Hello all.. This is my first BMW. Im comming from the subaru world. I picked up my 09 135i with 31k miles sport/premium/navi/hi-fi sound/blue tooth/m package and tire package for 27k out the door. Looking foward to modding at my local shop active autowerke...A couple of questions any mods to be able to view a dvd movie on the navi? Any way to make the car honk or beep when you lock it? other than that i figured out how to use all the other features.. I will post some pics as soon as i get home...

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your 1er!

As for your questions, I'm not sure about playing a DVD using your nav, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that it is possible. The car audio or general forums would be a good place to start looking for answers to that one. You can most definitely make the car beep or honk when you lock it, all you need to do is look in the owner's manual. If your car didn't come with an owner's manual then there should be instructions on how to access that feature through the cars on-board computer on the BMW NA website.

I look forward to seeing your pictures! If you're ever in the Orlando area you should stop by one of our weekly Wednesday meets!
