Kemal İncekara hello mate, to the best of my knowledge you have to keep unlocking this menu each time to view the temps. It's such a shame in my opinion. I THINK with the beeping you need to get someone to do some coding, to activate it. I think ones this code is in the system then an option will appear on the idrive to allow you activate or deactivate the chirp. My car being a basic Russian one doesn't have the alarm or idrive, so I am unable to test it for you. Sorry. Thanks for the message :) take care

Oh you can activate the temp gauges when you are driving (well sat at the lights for a while) the engine can be running :) I needed to do this whilst driving to my dealer once, after I smelt coolant. Luckily for me it was the chemicals they used to clean the roads :)

Wait, at the moment where you did the system check, all the things your car has will light on to see if it's okay. So I have the F20 116i Urban Line, and if I do the system check on mine, in the middle the Lane Departure sign lights on too, and I also have a camera on my windshield. But I don't have the button to activate the Lane Departure.. Why does my system check show me that I "have the Lane Departure mode" but somehow I think I can't use it..

@@mattsbeamer I read two days ago that you can buy packages from BMW and one those packages included the lane warning system. The thing now is that if you buy it, they would input those cameras and stuff into your car, but I already have the camera and you can also see that lane departure sign on my monitor inside the instrument cluster but it doesn't light up. It only lights up if I do the system check. So I also thought what would they do to my car if I want it to be activated? Will they code something, would they insert a button to use it? Because I mean.. I have those electronical stuff in my car already. I think they would take cash from me to code it to be able to use it

Ilya G hey, driving in Moscow isn’t as bad as you would think. You just need to be careful of those who don’t care about other users. I was nearly crushed by a lorry who over took me and forgot I was there. There are some other instances too. Petrol is very cheap compared to my home country England. It’s about 25 pound to brim the tank. The insurance I have is the top insureance, so I pay a lot because I am a foreigner. The basic insureance thou that everyone must have is very cheap at I think 100 pound. The police have been nice when pulling me over (it’s a normal thing that they do checks in Russia).
