Warning when exceeding speed limit ?

andymj · 02-07-2017, 06:49 AM

Anyone know if its possible to get the Speed Limit Display to also alert when you have exceeded the currently enforced speed limit - maybe by a predefined upper threshold ?

http://www.bavarianmw.com/guide-3227.html this page suggests that the X3 has the ability to warning relative to the current speed limit - but I'm not sure if the F31 / iDrive 5 can do this ?

All I can set is an arbitrary upper speed limit which is fixed irrelevant of the road.

That page just describes the standard function. You can set a single limit, either by entering it or using your current speed.

There's no way of linking it to the current speed limit.

Just set to 20mph and you should be covered across all roads

There's the speed limits on a HUD.
With your head up, looking at the road, you can see the speed signs.
