BC Question
 

Why is it some X5's have a BC control on the steering column and on the MID and some only have it on the column? Is it an option?

What's a BC? Board Computer?

i'm thinking he meant OBC.:dunno:
on-board computer?

Symantics strike again...

I am referring to the computer that handles Avg. MPG, Avg. Speed, Miles to 0, etc. BMW factory Owner's Manuals refer to this it as "Computer." The controls for "Computer" are labled "BC"

i'm guessing that this button is something
common to the Business CD? i have NAV and
the button is located on the column as in ur
1st pic.

Same here

Button applies to Biz CD & tape, but not all. That is the part I don't understand. Further, I think the units with BC control on the MID may have more features than those without.

model year maybe?
hopefully someone w/ Business CD
will chime in w/ some input.

I have an 02 3.0 and I have the control on both the stock and the MID. I think the producton date is January. Hope this helps.

Well, those us of with nav have the option in the main menu: On-Board Computer
