A numer of lines of German Technobabble that mean little to anyone, serve little useful purpose but 'look cool'.

The one in the tach is for testing. BMW dealers know how to access it and what to do and test there.
The one for idrive is pretty much useless for non bmw engineers.
And the one for the nav is misleading you, since informations are not correctly, some are even DIFFERENT in the submenus...

Just as useless as the nav and idrive menu.
