Another tip for those with cars around this age is using BMW Labs and IFTTT. It is annoying to setup but once done it is brilliant and allows way more features that might be useful.
SMS display on the smaller half of the idrive split screen pops up alone for specific time periods.
It also allows lights to be turned on using specifics systems (like Phillips wifi bulbs), other things are mileage in spreadsheet, parking and if you have a sat nav destination in place will text someone when you have 10 minutes left to go to your destination.
I still do not understand why BMW stopped BMW labs so early on. Probably because the integration to get it working is a pig. But, once done it is really good.
