Are you kidding?
In my new-to-me '08 135i, do I REALLY need to adjust the driver's side and passsenger side temperature settings separately?? Does BMW assume there are always two people on board who cannot agree to a common temp setting?

Also, it would be the passenger side in the US of A.

Thanks for confirming. Just seems an odd oversight. On most cars, a common setting is the default. Oh well, if this is the worst gripe about the car, I'll be quite happy...

Its an innocent question..
but wait till he finds out about the: Double pull door handles, the hood that gets sprayed from the headlamp washers when only really wanting to wash windshield the poor key-fob reception the radio display that he cant see with his polorized sunglasses the oddities about the usb/ aux/ iphone connections the warping in of the "HD" radio signal... enjoy your new car !!!! ( honestly, they are little things and you get used to them)

Do 2010+ models not have any REST function at all? I would gladly take REST over ALL and just put up with fiddling with the knobs on both sides.

He's a newbie go easy on him. I could care less about the hvac controls I just wish my throttle delay would be fixed.

Yea, but the function can be changed through coding. I don't know if the reverse is true and you can have the REST changed to ALL, but I would assume its possible.

If it makes you feel better, in all my excitement of finally being able to purchase my first brand new car with 4 total miles on it, I failed to notice that I was purchasing the severely neutered sound system version that consisted of missing tweeters and fabricated sound fields. To make matters worse they (read: BMW) realized their f-up and reverted back to the better system 2 months after I walked off the lot.

The only thing that happens when one side is set to like 70F and the other is set to 80F is that the "warmer" side vent will have slightly warmer air coming from it. Auto HVAC just sucks, period. Give me 1 temp control that actually gives me the temp I want instead of the computer deciding that it's warm enough so I'll blow cool air now. |
