Independent mode blower.

Has anyone tried out this feature on their cars? It basically means you can set the blowers to come on at a certain time, when set via I drive. Might be useful to cool the car down a bit before you get into it in this warm weather?

I don't have I-drive but that sounds like a good feature. I generally unlock the whole car (windows from remote) as I'm walking to it.

On the same sort of subject, is there a way to have both passenger and driver side fans work simultaneously and not independently?

I use that feature all the time in this weather and you can turn it on from your iPhone too if you have connected drive.

You can also set aux ventilation on non-iDrive cars too.

I don't use it in fear of draining battery.
Plus I find opening the window and blasting the air con will cool the car down within like a minute or 2 driving anyway
