parking assistance screen where you see the top down view of your car and the rear view camera, there is a hidden tab to the left of the screen that you can slide over and that should get you to see "3D VIEW" and "car wash" select 3d View. You'll see your car in 3D, and now when you press the small lines going around your vehicle you can select which view you want. I think I may have demonstrated this in my 30+ Hidden Tricks Video.

    I have a 2017 BMW Mini Clubman. The big discovery for me was that, in addition to all the TH-cam vids about Mini's, I could also view those about BMW's. SO many features are identical between the two. They just have a different style. Re: the auto stop/start feature: I don't want it, don't like it. Which brings me to my second big discovery: the Bimmercode app! With that, I was able to completely remove any trace of auto stop/start. If desired, the feature can be brought back using the same app. I'm surprised that I haven't heard you mention it. The Bimmercode app.

    Great hack and tips here... Just follow your channel recently and watch a few of your videos. Can I check with you if there is any tips that the car will always be set at SPORT mode each time i step into the car? I have tried linking my key to the car, create Profile ID for it, but each time i step back to the car, it is default as comfort mode.

      Hey Arthur, it's one of the most popular questions we get. BMW does not allow you have it set so that it begins in sport or eco mode. Not sure why they do this, but it's been like that forever! Hopefully they change it soon!

    Hey @beamerview so this is related to Remote start. I noticed that no matter what if I use the key of the app the heated steering wheel turns on, is there anyway to deactivate this when you remote start?

    • @BeamerView
      @BeamerView  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have seen that as a glitch once but the first thing I would check would be inside your CLIMATE CONTROL MENU, there is a option there called climate control rules. I would check to see if that is set so that it turns on all by itself if the temperature falls below a certain degree. Try that first, if not I would also try making sure the heated wheel is off when you exit the vehicle.

    I think it is absolutely perfect that only the driver's door is unlocked at the first press and other doors if you press again.
    If you are alone and have the car parked e.g. in a parking lot with a lot of shady individuals, it is quite nice that the only driver's door is unlocked, so that no one pulls open any of the doors on the other side and snatches a camera, bag or something else.
    It is not such a big hassle to press twice if you are with the family to open their doors.
    For the same reason, I have programmed so that the doors lock automatically when you start driving.

    • @BeamerView

      If you don't find any of the annoying features "annoying" then just skip his tip. People have to learn if they don't like something, change it and then a car jacker jumps in the passenger door that is now unlocked. That is for the owner to figure out, quit trying to educate people who don't care to figure it out themselves. Your point is good, but his point was if it is annoying to you, then "this" is how you change it. Let Darwin's theory work on those who don't care to stop and "think about their situation" before making any changes.

      Couple things to make sure are done. Make sure your wife has her own key and her own profile set and used whenever she’s in the vehicle.
      The profiles are set to each key and works the best when all the profiles are made and set.
      If she’s operating with your key and your profile the car will think it’s still you in the car and even if she’s on guest it could cause confusion to the car.

      When you set up your driver profile, you want to keep only your key in the car so that it it'll link to your profile.
      You're husbands profile cannot be guest, and would advise not using it since you could lose your settings. Best bet would be him to also get the MY BMW APP, and using his own email and password, setup to the vehicle. Then when he makes his profile just make sure his key is in and yours is out, and it'll link to his profile.

      Unfortunately not. BMWs only start in comfort mode, has to do with laws. Since the vehicle has to start in the mode to get the fuel economy numbers that are advertised on the window sticker.

      Hey Jen! Thanks for reaching out. To my knowledge there is a way.
      You can keep google maps running but, you have to download the Sirius app on your phone and use that for music in order to have both be available.
      If you use the Sirius that’s built into the car it won’t work as you can only have one music source at one time (bmw source vs Apple CarPlay/android auto)

    Locking the car after you get out also turns everything inside the car off too. A little annoying when you park your car in the garage, no need to lock it when it's already secured. But I find it's easier to press the lock button after I'm out than hold down the volume button for 3 seconds before getting out.

    • @BeamerView
      @BeamerView  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You’re correct. Locking the car is easier. This is mainly for those that park in the garage, leaving it unlocked with the key left inside.

If I touch the phone again the volume will turn back on along with the single chime. This happens constantly while I am connected via Bluetooth.

      I'd check your Phone settings, a couple things to make sure is if your Phone is up to date with the latest software.
      Also try another phone to see if its doing the same thing to make sure it's not the vehicle.
      Lastly, check your iPhone's do not disturb setting for when it's connected to the vehicle. They have a setting where iPhone will lock itself or etc when it's connected to a car.

      It should only go off when you say "Hello BMW" unless the wake word was changed to something else.
      If you want to deactivate that feature, you do it in settings.
      HOME SCREEN > CAR > SETTINGS > GENERAL SETTINGS > You should see PERSONAL ASSISTANT here; if not, go into IDRIVE SETTINGS, and it should be in there.
