4. Couldn't find online manual for 2015 F33.
Based on the picture,your car does not have neck warmers. You have adjustable head rests. Seats with neck warmers,the head rests are not adjustable.

Just have the key in your pocket, press brake and hit start button. A lot of older BMWs do not have remote start.
A lot of newer BMWs do not have remote start. I don’t.

How can I find out if I have residual heat recirculation and launch control?

There is a button marked REST if you have it? I know my '06 had it, my '09 did not. My '18 does not.

For launch control, warm car up (drive around 7 miles), pull into an empty lot, throw it in sport plus, shift lever to left then hold brake and gas and it should say launch control if it activates.

sit in your car and go through the manual or youtube. It's faster than waiting for a response here.

This is what 70% looks like on the front


This is a good looking car....the hard top convertible is a really interesting platform and caused me to buy one before they go to soft top. Every time I see this colour I tell myself...should have bought EB. WRT tint...Chowser car looks amazing but it is dark so you have to like that. I did 35 percent and find it the perfect balance of safety (visibility) privacy and style. I wouldn't do the windscreen.
We test drove a car that was tinted pretty dark on the sides and rear. It made the car seem smaller, almost claustrophobic.

I searched in the manual but couldn't find it - how to create a new idrive profile? I erased all the data from the previous owner. I have an appointment to tint the windows this Sunday and will post pictures after!
