Holy crap!!!!
You da man!

I tried checking those instructions and I noticed it "jumps" to E64 folder, but one would think that doesn't matter. There's also an E36 in pics so the procedure must be the same with numerous models .

ps. Save the link for other purposes too!

Here's a stupid question LOL... how do I check the engine temp???
Can't find it in iDrive and there is no guage!

Anzafin

Just a sec...

edit:

Follow these instructions to open the "hidden" menu. The engine coolant temp can be monitored in folder 07.00. It's not mentioned in the instructions, but the menu can be accessed also when the engine is running (at least I can).

that's cool - I found my way. Thanks very much for this - I'm gonna print all this out and get a binder going in case they dump it!

No problem, good luck .

Sry that last post was in regards to linking to the E34 - I still need the 'how to find engine temp' help :-)
(I should learn to use that 'reply' button ;-)

Ummm, sorry I'm not fully following you now.
So you need to see engine temps in your E60, or E34? The "hidden menu" link that I posted above tells the way to see engine temps in E60.

Must be the language barrier....
