BMW remote app no ventilation?

daddymalu · 10-05-2015, 09:30 PM

Is it me or did the bmw remote app take away the ventilation feature?

It's just called 'Climate' and 'Start Time', at the top of the 'Remote' screen.

If only you could start the A/C in the summer and heater in the winter!!!

Unfortunately that would entail turning the car on remotely, which BMW has no interest in doing.

exactly, ventilation doesn't do jack, and installing remote start on these cars is nearly impossible.

I beg to differ. It is quite effective in coating the entire inside of your windows with fine mist when you turn it on during a hot day and did not check to see if it had rained.

Imagine that scene from Titanic but without the sex.

While it does not help the m6 the i8's will heat and cool remotely because of the large battery. Down side of remote start for gas engines in a cold zone is oil takes too long to heat up hence pre-mature engine wear.
