Hi!

I'm wondering if exists a cheat to keep turned on the PDC in Drive, like in R .

Thank you!

PS :
And after, which buttons are ctrl+alt+canc for the iDrive ?
Eject CD+Eject DVD+mute ?

But if you push the PDC button then it stays on for a while.
Do you want it to be on all the time?

"while" = 30s ?

Yes, on all time ... But I think it is impossible ..

It turns off after 30 seconds or when driving more than 30 Km/h or more than 30 metres. So, it's impossible to have it on allways.
But you could install a front view camera and connect it to Dom's device...
