Safety feature. No way to disable. Learn to live with it - it is on every other car as well.

I agree that the chime can be a pain. Wish I could change it to a different sound. But I get black ice in my area and below 37 degrees Fahrenheit is about when black ice begins to form on bridges and overpasses. So the warning isn't a bad thing

I noticed that you have a Wagner EVO2. Do you have any logs, say from 1st to 4th gears that show IATs? If not, would you please collect one? I'm trying to collect IAT logs for various Intercoolers. Thanks!

I have had it on every car I have owned, manufactured from 2000 onwards. All European brands (VW, Skoda, Audi, BMW). I find it quite useful actually as one very often isn't aware of the changing environment. It helps me a lot e.g. during mountain journeys to alert me when to expect icing.

My 2002 model year E46 330 had the warning. So at least for bmw it has been on the cars for a while. I only see it half a dozen to a dozen times a year. Now if it had the "hotter than hades" chime of over 100 then yes, I would definitely want to get rid of that chime, since I would see it 4-5 months a year (or so it seems).

BMW have had this at least going back 30+ years. My 92 e34/2 had it.
It’s nice. It only goes off when temp drops to 37 or less, so unless you have a day where it is 37.5 and varies back and forth it should only go off one time.

"Nice" has straight correlation to where you live. This is not "nice" in Finland when it goes off every day for 6 months with no ability to turn it off. Heart stops every time the gong comes on.

Sounds like a personal problem if your heart stops because you hear a 37 degree warning sound.
Dismiss it and move along with your drive like everyone else has done for 3+ decades… leave us alone, BMW knows what they’re doing.

I don't understand what "leave us alone, BMW knows what they’re doing." has anything to do with this. Especially since I'm also here looking for information like the original poster. I don't need to be ridiculed for wanting something turned off that is a major inconvenience in my country where everyone knows to be careful during minus Celsius degrees. We live and breathe winter, use winter tires and know how to drive a car even in winter times. I don't need a chime to tell me what I already know. Last edited by NxTH; 01-23-2022 at 02:31 PM.. |
