Here is another trick that I don't think any of you know about...
1) Stand behind car
2) Tap the BMW logo on your key 3 times
3) Kiss the BMW logo on your key ONCE
4) Spin around 3 times, while looking up at the sky towards god.
5) Open your trunk manually and WHA-LA!
A beautiful blonde, with every perfect feature you've ever dreamed of should appear.
If it doesn't work the first time, repeat immediately.
PS - This trick only works in very crowded parking lots with a lot of people around.

Redhead is the default on Canadian models.......you will have to get the dealer to re-program to get a blonde.
I think I'll check out the "B" pressure monitors before I send her back

I'm with Rudy on this one. Even though bardel is right and "at" 5 mph increments is tecnically correct, I bet 80% of people who read it will assume that it means going up/down from the current speed by 5 mph. So in the interest of clarity I would have explained it in a longer sentence like Rudy did. ![Thumbsup](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/thumbsup.gif)

Not on all cars though -- it depends on the options you have.
My 2004 car had the "compartment" there but my 2008 car does not...

From what I understood, the compartment is only present if the car has Logic 7. My old 2005 535d did not have the compartment, but my 2007 M5 does. The bigger logic 7 amp means the panel is a slightly different shape creating a empty space below. The empty space was put to use creating the storage compartment.
My 2004 330xi has it, and i donot have Logic 7 .......

Here's a neat one:
If you stick your key in the keyhole in the door then turn it, you can open the door without having to use the remote.
