    Appreciate the video. I have an older BMW. When text messages or emails come in I only see a little envelope icon and have to navigate to see the message or have it read. I use a hot key to display text messages. Not sure how the text messages come through on newer models though.
    Couple of items for your consideration. Maybe slow down a bit. I realize you are trying to squeeze in a lot of information and don't want the video to be too long. I had to slow down the playback speed for my Southern ears. LOL. Also, if you would have the phone connected to show the Apple Car Play bits that would be more helpful than having to imagine it. Thanks again.

    You mentioned the Amazon key fob case. I bought one and it was nice. But you cannot replace the battery or extract the emergency key without opening the case by unscrewing the very tiny screws with the special screwdriver that you don’t have on you during the emergency. And then you have to reassemble it. I got rid of the case.

    • @BeamerView

For the unfortunate reason you lock your fob in the car, or loose your fob. The battery needs to be changed no less then once a year. Some people’s just don’t get it.

    • @BeamerView
      @BeamerView  9 місяців тому

      I don't think this is possible unless you manually go into the back and do it, but one thing you could check into is.. on your climate control button row, you should see a "menu" button that takes you into the climate control menu. You should see some items there such as "sync" or "climate control rules". If there was a way to accomplish this for the back rows, it would be a setting located here.
