I'm guessing this is due to the number of notifications... I've never had more than maybe a dozen, and that was from when I first took delivery and had to dismiss all of the gesture suggestions (and since subsequently turned those off).

You should be able to get to the notifications screen through the car menu on iDrive without using the pop-up/shortcut. From here, I think you should be able to dismiss all of old the missed call/text notifications (utilizing the option button?), and then just deal with the new ones moving forward which should be much more manageable.

I only get notifications of missed calls or texts that happen when I'm within range of the car... so I am a bit intrigued by the number of missed calls pulling from your phone notifications. I'm wondering if it's either happening because you stay within bluetooth range while the car is unlocked (and iDrive on) while you're at home, or if there's something else going on there.
