Center console button assignments ?
 

There appear to be spaces for 9 buttons in the center console. Has anyone identified more than 6 assigned so far?

1.
2. Active Seat for driver
3. Park Distance Control
4. Dynamic Traction Control off
5. Hill Descent Control
6. Open Tailgate
7.
8. Active seat for passenger
9.

I see only 8. Where is the 9th?
I think the extras are to add a button in the future if needed for any accessories.

So far at least, its:

1. Blank
2. Active Seat for driver
3. Park Distance Control
4. Dynamic Traction Control off
5. Hill Descent Control
6. Open Tailgate
7. Blank
8. Active seat for passenger
9. Blank

Of course if you dont order active seat, you get two larger blanks on the left and right side of the core 4 middle buttons.

Ok I have 9.
So what are they for?

2 blanks are for front seats eject buttons which come with James Bond package. :D

So which Bond girl will be riding with me? :thumbup:
They need to start using BMW's again in the movies, although the DBS is very nice.

- Yeah the picture is cut off, that's why you don't see the 1st blank. (It's the clearest photo I could find so I cropped it as best I could.)
- Bond Girl - Pussy Galore, hands down.
- BMW in the movies, Good God never again. The World was not enough was pure shit and one big long commercial....vodka, bmw, omega, etc. No plot, terrible acting, lousy Bond chick (michelle yeow...ughhh), retarded villian (jonathan price with borderline heart failure and extreme shortness of breath)......

Anyway let's get back on topic. I was just wondering if anyone, particularly in Europe, has seen any more of them filled yet?

they area using the blanks on the M cars, X6 M and X5 M (don't ask for a reference I don't have one) :)


BTW, did you know that on my 07 4.8i, there is an AUTO H light cutout in the main cluster panel, even thought BMW say Auto H is a "new" feature on the 08's?

They are definitely withholding
my 2 cents

That makes no sense. For what functions?

I don't remember I have a button for active seat for passenger.:confused:
I only remember the active seat for driver.
I gotta check it tomorrow morning.
