Thanks for the video! As a video enthusiast I have to mention that you should try wiping your camera next time, it was quite dirty in this one. At 0:05 the vertical light lines around the bright areas (the windows in this case) are because of that.
One thing I found disturbing with this new system is when I drive with map on, if I want to change AC I will then be presented with a whole window of temp settings and loose my map. Super annoying during city driving when you’re navigating but wants to change ac. Plus it’s all touch screen so you have you get your eyes off the road multiple times
This is what the map in instrument cluster is there to remedy, as well as HUD when equipped… but you can change the temperature without getting out of the map view on the control display by just tapping temp up or down or by using your voice “hey bmw set temperature to X “
You can code the click ok screen to bypass all together, i haven’t seen anything to nix the goodbye screen as of yet. But I’m sure someone somewhere has found a way to. I personally love the goodbye screen for my preconditioning and departure schedules so i know if I’m set for tomorrow or if i need to deactivate it because of a holiday.
@@BMWofFW 2 of us use the car so its not cool if the other is using the car and has friends to see the other being welcomed...lol i coded out the "press ok" screen no prob. maybe i should make a new bmw id named "&" 😂
Hello, I’m on the i drive8 new x7 and I have the bmwID setup already but I can’t find the RUclips app. Could you please tell me how to enable RUclips on I drive8?
this is awful. One big terrible screen. All day long, I am looking at screens, my phone, my home computer, my work computer, etc...etc.. and now to have to deal with this screen in a car. Please, BMW you should have just kept a lot of the buttons. :-(

Hm i just ordered the x7 and seems like im getting the old steering wheel and I have the drivers assist professional
Awesome! You’ll get idrive 8.5 and get highway assistant with eye activated lane change!
These instructions are specific to the car you happen to be 4:48 in, and not to iDrive 8. Most don’t work on my 2023 i4 M 50.
True i4 and 3 series cars are running iDrive8 with Service Pack 18, not 21 like the iX, x1, x7 and upcoming x5/6
Hello, I’m on the i drive8 new x7 and I have the bmwID setup already but I can’t find the RUclips app. Could you please tell me how to enable RUclips on I drive8?
did your car come with the personal eSim 5G?
aka under communication does it say at the top "3/4 steps completed" Setup my 5g eSIM
@@BMWofFW yes but it’s a $20 per month paid service that’s a lot. Is it possible to enable the iPhone screen mirror on ID8 like we have on the ID7?
@@BMWofFW in other countries, bmw new car comes with 3 years unlimited plan for free. For US, you have to pay it on your own from beginning?
@@BMWofFW hi I have 5G eSim with my iXM60. How can I activate or add RUclips just like you have on this car?
How to set the garage door opener in the car?
Garage door opener is still on the rear view mirror. I have a guide going through setup for both static and rolling code doors
@@BMWofFW Can you forward please?
I wish they had kept screen mirroring😢
Shortcuts! Only 4 on the top.
But can you change the"suggestions" below?
Idrive 7 had at least 7 shortcuts .
once you add 4 shortcuts it grows to 8. why take up realestate that you don't need if you only want say 3 shortcuts instead of 6 or 8
How to find average consumption?
trip computer, first option under reduced display in your instrument cluster content.
In that you get your milage for this trip, average consumption as well as instant consumption all in one.
sir im most certainly an idiot
Never insinuate that you are
No words on the iX1. Pitty.
It’s coming… just as a MINI…. The 2025 MINI Countryman SE IS the iX1.
this is awful. One big terrible screen. All day long, I am looking at screens, my phone, my home computer, my work computer, etc...etc.. and now to have to deal with this screen in a car. Please, BMW you should have just kept a lot of the buttons. :-(
Still bunch of screens :p
@@BMWofFW is really sad BMW got rid of just about all the buttons. I thought the previous interiors were so much better.
