I know this is a 2 year old video, but my father passed away a couple of months ago and I inherited his 2009 528i. I ran across your video while trying to learn more about the vehicle and this helped me immensely. Great job!
Hi Alan, sorry to hear about your loss. Glad to help!
Hey man, I got the exact same car about 2 months ago! I love it so far
@@jakemaner2851 how was the maintenance?
Same here alan …dad passed away 4 days ago just here looking thru some cool features he left me with.. mine is a 09 528i
@@Jr.R26 - I am terribly sorry for your loss, sir. My deepest condolences to you and your family. Cherish those memories and the vehicle.
Thanks! I'll try these secrets on my 2006 520d E60
Good info! I just bought a used one so this is more fun than reading the manual 😉
Wao this is so helpful. I have own this car and I never knew this all along. Thanks bro
I knew about everything but how to roll up the windows and the secret menu... thanks for that! On the valet fob, it's also so they can't open your trunk or glove box (if you lock it using the mechanical key in the real fob). I don't have the plastic key either for the valet fob. I bought my 2010 550i used and those punks must've kept it!
Yep haha!
Yea I knew all except the secret code
Tenho um 5.30 é fantástico. 🤙
Very informative video!
Glad it was helpful!
Very nice useful vid mate!
Glad you think so!
Very interesting
Thx for this video did not know the car can do all this
Welcome home lights available and customisable (pick and choose which lights...light) with coding on any BM from the E39👍🏻
Amazing thanks for that
You're welcome!
Dope God bless bro
Thank you man!
Thanks for the information. Hey you don't know of a place to get the auto dimming side mirror glass from? My right one has gone a bit funky. Not broken but like it's ink running down it.
Thank you
You’re welcome
You should change your side indications to the smoked swooping led ones along with getting led angle eyes. I have an e60 same year and colour as yours and they look good. I've also done my wing mirror covers in a gloss 7D carbon fibre and it blends in really well. Nice vid 🤙
I would do smoked indicators but not a fan of the sequential LED ones
BRUH, I tried opening my trunk and a fucking alarm started going off and woke my whole family up 😭😭😭
Hahaha that’s the panic alarm, it will go off if you hold it down
What about the headlights washer
Where can I get them rims like you have for my 530i
Does this and the E90 models come with door lock deadlock feature?
Hi, i know the video's old but still, on my e60 when you hold the unlock button it opens all the windows+sunroof but when you hold the lock button it does not close them, any tips?
Nice
Thanks as always!
Fantastic! Thank you
Good One Again :)
Do I have to "go ahead" before performing any if these actions? Or can they be done without "going ahead"? And do I need to "go ahead" before I "go ahead"? I think I'm gonna go ahead and stop going ahead before I go ahead , Its hurting my head.
Whole time I thought my air wasn’t working
Hi george . Am i going nuts !
My auxiliary setting /ccc /idrive screen is only alive for 5seconds or
less. When i go to main ignition everything comes alive . I cant have radio on if im waiting cause it lasts 5seconds. I hope u can understand what im trying to explain. Thanks george jamie in NewZealand
How is the consumption of fuel of a e6p 525i
What about the lesser known winter warm up feature or summer cool down...(semi keyless go) if you put the key in the ignition and start the car, then turn the car off, take the key out then put foot on clutch and press start the car will start and run. Then you can get out lock the doors and let the car heat up in winter... or cool in the summer while you grab some bits from the house. :)
I made a video on this👍🏻
You did!! I'm sorry. Only just come across your channel and I was watching old videos. Great channel mate!!
If you have comfort access, you can just start the car and get out; no need to put the key in at all.
Yea that's how I cool and heat my 2008 528xi and keeping the key in my pocket..
Hi George, I've bmw e60 520d 2008, when I drive it for long time in a hot weather and I switch off the engine the car just won't start without showing any fault in the idrive or making any noise. I thought it was the relay located next to the battery when I touched it it feels hot so I replace it but the issue is still there 🤔 any idea what can cause this problem ? Any help is much appreciated and thanks. 👍
Easy starter is going bad, even if it tests as good at auto parts store it still is going bad replace it and watch it work after running it and turning it off I had the same problem
@@_JayR-eb1zd Not a starter issue if he says its only in hit weather... if it's starts in cold the starters fine.
How do I remove my heart rest 2006 530i
In the secret menu I was messing with it trying to turn my brakes sensor off and I don't know what I did but my phone won't connect to my phone and my Bluetooth won't connect anymore can you tell me what I done in the secret menu to do this
Ac filter witch place sir
Wow wat a marathon just to find out the coolant temperature
Hi George , when I fold my mirrors in with the switch on the door and lock it my mirrors fold back out after 5 mins , so frustrating! Do yours do this
No mate can’t say they do
Been in contact with BimmerLink but after a few emails they have no clue either , great work by the way 👌
Gosh I miss my e60
Want to code the remote mirror fold? I'm one of the early purchasers of Carly thus have a lifetime subscription. If you're anywhere near Oxford, just give me a shout.
Appreciate that mate!
Please help me out, i'm south african driving in a 2006 bmw E60 530i and my idrive screen just went off
CCC unit needs replacing
Que et llevas en las llantas?
