New owner. Couple of questions. To start.

No matter what I shut the car off in, it always starts in comfort mode. Why?

Do I have to turn on lane keeping assist every time I start the car? (Because I do)

How do I tell my cameras I want the 3D view. I have found it before and was pinching and spinning the car around but forgot how to get there.

Its the same in every BMW these days and my guess is that it is related to emissions.

Yes I can confirm this option is always like that.

I had Maserati and every time I turned the engine I had to agree with safety then I was able to see the screen and content, that is annoying...

How do I tell my cameras I want the 3D view. I have found it before and was pinching and spinning the car around but forgot how to get there.

No, it can be hard coded out. mine is coded to start in sport plus with auto start stop set to OFF, everytime.

also, I think lane assisted can be coded either in idrive or hard coded.

Cameras is a setting in idrive, but that too can be soft coded out. but I'd call the bmw genius first to see if they can fix it.

You need to get someone to code it for you. rg33 on here does, and a couple others. I'd reach out to r33 I think he's in California.

Pull over the menu from the left when you hit the (P)arking button, you'll have parking (default), 3D view, and carwash mode.
