17” tyre. Currently am still playing around with the 3 modes of driving.

Do let it settle and u would get a stabilize consumption after 2/3 tankful.

Quick question: Any if you faced an issue with the Nav system? Sometimes when am using it to go to a specific place (I know part of the way). So it either tried to take me on a completely different route, when am actually on the right one, and then just go completely off or state I’ve arrived and navigation just stops.

Not sure if it's routine base on nav setting. But normally if I know part of route. Will go on and nav will do a refresh. U maybe can play around setting to check if routine given changes?

I need to check since it works sometime and sometime it does not. Currently the rate of failure is higher.

Does the wiper need to be at 90 degree before lifting away from windscreen?

Only for the right wiper.

Thanks for clarification. Not the best design to lift wiper I guess

Some car models also hv to do the same way. Not only our ride [emoji51].

But yeah ... not the best design to do like that.

Nope, bought it at the Car Expo from PML. Tried the usual BMW map update, but sadly same issue is still going on.

Yeah, it’s a known issue and some others prefer other 3rd party GPS apps like Waze and Google Maps.