And here I was thinking my AC didn’t work 😂
Does my BMW 2006 530i have the same features
Roll down windows and sunroof. If it does
Please so me how
Yes
hi george great video
i see that you have the speed on the digital section of the clock how is that done
and can the rest of the info on the lcd be toggled through like the mpg and so on with out having to reset the speed every time that something is used in the lcd
thanks
james
It was coded in, yeah you can toggle back and forth between that and the MPG etc
@@GeorgeAusters thank you for that george
i don't think mine has been coded
mine is also an lci model but i dont have the idrive like yours thanks again keep up the great informative videos
regards
james
james o'connell Yeah it’s something that you can get coded in with BMW software👍🏻
@@GeorgeAusters perfect thank you that good to know
regards
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Have you upgraded your idrive?
Came from factory
Mines is same model, I can roll my windows down but when I hold the lock button they do not go back up
They should do
It's probably not coded yet
@@SmileySparrow how do you do that
Do you have NCS Expert? It's something you can code and enable. I did this to my 6 series, same process.
@@SmileySparrow soooo whats that? And how do i enable that and where and on what??
will it work for a 2008?
This is a 2008
Is there any way to stop the air coming on automatically every time you start the car? Can't see anything in the idrive, and I've read that it's a "normal" feature on these cars? I find it very annoying.
Just turn them off before you leav your car.
@@jamiestanley8774 i do but the air just comes back on. If I start the car again after just a short time, it stays off, but if its been locked for a while, it just comes back on. I've just got used to turning it off as the first "job" when starting the car now to be honest.
@@richardm5664It's common on these E60's..I own 3 of them various series all does the same..
worth buying ???
Definitely!
Bro this car is insane dude 😂 it literally has a spot where water sprays the headlights💀
My 07 525xi has the ability to roll the windows down and open the sunroof with the key, but holding the unlock button does not close them
nevermind ! I found that they disabled rolling up the windows with the key fob on all N.A. models to fit in U.S. regulations
You said you were trying to roll up windows with the unlock button. It's actually the lock button you need to hold down for the windows to go back up.
Could somebody tell me why is that my screen is very different from his ( Same car. even newer 2009 model) Is it a spec issue or maybe Europe and Usa variation models? Mine is from Germany so.. Maybe that's the difference that makes my car different?
Yours have the older idrive screen the CCC unit while his has the newer unit the CIC unit
How do you get back out of the hidden menu ?
Just turn ignition off and back on
👍🏼
🙌🏼
What year is your car
2008
YES BRO this should finish him and You can take the spot !!!!
IM UP NEXT !!
Hahaha
Umm... Do i have outdated idrive or something? This looks nothing like the idrive i am familiar with
You probably CCC… CIC only came in late 2008-10 models
@@GeorgeAusters yea mines a 2006, do any of them work for me?
How good is the e60 motor?
Which one?
@@GeorgeAusters 2004 525i
@@sebastiantapia5868 M54 is pretty good yes
Its a money pit
530i are very reliable
Has anyone gotten a “key fob not detected” message, and the door locks making a funny clicking noise? Mines has been doing it for a week now, on and off. 2015 528i
Trunk?? Noooo georgey boy Dont make the mistake of using american english when your British.
Yeah George, you and I both know it's the boot !
I blame the Boston tea party personally, but being a German motor I'm not sure where we stand 🤔
You’re not your please lol
i own e90 at the moment. is it weird i wanna buy e60 after not even a year owning e90 lol
Not weird at all
I did the exact same thing. After 6 months of owning my e90 I bought the e60, that was a year ago and overall I'm still figuring out if it was good or bad decision
@@David-my2tv interesting, when i bought E60 as a 2nd car, it grew on me even more i want only this car! the dream would be M5 V10 but im more then happy with mine 530d i paid only 6400€ with 285k kms. i love to see them on the road as well.
Does this work on a 2007 one?
Yes
@@GeorgeAusters well i have a 525i sport package one and sadly it doesn’t work
@@GeorgeAusters work on 2003?
@@soulja_krioo8500 Yes
Actually, no of these features are isn't hidden.
What?
E65 ??????
E60 5 series
I got 59 reg e60
What I like in winter times is turning the engine on then taking the key out and press start again within 10 sec and engine will start without key and you clock the car and go home till car is warm
Ps make sure when you start the car first time the door needs to be shut while you switch off and take the key out and press again start button
*Boot
Haha gotta keep it American friendly 😉
Boot? We wear boots to go to work in. Doesn't make sense to call it a boot lol so is a chest a shoe?
Hahahahaha!!! MAN!!! Is that your first BMW?? That option with the button rolling down the windows exists since the very early E46 and E39 hahahahahaha You call it hidden feature hahahahahahahahaha Man,you gotta hide somewhere for good!!
I never said it didn’t exist before but some people still don’t know it even exists today
@@GeorgeAusters fair enough. Most,if not all these hidden options exist in E46 LCI,just need to be activated via ISTA ( depending on the modules ofc ) Cheers ✌️
This a problem car a money pit
This above a idiot a he can't write
I don't know if you will see my comment now, but I have a problem. Please help. I have a BMW E60 2009 and it has a CIC screen, but it does not have a Bluetooth or phone system. How can I activate this feature? 💙💙💙💙🤍🤍🤍
My dog chewed my key causing my unlock button to be stuck I went outside and seen all my windows open and I was tripping like fuck till I looked it up 😭
Does the E90 come with door lock deadlock feature?
