I tried "warp speed" a few times but it doesn't help. 
I never use the voice command...my wife won't let me drive my car.
I had to plan the Midwest Meet just to get my car back for a weekend.

Does BMW offer a Tagalog version in the States?

Nope, there's another reason I don't use the Voice command.

I use it for entertainment (CD track, FM etc).
I also use it to get to the speed limit gong menu when I want to turn that on because I'm in another country or on an Autobahn that's restricted.
Other than that I don't bother. To switch from CD to FM I use one of the steering wheel buttons which I've programmed to go to the next audio source (with an annoying crackly interlude at Long Wave in between). The other button I've set to be the audio mute.
If I had phone integration I'd use voice commands for that too, but I don't

My car doesn't understand me. I gave up.
Its embarassing, a buddy wanted me to show him how it works. Everytime I would say something, it would goto something else which is completly different!
eg
I say "Navigation"
It will say "date and time" and go there lol
But if you really carefully, with effort say something correctly it will recognize it.
