Yes and no. Yes, in the sense that the correct application of iDrive clicks will get you to the menu. No - AFAIK - because what you have there is the last overall recoding of the car (or possibly even the coding at production), not any specific patch that has been applied.

At least the image linked in the other forum confirms that 24.00 is a specific fix for the eyebrows. But what is "VC"?

A tip.

On e60.net always check out cobradev's posts for Program and SIB info.

Problem is. I am not able to get to this "secret" menu

Don't know what am I doing wrong:

Does the engine need to be running?

When he says Turn right 3 clicks does it mean mean move the i-drive knob 3 times to the right. Or turn in clockwise 3 times Or is he talking about the indicators.

Thanks

I could be wrong, but I believe the VC refers to Voice Control.

If you search for "secret menu" in the forum search you will find an interesting history of this topic.

The engine does not need to be running. You can get to the menu with the car moving, or at a standstill with engine off and key in Pos II. Right 3 clicks on the iDrive means turn the knob to the right and count the "mechanical" clicks that your hand feels as the pointer goes across the menu items. Nothing to do with indicators.

Besides this secret menue there is a secret nav menue and the tech menu, which can also be shown on the HUD.
