M Mode

XX5Monster · 11-28-2015, 11:49 AM

Hey guys, this is my first M so I was wondering if anybody could explain what each mode does in M and when its best to use?

Thanks

Go into the settings on the iDrive and you can define what the M button does. It basically is a quick switch button to a set of defined options that you define in the menu. They include MDM (less intrusive traction control) and more power from the engine.

I appreciate your feedback but I know how to switch it. I just want to know more about what the different settings actually do.

Thanks

Hey bro, see the attached link... pages 18-26 explain it all... I select all the settings for the sportiest and most aggressive driving.

Also the M button is best used every time to start the beast. Non M mode really is for your wife when she is driving.

Difference between Sport-Mode and the M-Mode ?
