Hi All

Quick question my friends 2004 530d I drive has force feed back when you hit the end of scrollable lists etc yet my 2005 520D does not appear to have this feedback.

Is this normal?

My 2005 535D M-Sport has it.

Can be quite annoying at times, as the controller ends up becoming a bit difficult to control. Also when scrolling some distance i.e. traffic delays etc. you scroll from one end, then see something you want to view, but the highlight jumps back to the beginning of the list due to the force feedback.

True! Pro Nav has force feedback, business doesn't.

Yes. I have Pro Nav and Force feedback. I think it's cool and works well when scrolling through lists like phone numbers etc.
