With full screen CarPlay, you have the only real big missing feature in iDrive 6 IMHO. Some other options via coding that I liked were:

1. Customizing the door and mirror locking
2. Moving front seats back when opening the door and other seat functions
3. Customizing the tailgate open/close
4. Customizing camera
5. Turn on B&O surround sound (better if you upgrade the woofers to B&O from HK and upgrade the center to Focal's since the B&O ones can be more complicated)
6. Turning off warnings and the auto start/stop and such,

Non coding stuff like using the favorites or quick launch buttons wisely. Since I use CarPlay extensively, I used the buttons to launch CarPlay apps and also for displays and settings

To me, all this adds a lot to the experience of the car.
