Aux ventilation?

Do the m235i's with the tech pkg have aux ventilation? IE vents can circulate air at a specified time to cool the car off inside.

Not sure on the M235i, but my 228i w/ msport, prem and tech has the option to do that in the settings.

My pretty much base Msport 228(No tech or prem package) has that option and it works great on the 90 degree F days we've been having

I believe its settings, climate, then you can set up to two timers. I leave work at 4:00 so I set a timer for 3:45. When I get to my car at 4:00 its at least 20 deg cooler than if I didnt use it. A really nice feature thats apparently standard on all 2 series.

There's also an iPhone app that allows you to activate it. Works for the Canadian cars, not sure the US though.

Does anyone in the US have this working using the BMW Remote App?

This would be incredible in Florida, I can't imagine why they wouldn't allow it in the US.

Maybe there is a way to code it into the car to allow it, or a jailbreak on the phone to install the Canadian app?

I think it's ridiculous if it won't work for the US cars, last I read though it didn't. You guys need it for the warm weather more than we do.

Anyone know how that works. Does it just run off the battery? Having that would be really nice and I'm trying to decide manual or auto for the transmission.

yes, my US car has it, and I tried it at work yesterday and it works fine.

Only caveat is that you have to set it manually every 24 hours. There is no BMW Remote control for it.

Has anyone got this feature to work with the BMW Remote app? I know there are two apps, one for the US and another for everyone else, but can US customers use the international app?

I'm used to having remote start on my GM vehicles and it's nice on 100º+ days to get into a vehicle that has at least been ventilated.
