Did you know that just passing your finger . . .
In front of the radio preset buttons displays on the screen above which station that button is tuned too! Without having to actually press the button.
I discovered this a few nights ago by accident. Not a biggy, but a cool feature none the less.

You probably also know that you can program those button as shortcuts to many applications in iDrive. I have one of mine setup to go directly to the sport gauges.

You can preset the buttons (1-8) to do any tasks or select any screens, much like you'd preset a radio station.
Select the function you want to preset, all the way until you actually select it by clicking iDrive controller. Then push lightly on any button for a quick few seconds until a store option comes up on the screen. Then push preset button down further until action is stored. I use this a lot to dial frequent contacts on various numbers, show Sports display, display trip computer and show enter destination screen in Nav. |

Try it and you will see what I'm describing. Not that there are not other ways to see what the preset button is tuned too, I just happened to discover this by accident.

Your thread title sounds dirty. I was disappointed that it wasn't.
