Rest button
Hey guys.
Does the f30 have the rest button? I think that's what it's called... It's the button that keeps the heat going in the car when you shut the engine. I looked in the manual and didn't see. I also can't seem to find it on the dash. Did the remove it on the f30? |

Not sure yet about the F30 but I had an '07 X5 that did that automatically. No button, just a setting in the idrive to use it or not. So I'd check the vehicle settings menu.

Rest function was stripped from the E9X series sometime after 2008; it doesn't seem to show up on the F30 either.

I'm going to try the fan button after the car is off. I hope they didn't take that feature away. I found it so help when running out of the car real quick.
I check the menu settings and manual. Didn't see anything,but I'm going to try again. If I find, I'll post where I found it. Thanks! |

After driving the car, and turning it off, I tried to turn on the fan. I was hoping this would act as the rest button. Unfortunately it didn't.
I'm dropping my car off this week for an annoying squeak issue. I'll ask the service advisor about it then. Just thought I'd share. |

There's a timer feature so you can set it on/off under settings

but before, you had a nice warm engine, and before you ran into the store real quick, you hit the rest button and it keeps the car nice and toasty. That way you come back and your freezing again. I'll let investigate further and inform. |

Settings-->climate. --> activate parked car vent. It's greyed out when the car isn't off. But when you hit the start stop button to turn off the car, u can then select it. You can't store this in a preset, but you can store the climate selection In settings as a preset. This will bring you to the options and then you can quickly select the parked car vent. Thanks for your help fellas. |
