jordyboy2 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2009 Just wondering, tonight while I was dropping a friend off in auckland, My E46 beeped twice and then little screen (where you switch through the OBC functions) flashed, + 3 Degrees Is this a programmable function left by a previous owner or a warning ? Cheers Jordan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jochen 4 Report post Posted June 17, 2009 It's the ice warning, standard feature Means the outside temp has dropped to +3C and thus there is danger of ice on the road Standard warning feature, cannot be disactivated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JaseNZ 53 Report post Posted June 18, 2009 Yup mine did this a week ago and was first time i had seen it. I also thought oh great what now but after a quick read of the manual it said it will show up and beep at 3deg if temp is dropping. Also at that point the heaters in the windshield washer nozzles and the heaters in the mirrors come on. All i can say is nice Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
