Quick Questions
Now that I've had my F90 for 10 months, I have a few questions that I hope the board has simple answers for that I haven't figured out yet -
1) on my M multifunctional seats, I know I can adjust the width of the seats for my back, but can I adjust with width (not length) of the seats on my legs? 2) There are times I start my car without my phone with me, then I get my phone and its not sync'd to the car, without restarting the car, how do the sync my phone to the car so that its bluetooth connected for calls and iPhone Carplay? 3) on my old E60, I was able to reboot the idrive computer when the car was on (by pressing 3 buttons on the dash at the same time), is there a way to do that on the F90? 4) I use my front camera to park all the time (so that I don't hit the front to the curb). If I first put the car in reserves then put it in drive to park, how do I quickly change the cameras from rear view to front parking view?

2. There are a few ways to do this but probably the easiest is hit the COM button, navigate to mobile devices, select your phone. 3. Hold the radio power button down for about 10 seconds. Once the iDrive turns off it will reboot, update apps, etc. 4. You don't need to put the card in reverse. Hit the park assist button and that will activate the front camera first. You can then rotate the controller in the center console to navigate to the other cameras. Press down on the controller to activate the other camera. Hope that helps!

I'd like to add a few items here I don't understand either on my 2020 M5.
1. Is there no remote start? 2. Sometimes after pushing the button to stop the engine and I open the door the stereo continues to play even after closing the door and will only turn off by locking the car with the fob. 3. When I get in the car I have to activate the cruise control, the M view for heads up display and auto-high beams. I find this strange as the exhaust actuator and auto-wipers seem to be on when I start the car. 4. When I open the passenger door for my girl and touch the inside area that unlocks the doors I hear the actuator but the doors do not unlock unless I use the fob.

2. Same thing happens to me sometimes. I think it happens when I open the door and hit the start button to kill the engine at the same time. If you stop the engine first, then open the door, the radio should turn off. This is selectable in idrvie. 3. Yes. Yes. And Yes. And yes. And yes. 4. I know in idrive you can select if fob opens just drivers door or all doors, but I don't remember if the same is true for convenience opening.

Another stupid question ... in my old E60 I could set the navigation map to align to the direction I'm traveling (so the map spins as the car always travels to the top of the map) ... I'm just not a fan of the map only positioned to North.
