Do the front/rear blinkers flash with lock/unlock from FOB?

Silly question I know, but I don't have access to my car right now. 1M with premium package 2. Thx!

By default, yes (car also beeps once or twice depending on unlock/lock) but you can turn off both options in the iDrive menu.

Yes and no.

You can have it set either way!

^^Yes and No. Yup!

It depends on how you have the BC or iDrive configured and also wether or not you have the headlight switch set to the "Auto" setting or not.

Oh yeah...that's right. As a result of some coding, the user configuration parameters accessible by the stalk were reset. Two of those had to do with the blinkers: one for lock the other for unlock.

Update: got home and reset using the BC button and wheel. Everything works as originally set up.

Thanks BrokenVert!
