F10 535 NAV setting question (USA)

czechm8 · 08-09-2010, 03:26 PM

Took a trip this weekend. First time I used the NAV guidance functions. I looked through the iDrive settings with no luck.............Is there a function to change the turn-by-turn guidance volume?

I have a lot of experience with an after-market NAV unit in my other vehicle, which has easy to find volume settings for the guidance. Surely you can increase the volume on the BMW system?

when women is telling you what to do, turn volume up while she talks

Really? It's that easy?
We had tunes playing and couldn't hear squat when the NAV lady was talking. Had to basically turn the radio volume all the way down.

I'll give it a shot. No wonder I couldn't find a setting the menu!
Thanks.

Yeah, it's pretty hidden. You have to time adjusting the volume to just the right moment when the lady speaks. I turned the voice directions off, because I think it talks way too often.
