It doesn't pivot. I was annoyed at this at first, until I realized that if it did pivot, it wouldn't really cover much up. The side-frame is low, and you can easily eye-ball that a pivotting visor isn't going to cover anything when swung over. Now, if it had a fold-down option along with a...
IMHO, the wireless charging as implemented by BMW is total garbage. It's not just a charger. There's a repeater as well that connects the phone's antenna to an auxilary antenna in the roof. Link to the manual/info for the repeater module here.
There's a complicated detection and handoff to...
If you don't disconnect the battery and then remove the airbag, my understanding is it will throw an airbag code. I don't have direct experience in clearing this code, but I would think Bimmercode (not BimmerLink) should have the ability to both read and reset any code in the car, including...
I'd say installation is about a 6 difficulty (scale of 1 to 10) and takes about 2 hours. You have to disconnect the battery. For me, the hardest part was removing the airbag. There's videos that show you the basic procedure. Some come off easy, some are nearly impossible to remove. Mine was...
I have a hunch that some of these problems might be related to "adaptive" programming capability in the latest Motronic ECUs. In the last few years, these systems have gotten more sophisticated in their ability to "learn" driving patterns and adapt. The reports here sound like a glitch in that...
Lucky you, you have good LTE/5G coverage. Some of us live in the West and commute hundreds of miles through empty spaces with no connection. XM/Sirius has been a Godsend for years. I love their service. Can't even get FM stations in many areas I regularly drive.
I have a used red-leather center console for the A90/A91.
In good shape. One small, slight indentation in the leather, circled in photo below.

Thanks!
Why? The parts I listed aren't real carbon, period. Take them off, you'll see the molded plastic, tabs, and imprints. Sure, you can purchase real carbon for many parts, that's great. Other parts you can buy are just overlays and graphics, as I showed.
2021, July 2021 Build Date. Has done this maybe 5-6 times in the last few weeks. 20-sec hold of the volume button will reboot the system if needed. I just let it sit, it seems to reboot on its own.
One thing I've noticed, it tends to crash when doing something related to Carplay. In...
I see a lot of posts with CF parts here. A quick PSA: many of these aren't actual carbon fiber. They're plastic parts with hydro-dipped decals (edit: or perhaps thin overlays). This is the case for all the steering wheels I've seen, and the majority of interior bits, including the OEM center...
Spoilers and Wings are two very different things. Spoilers break up turbulent flow and reduce drag. Properly designed, they improve fuel efficiency. Many cars incorporate spoilers for just this reason.
Wings provide downforce. They also increase drag, substantially. In racing, these 2...
Last month or two, no markups at all. Most folks are getting a decent discount. Minimum of $1500 off (the Toyota rebate amount) up to some really great deals, $4000-6000 off of MSRP.
If you're dealer is asking for *any* markup over MSRP, just laugh your way out of the door. Plenty of dealers...
