it is a programming feature in the E53, so, it has to be same in the E70/71... for E53 we would use a cable and NCSExpert... do you have those, and know how to use them? otherwise, unless the function is available in your iDrive, you need to talk to the dealer...

Terminator thank you for the answer. I have never used that system. I will look it up. In the idrive there are no options for this settings. I have been looking. But I have read on another forum that other people had the same experience, and person found out that by playing around with the steering wheel eventually makes it loose the memory setting. Do I need a device and computer to use that ncs expert?
