First let me say this Forum is great, it has really helped me narrow down my choice.

I have a 535i Xdrive and am extremely happy. Some quick questions that I hope someone can answer;

1. In NAV how do I get the name of the street that I am traveling on? My old NAV would list the street that I am on, I can't get the Bimmer NAV to do the same.

2. WTF?? No sunglasses holder or place to put coins (besides the small ashtray that is way too close and you can hear it rattling around.

Thanks

There is a sunglass holder on your lower left side of the dash...right below the light switch.

Create a split screen with the map on the left and the direction arrow on the right. The name of the street you are on will appear on the right screen.

On the f1, the arrows only show the street of your next turn. There is a split screen content setting called "position info" that tells you the street you are currently on, among other things.
