With a 2016 BMW X3, I was curious about setting the radio to tune into custom frequencies, specifically NOAA Weather Radio. I want to know if that's even possible, if you could add the option in the source menu, and if you could program a dashboard alarm when a weather alert is received

Can you program or code a 530e to not shut off the car automatically when getting out?

Hi ! I have a BMW 116D 2016 with Entrynav NBT Evo id4 Headunit (no navigation) and can show album cover when playing Spotify /tidal via USB from IPhone,
But the album art does not show via Bluetooth?!
Is that something that SHOULD work and can be fixed somehow?

Sorry to be a hater but why are we looking at the presenter and not the screen. Sorry but I do not need to see the presenter's face, I need to see the screen as he navigates the menu of choices.
