Cool trick! I'll use it next time at the BMW meet to show off how BMW-literate I am!

Nice find and a good question.

BMW's have had the center console light for a long time.
I really do like it, it works swell and gives a luxurious feeling.

See this.

isnt it the ambient light package that BMW offers

+1 on "Ambience lighting."
I thought it was "Ambient Lighting", as opposed to ambience

When I depress the button for about 15 seconds after 4-5 seconds there is a Triangle with an exclamation point if I keep it depressed then I get to that menu. What does this triangle mean? Is it a quick way for the dealer to check if there are any faults in the computer?

And on the build date is the month first or the day first?

Thank you.

Oh and another member wrote you can check actual speed and voltage and litres and what not but I don't see that in the menu...any help?

Does anyone have a guide that explains what all of the different functions/meanings are? I know what some of them are i.e speed, rpm, etc. but I would like to know what the others mean.
Thank you
