I thought I knew everything in the manual until I reviewed the CD!
 

The CD with my 2005 is so detailed I went over all of it.

I discouvered that my arm rest can slide forward! :doh:

And I can program only the data I want to see on my in dash display instead of scroling throught 12 items to get to what time is it! :gun:

Along with a bunch of other little things.

I love this SAV. :2thumbs:

We need a new icon that say VTFCD (view the F****** CD) along with :rtfm:

hey do you know if we can get the altitude on our nav screen??? I saw a pic of another X5 and he had the alt listed along with gps coordinates in split screen nav. Might have been a euro truck.

hmmmmm :)

USA version does that to.
Just go to settings then screen then split screen.
When you back to gps you will have map or CD or Tape or iPod or radio on the left and data on the right.
Tha data lists city, street and altitude.
Way cool!

I've got a 2001 4.4i with nav (US truck). If you go to the "Map" (only) function the nav screen will display your position on the map with the right split displaying altitude (in 20 foot increments) and GPS coordinates.

It will not show altitude or coordinates if you are being guided to a destination.

aha I got it. :)

jaax3 must be correct, b/c the last time I tried to find my alt. I was in guide mode and it would not show up.


thanks :)

So where is the ISO and where will it be posted?

Premier Members may soon see something on this (similar to the Tech Ref ;) )

If while you are in guide mode you terminate your destination and then go to the "Map" only function you will get altitude/GPS data AND will still be routed on the map (white line) but will NOT get verbal directions, so you can "kind of" have both functions on screen at the same time.

sorry, don't have the cd - how do you slide the armrest forward? :confused:

thanks.
