Bear is never right, he is a BMW driver

Not yet I'm not!

Bear, did you order your BMW with or without indicators? Either way you will have to learn not to use them!!

 :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Oh FFS, I've just had to put up with this sh!t at work.  The exact same joke twice today already. :rolleyes:

But yes, I suppose I had better disable the indicators to avoid accidentally changing BMWs hard earned reputation. :tongue:

I'm sure I've got a big hammer in the garage somewhere you can borrow ...  :evil:

Right... Just to clear everything up. Here are the abbreviations in the Owners Manual

From what I can tell:

ACC = Adaptive Cruise Control

DCC = Adaptive Chassis Control

(Nothing mentioned on ADC)

Craig mate! I think you're getting yourself into a pickle...  :grin: ADC is the Automatic Distance Control... You know that camera thingy at the front.. :grin:

You need it switched on or active for the ACC to function.

 :grin: :grin:  :grin: Feck sake, there are far to many acronyms. Where in the menu do you switch it on?

Craig mate... Go into Menu on the infotainment system

Then Vehicle
Then "Setup"
Then "Driver Assistance"
Then scroll down to "Front assist"
Press "Active"

Hope that helps bud!  :wink:

Mate!!! That looks 'Sweet'!.... :cool:

It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the 19" alloys , in terms of ride quality. Mine are shocking, even with the DCC set to comfort. Bugger to clean as well. Cleaned mine just today and discovered there's a lip that runs behind the spokes which is difficult to get to... Just collects brake dust!!!! So annoying..  :angry: (I think the alloys on the M135i have a similar problem)
