Parked Car Ventilation question...

[argento]

My 2013 X5M doesn't allow the function below, but I strongly recall that in my previous X5's ('07 4.8 and '13 3.5) I could do the following:

Access Parked Car Ventilation from the BMW App on my iphone and turn this feature ON. However I no longer see that function on the App. I assume that when the combox support went away, they took this away too? However, on the X5M, I have the latest updated combox and the subscription.

Am I recalling incorrectly??

I also thought I could activate ON both Timers for separate times, but I think that was on my F10...not sure


Thanks.

I was wondering about doing this via the iDrive menu items.. My timers for the on/off are both greyed out, not able to set them. I can't see how to set the vehicle to do this ventilation.
I need to monkey around with it more, I didn't have too much time to play with it to see if I could activate this.

Given the poor battery performance, I have never used this feature for fear of the battery running low and lock me out.

I use it often and have never noticed any adverse issues with battery. I found it's easiest to set using the voice menu, starting with "Parked car operation".
