I think the Rev matchin actually works in other gears and I think it works in both directions for shifts up from hight revs to downshifts for low revs.

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but my 335 has an unmarked button below the fog light button.
When selected an amber version of the fog light comes up on the dash, but points the other direction. Rear Fog lights. Also useful when being tailgated and you want to freak out the idiot behind you. They are bright and to the untrained eye look just like you stomped on the brakes. |

Those rear fog lights are a mod. Most likely someone took the switch out and enabled the button to work like I did. Still have never used them.

Of course, those other drivers almost certainly have no clue what I'm getting at. Mostly I just don't like buttons that could work but don't.

I have mine programmed with Carly to turn them on with the welcome lights. Those rear fogs are BRIGHT indeed.

I survived
It took me 2 weeks to read this entire thread since I only read it at work. I want to thank all that added their 2 cents. It was very helpful.

Just noticed that, if on, the fog lights automatically turn off when the high beams are turned on. When the high beams are turned off, the fog lights come back on automatically (if they were already on previously).

If you have HIDs the fog lights remain on when the headlights aew switched to highbeam.

To add to the list: - Mirrors can fold in on lock - Windows can be set to close with fob/CA instead of open - There is a UK English iDrive voice - NOAA Weather band radio is an accessible option - The OBC has a velocity display - Some later 3-series can have HP & torque graphs in iDrive - The doors can be set to automatically unlock after the engine is shut off - The key fob can be set to automatically eject after the engine is shut off - The OBC has 3 levels of headlight sensitivity that you can adjust - There is a 2nd threshold of adaptive brake force display that flashes the brake lights when ABS is activated - The car can be classified as a police vehicle. I don't know what this does. - Oil change intervals can be automatically set to 7,500 & 10,000 miles instead of 15,000 - The wipers can be set to fully complete their wipe and return to the park position if you lock the car and they're mid-wipe - N55 vehicles can get the Performance Power Kit flash for free Last edited by Welcome to NBA Jam; 09-20-2017 at 10:49 AM.. |

Small rocks get trapped in the rear control arms at the lower shock mount.
