i'll have to take photo in morning, to late now.
But in my 2008 320D it's on the right hand side, where the car battery is kept. on the cover you'll see a lil hole with a button! press it and the tow-bar drops down. ( you have to manually lift it to lock it in place) Press the button again to release it. ( again you have to manually push it back inside the 'trunk') let me know if you found it! |

Just found out that there is a plastic sieve/grill on either side of the microfilter that prevents larger objects from blocking the drain passage. It's detachable for easy clean up.

When you have the speed warning set to a certain speed limit, the warning "limit" light and audible tone is not based on the speedometer reading (which is incorrect for BMW's) but on the actual speed...or much closer to it than indicated on the speedometer.

That is what ABS actually stands for..."anti-lock braking system", duh! Can you guess what it is meant to do?

folks, please don't take things out of context and read the entire thread before making any "smart ass" comments.
the original question I was answering is how to avoid triggering ABS (which I doubt in your generation can even contemplate how people drove without ABS). Quote:

And if you really paid attention, if one is to read the entire thread (as you mentioned), the "original" question or topic was "Things you didn't know about your 3 series". Nothing at all to do with ABS. |

I beg to differ. I have a 2011 328i xDrive and have neither heated mirrors nor headlight washers. Wish I did but was last 2011 on the lot!

I would much rather have the "Residual Heat" function than the "All" function.

If you put the mirror switch to the Driver's side, your passenger side mirror will tilt down when you are in reverse. If you put the switch to passenger side, that feature is turned off.

I think that was a holder for the enclosure when you used the plastic emergency key. (You keep the key with you, but use the enclosure to use the key in the socket on the dash.)
