IMO the office function is a joke and BMW should be ashamed of it. i seriously hope they bring out some sort of update soon so you don't have to turn the mail app on your iPhone off every bloody time you get into the car.

You dont have to - you need to change the amount of unread messages to show in the notification center

Settings - Notifications - Mail - Show - change (eithe 1, 5 or 10 messages)

This is a also a pain.

I don't have that light on my cars rear mirror but I think H has it on his Havana sedan. Am I correct H ? I did have it on my 2009 Z4 but not the X5. I remember the dealer saying it was for the car alarm. I could be wrong.

[HFW003]

Yes, my Havana sedan does have the little light. The Mineral Grey sedan also had it.

Too many people in every stop and can't have much solo spot for the car shots. At the end I prefer the rest area at the royal national park near the waterfall t intersection. The car was brilliant on sport mode cruising the coastal drive from Wollongong to national park. The car actually handling well on comfort mode too. So far I had 375 km on the odometer but already used 2/3 of the tank. I will be hard pressed if I could get the officially city fuel consumption rating even using ass and Eco pro.

I need to get windows tinted ASAP. Was a bit burning from the warm sun yesterday

Those aerial shots. Where is that place? and what are you looking down on?

[KT_F31_EBII]

the first pic is from Stanwell Top where they have the wind gliding take off point, the second picture is from Bulli lookout from the Princes Highway before going downhill to wollongong. They now have three stops to Bulli lookout, 1. function centre, 2 a cafe and 3 visitor centre. The second one has the best view.

I was on princes highway to kiama then on the way back, drove back through seacliff bridge scenic route and went up to Stanwell Top and finally through Royal national park and exit at waterfall (was 4.30pm by then, so didn't go any further). The last photos were taken just before the turn off back to Waterfall exit. Just be careful, cops were definitely there to catch speeding motorcycle and cars!

Just got my first screw puncture on my rear right 19" wheel. lucky is a very short thread 6mm screw, went to tyrepower and the mechanics said it's my lucky day not getting through the wall. so no need to go to supercheap auto to get the glue...

sometimes, i don't really like our next door company unwrapping wooden crate and made big mess on the common road!

and i also took the tyre insurance from BMW... if i need to replace it, it will be covered.

Worked 95% on the pacific highway from Sydney to port Stephens this evening. Only 2 occasions: 1. The car next to me while taking over the high beam was turned on the highway and 2. On a bend that the camera couldn't see the oncoming car. Sad that I got the beamed back:-(.

If you have to drive on freeway and country road it is a must to have these three lighting options.

In the side note, didn't notice my rear view centre and side mirrors dimmed at all from glaring lights. Any advise. Don't they dim automatically. My accord euro did it very well.
