Hello just purchased a new BMW 3 SERIES (F30 Sport) and just a tad confused about the climate control. I have the dual control climate control with the AUTO function and an AC button at the end.

I do keep the Auto button on all the time and as a result the AC button also lights up.

However, is my understanding correct in that the AC button should light on and off once the correct temperature has been achieved or does the AC button stay lit all of the time ?. I hope I have explained this properly.

The second issue I have is that can you fast forward/rewind a CD using controls on the steering wheel or is this only done by the buttons near to the CD player ?.

Thanks in advance.

Please help

Many thanks for the quick reply much appreciated.

In respect of the fast forward /rewind I was just wondering if what you have described is something you can do from the steering wheel too, as I can't seem to find it on there. Hope that makes sense.

Thanks

Sorry but just another query as to what the purpose of the knurled wheel is. Surely this defeats the object of adjusting the temperature knobs?.

Bit confused by what this wheel is meant to do.

Thanks all.

Many thanks. It does seem a bit odd. I think I will give your suggestion a try tomorrow morning as I am sure you are correct in terms of the centre vents.

The thing is I have actually gone through the manual but even that is quite ambiguous in terms of its purpose!!!!.

Is there any way to sync the climate control settings for the passenger and driver?
Unfortunately not
Thanks, I didn't think so. My OCD doesn't like it frown
Ha..ha.. unfortunately neither does my OCD !!!. Shame it can't be synced automatically.
