Awesome video's, question on 2024 X5 iDrive40i. How do you do a reset of the infotainment system? Put it back into it's factory settings and allow a fresh start, from scratch? BTW I ordered the rear hatch cover from Amazon, coming in soon!
@BeamerView
Жыл бұрын
You can hold down the scroll knob on the multimedia controls on the steering wheel, that resets the trip computer to 0. If you want to do a factory reset, it should be within the settings, try browsing for "reset" see if it pops up.

which option (on an i4) do you need for the Augmented Reality Navigation?
@BeamerView
Жыл бұрын
Rumors were saying that the i4 was going to have it since march 2022 but as of dec 2022 there were still no signs of the feature coming to the i4. Right now it's an ix exclusive feature that does require having the parking assistance plus package. No word yet on the i4. If you wanted my personal take on the augmented reality, it does seem very cool at first, but when i an ix with the feature for a 2 hour drive, I barely ended up using the feature, not sure why but it didn't feel natural taking my eyes off the road to see the virtual view. I would rather opt for the heads up display!

Great video!! Is there a way to disable Lane Departure Warning by Default, so that it gets saved in your ID? Everytime I start the car I need to disable it manually and it is very anoying...
@BeamerView

Here in the US the laws do allow you to keep it off once you turn it off. I have heard stories about this in other countries where laws are more strict and you do have to turn it off all the time. A couple things I would make sure on though it to make sure you have your BMW ID or Driver Profile setup. Worst case, you can save the lane departure setting to a shortcut and access it faster.

You have to set up a BMW ID and keep one key in the vehicle at one time when doing so. It'll be easier to setup the MY BMW App first, and then make the ID because then you can simply scan a QR code when in the setup phase of making a ID.

You mentioned when wanting to charge one's vehicle that one is able to choose a certain departure time for when charging is to be completed, but in that context is it also possible - say during winter - to ensure, while charging, that the car is heated to a certain temperature at a given departure time? And secondly, vice versa, when during an extremely hot summer one wants to have the car cooled before departure to a certain temperature, is this possbible? If so how does one go about doing this in iDrive 8.0.........and did I forget to mention this? Another great video!
@BeamerView
Жыл бұрын
Thanks for reaching out Eric! Yes, so they are two different scenarios, but both are very similar, I still have yet to test both since it's all new to everyone. But basically, the charge time can be adjusted on the OS8 screen. In terms of heating and cooling, that is done through the MY BMW App; if you see the FAN icon, you can enable it there. But I believe if you scroll down a bit, you should see a small box with the option to schedule your pre-conditioning time.

Only way I can think of is turning off the display using the OPTION button near the idrive controller and selecting turn off display on the screen. Another idea I would try is do the hard reset by holding down the volume knob, when the screen goes black you could quickly wipe down the screen since it takes about 20 seconds to fully boot back up.

The only difference it should be making is the amount of amplified engine noise that will play through the cabin, it may be very faint but that should be the only difference. On and it'll play more of the engine sound in the cabin, vice versa.

Could be a software glitch in the system. I know idrive 8 is still having some minor bugs here and there. One thing to try is the iDrive reset (you can do this by holding down the volume button for about 30 secs and let go when the screen goes black) this will fix many issues.

Depending on which vehicle you have, if there is not a BC button on the turn indicator stock that you could hold down like the last BMWs. You would simply go into the menu (on the instrument cluster) that shows your total miles and trip computer, and hold down the SCROLLING knob on the steering wheel.

Hey Ray, sorry for the late response. I've been wanting to try to see if this works first. I do not believe that split screen is an option.

There is also the Heads up display which also shows tons of info.
