E90 wiki

Guys,

I found someone (Xeta) had setup a Wiki for the E90 here:
http://e90.wetpaint.com/

So I decided to add a couple of documents to it:

http://e90.wetpaint.com/page/iDrive+hidden+menus
http://e90.wetpaint.com/page/BC+hidden+menus
http://e90.wetpaint.com/page/Adding+POI+to+iDrive+Navi

Feel free to make corrections. When I get the time, I will try to add some more pictures of the different menus. This should make it easier to answer newbie questions by just giving them a pointer. It would also help if e90post had a link to this website.

Excellent entries Rob.

One question: for the hidden satnav menu, you indicate that the true speed is measured by the GPS. I always assumed that the true speed comes from the car's on board computer.

To be honest, I guessed since it is under a 'GPS' heading that it is the speed as measured from the GPS data. Any aftermarket GPS will show you your speed, and it will be more accurate then whatever the BC can come up with.

If someone wants to compare the data on that screen with that of an aftermarket GPS, you should know soon enough. Otherwise I can do it myself when I have the time.
