- why does the radio continue until you close the door? I play too loudly for that
Haven't noticed that - sorry, can't help
- why is there an aircon timer?
I think that's what previously was known as Residual Heat, but now with a timer
- what are additional indicators?
Pass
- where is the residual heat function?
See above
- how much @ how fast does speed related volume setting change?
Never noticed it changing, so it must be pretty good
- when I voice dial - is the phone or the car phone book answering?
Pass
- what are the auto relock scenarios and dangers?
Pass
- how I lock the car when I'm in it without getting the key out?
Press the button between the centre face level vents
- can I unlock the other doors when I pick someone up without getting key out?
As above
- why did the passenger seat back suddenly 'unrecline' with no-one in it??
You had the Invisible Man in the car
- what does SPORT drivetrain consist of if I deselect it?
It depends on whether or not you have Adaptive Drive and what option you select - 'Chassis only' alters roll bars, dampers, and steering response. 'Drivetrain only' alters throttle and shift response and restricts 8th gear. Personally, I have sport configured to chassis only and when I want the lot, I select sport+
- why is there a pimple on the centre screen right hand plastic bit??
It's a camera linked directly to BMW to see how often you pick your nose
- is S/W 003.004.037 (or was it 031?) the latest?
Pass
- how can you get back to S(7) after manually overriding to M(8)?
You have to move the gear selector sideways
