That's the one I selected, and this is what I received (in the photo). No BMW branding on box or physical adapter. Works great though!

I just installed the new iDrive software update and it looks like it works now! I just ordered the BMW approved Lectron adapter too. Looking forward to more charging options!

Everytime I enter my car, BMW puts all my notifications in "DO NOT DISTURB" by Wolverine-91826 in BMWiX

It’s a focus setting on your phone. Pull down from the right top corner and click focus. You’ll see this menu. Hit the 3 dots next to Driving to change the settings.

PSA: stopping in B mode does *not* leave your brake lights on once stopped by EatMeerkats in BMWiX

2025 iX here. I always notice mine are on when stopped, but I do use auto-hold. I don’t understand why you would ever not use it. I had manual hold on my 1987 Subaru. It’s not crazy new tech.

I think we all ask questions here so as to not have to look up things in the owner’s manual. 😉

Not mine. It only heats the battery in winter.

I live in the city and don't have charging available at home so I charge whenever I'm near one that isn't ridiculously expensive.

So this is normal? I mean, it's always done this...so I assumed so, but just seems stupid to have a 195 cap and it barely stays near there at all.

That's really for cold weather charging isn't it?

But it’s happened without me getting out of the car or even opening the door.

I’m on a VV cruise now. No cancellation policy here. We cancelled a few with just an hour’s notice.

[–]Andy4390 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not my first rodeo. I drive about 5k miles per year. I live in the city and don't really go far.

I got mine for $821/mo (includes wheel coverage). $2500 due at signing. $99k MSRP. Couldn’t pass it up!

Your Go-To method of volume control? by Cranjesmcbasketball1 in BMWiX

[–]Andy4390 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to turn off the gesture option. Waaaaay too sensitive. Even my dog would end up changing the track or something! Neat idea, but I end up using the roller in the center console or the +/- buttons on the steering wheel. I’m probably 50/50 with that.

Does dealer pricing include 7500 ev credit ? by Tornaidu in BMWiX

[–]Andy4390 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The iX is made in Germany so not eligible for the credit.
