Yes, I have it on Auto. I always set it to auto and leave it. It's too complicated to fuss with manually, especially while driving.

Is there a full list of commands somewhere on this site? I do like this feature... I just don't think "the voice" likes my accent

PS: I'm still trying to find a command to switch to the iPod. I've tried "audio aux" and "iPod", both of which are claimed to work.

In case you missed this, from the great 'information' page that demonstrates what a useful forum this is...

So I'm playing around with iDrive throwing undocumented voice commands at it when I say "Engine Off." Then it responds with "Automatic Programs, Intensive" and displays "intense" on the status bar at the bottom of the screen. What does this mean? My car isn't going to freak out on me one day, is it?? 
Nice try, If I were you I would check with somebody I trust who works at the dealership. I already know a guy there, I will ask him and give you an update :-)

On my car, saying "iPod" causes the car to echo back "USB" and it switches to the USB interface. Obviously, when I say "USB" the same thing happens...
"iPod" - brings up the parked car ventilation screen
"USB" - brings up a lights/locks config screen
"Audio Aux" - gets a "Please repeat" response
"Audio Auxillary" brings up the Audio tone screen, or maybe vise versa with the above response....
"track xx" doesn't work either
If I say "Options" while on the iPod screen, I get about 3 choices for "FM radio", AM radio", etc.
I wonder if my car is not coded for the iPod adapter or has such an early SW level its buggy?

Hmmm, on my 550i (7/07 build date) the following happens with the commands:
"iPod" - brings up the parked car ventilation screen
"USB" - brings up a lights/locks config screen
"Audio Aux" - gets a "Please repeat" response
"Audio Auxillary" brings up the Audio tone screen, or maybe vise versa with the above response....

For the CD, instead of saying "track #," just say "#." That works for me. But probably because I'm already on the CD screen.Our cars are sisters. Mine was built 7/07, too.
