Thumbs up

Does anyone know if its possible to have the current drive gear displayed in the HUD ?

Looking at the dislay settings options it's not available which suprised me.

I'm new to this forum and the discussions are very helpful.

Thanks

IMO, it gear selection should be a HUD menu option for any E60 that has a manual gear selection option.

What would really be nice, Ice, would be if we could select from a menu of about ten items for any four or five to be displayed in the head up so we could keep the head up.

Thanks for the responses.

Adding info to the HUD might just be a software issue.

Hopefully BMW will address this and make HUD mean what its supposed to mean

The same refers to the ProNav screen. We shud be able to spread the map or put it on the right side (increasing options for the right side).
