Perhaps a dumb question but does anyone knows what the letter T means in the iDrive screen ?
T for Radio or somewhat ? (when I put the radio off the T is replaced by the mute sign)

goto a radio station and press idrive.
then select 'tp' and watch the T magicall transform into TP (traffic reports)
presumably T means its just set to normal standby mode
although i may be totally wrong

I don't think I have that either. Who knows, though, I am always finding things that I did not know were there.

The "T" means that your car is in signal to receive traffic reports. Its up to you wheather you wish to hear them or not.
