So, last year was my first with a BMW, then the cold weather hit. First time I got the "it's 37deg F outside" note, I wondered, what the ????

Actually spelled out in the owners manual (don't remember the exact page). Something about "freezing conditions could exist". OK, nice to know

Just recently got note again this morning, yes, I know it's 37 deg F outside

BUT - last time I checked water freezes at 32 deg F (or zero deg C for the rest of the world). I get it, want to give people warning, but..........

things like this gives us overly anal engineers pause to laugh

stupid observation I know, but I found it a bit amusing
