iDrive is part of the Navigation option, so if you ordered the Navi option ($2,100, IIRC), you need the iDrive manual.

The Premium package is irrelevant here as the Navi/iDrive is a stand alone option.

For my '08 128i, the iDrive manual included instructions for the radio as many settings are made through the iDrive interface. Cars without Navi/iDrive came with a separate Radio manual - probably the 663 you mention.

(BMW doesn't make life simple, but the 128i is a great car - enjoy!)
