Mistery switch @ 3.0i
 
Hi I own this car now almost 4 years now but there is a button / switch

I have no clue what it does. do you know what it can be ??

there is/was never a aftermarket or retrofit system in this car !!

Oh yeah!!! Don't touch that button! That activates the nukes in Mother Russia and gives more power to North Korea! DONT TOUCH IT!

Anywayssssss. Yeah, don't know. Not on my '01 and '04. So I am assuming that is aftermarket. Have you played around with it? Almost looks like a cut off switch... Like before you leave and lock your car, you hit the switch and it shuts the fuel supply off or something.

Does anything light up on the button its self or on the dash?

Might be a radar/ laser system installed by the previous owner. I had a switch in my e46 that was missing the "brains" but had a sensor in the front.

aftermarket - most likely... i would pull the trim and look where it leads...

Your images are confusing because the perspective doesn't reveal much...only raises more questions.

Why does it look like you have sport seat (in 1st pic)...with extended thigh support...are they powered or manual thigh extensions?

The 2nd pic doesn't give us any indication of where the button is located...is it on the front side of the seat...or the opposite side if th 1st pic?

Do you have heated seat? Or perhaps it's a kill switch?

My answer is why not pull that panel out and see where or what it connect to....

The button is located on the side of the mid console ( driver side ) the extension of the seats are manual but the seat is electric
