Another Discovered Feature

Discovered this by accident today. When your hazards (flashers) are on and you use your turn indicator, the car will shut down the hazards and turn on just the chosen turn signal. When you turn the indicator off, the hazards go back on.

I think that's pretty obvious and happens to all BMW?
enjoy!

I discovered something today too although not as cool. Everyone knows that if you move the wiper stalk downward then the wipers will turn on for 1 wipe, but if you hold it down the wipers will just keep going. Didn't know that til today. Lol!

I too discovered something.
You know when you approach the Redline, the indicators on HUD turn on?
at 6700 RPM the block of yellow indicators start turning on (5 blocks) and then the red ones. Now if you approach the redline firmly (not hard acceleration) you can fool the ECU and you just see them flashing when you reach 7200 RPM. No indicators between 6700-7200.
Dave can you check it out and let me know if this is happening to M5 too or is just for M6 or my car has some issues I'm not aware???
