Got my F11 last Monday and have the iphone app. I can get the door locking / unlocking thing working but I don't have the option for flashing lights and horn. Ive called the connected drive hotline and they tell me only 5 series cars after Oct have this option. Given that it all uses the new combox that doesn't make much sense to me. Does anyone have this working on their tourer?

Unfortunately I can't help you with the iPhone question.
However, since you're the first on these forums that has received his new F11 I must insist that you take pictures of it for all of us to marvel at!

Ha ha. Well - it's white so it needs a wash already. Will try and grab some shots at the weekend after a bit of a clean .

The iPhone app works with my F11. I can sound the horn and flash the lights. I haven't tried the lock/unlock option yet.

There is about a 1 minute delay before the car responds.

Did you get to the bottom of this? I've seen a couple of posts implying that all F11s got the new combox, even pre Sept 10 build, but my dealer looks blank...

Thanks

I am getting mine end of next week. The car has been produced the 18th of October. Dou you think that mine will have all these features over the iPhone apps?
Pics as soon as you can, please.
