My Ride: BMW 530i Executive Sedan
Default

Hello,

Got my new 530i last Tuesday and have some questions about the I-drive screen since it seems to be a little different fm my previous E60.

When my BT mobile is paired with the car you can see the 'transmissiontower' icon on the bottom (statusbar) of the screen. When i put it in the snap-in adapter i thought it was supposed the give also the signalstrength next to this icon since it changes to the carantenna. This does not happen...is this okay or should i let it checked?

Furthur the same bottombar does not show the status of the automatic aircon. With my previous car it showed an 'A' for automatic function or 3 little bars for the air flow. The only thing showing now is the RDS data from the FM radio. Has this been changed with the various I-drive upgrades?

Tks
Arnold

When I put my phone (the 6310i) in the adapter, no signal strength icon appears. It never did.

With a software change I got an icon for missed calls, too bad we only get this for missed calls while you are IN the car, it would be nice if it replicates your missed calls out of the phone. Also for missed calls while on the phone (second line), should be added to the missed calls list.

Also for AC, no icons, I have standard AC, might be different.

Bye

The A/C status icons did, in fact, change with software modifications.
