I've tried to find it as well...I do remember the sales guy running me through IDrive and had me to change it to split screen...

I sure would like to get it back to full screen...

Yes. When I have the Nav turned on, it can either show full map display or with the the 1/3 assistance screen on the right. The small screen display the distance, name of the roads and when to turn etc.

Yes. After I turned on the map (Full screen), then push the knob to the right (passenger side) to turn on the assistance screen on the right side. Same procedure applies to the rear view camera to turn on the front & rear parking assist display as well.

i concur... full screen works!

but i like the assistance window...

i usually have my ipod music list view and a nav screen on the assistance windows (select "map direction of travel")

when i'm using the NAV alone i use the assistance window to show "arrow with direction of travel" which also counts down distance to next turn as well as name of street or highway exit number...

pretty helpful...

I am sorry to tell you the wrong information about the split screen issue for the NAV display, it can't be done, please accept my apology.

Can you give the step by step directions. It seems like myself and others are having trouble navigating the iDrive so that it shows the '2/3 window' to become full-screen all the time. I know that I can turn the assistance window '1/3 screen' on and off, but cannot take it completely away and allow for the driver side '2/3' screen to become full screen. My assistance window comes up upon starting the car and will stay there. It is never full screen. :confused:

You are right, it can't be done. Please accept my apology.

I can turn the assistance screen off but only has 2/3 of the screen showing, the other 1/3 will black out.

i just checked... seems full screen is only possible on camera backup..and not NAV.. (or i just couldn't find the right settings section)

but definitely full screen on camera backup...
