Re: Current road speed limit sign on dash

You can see them if you look from the outside of the car to your rear view mirror. You see two camera's, each looking a bit to the side.

Re: Current road speed limit sign on dash

Do you have the cameras as well? I find that a great feature with the every changing limits, temporary or not.

Re: Anyone had any problems with the latest BMW Connected app?

After the update, my app is unreliable. I sent a destination to the car, it appeared to be fine, but nothing when I got to the car at all.

Re: X5(E70) and the snow .

I have not found winter wheels for the M, as they need to be 20" as well.

Re: Put deposit on E70 4.0d

Enjoy the car. My previous 40D was a remarkable car performance wise and was much better quality wise than my E53 before it, i.e. it never missed a beat.

Winter wheels / tryes for the X5M

Anyone know what will fit? Bit different from the E53 and E70 models I have had where there were lots and lots of choices by just picking a set of 'SE' wheels of the same model. The M seems a bit "special" that it probably means that I can't get away with a standard set of wheels as the ri...
