steering wheel button issue

hi folks

picked up my new 3.0sd m sport today (see pic) and i'm still playing around with the controls... but there is one thing that has puzzled me... on the steering wheel the button that increases the stereo volume works fine but the decrease volume button seems to dial the last phone number on my iphone....

has anyone else experienced this or know how to get around it!

Thanks!

Poke around in the idrive system

Theres some functionality in there that allows you to set what these buttons do. I think under the "i" area...

I hope she is as lucky as I’ve been so far.

What options did you get in yours?

What does the telephone button on the steering wheel do? i.e dial the last number on your iPhone as it should or put the volume down?
