Radio Manual & Weatherband

flyga3 · 05-02-2007, 06:01 PM

I'm new to the board and I'm planning my purchase of an E92 335. I've searched for the BMW Professional Radio owners' manual and can't find it anywhere. What I need to know is:
1) Is Weather Band (WB) available through the stock radio (non-iDrive),
2) Any screen pics of the display (telephone mode, sirius, ipod, etc),
3) Anyone with a PDF of the radio manual??

Thanks in advance and the E92's look sick!

Marcus.

No weather. Maybe I'll take some pics tomorrow.

I've not been able to find this option in the entertainment area of iDrive. I took a look at my fathers' new 535xi over the weekend and he has the WB option next to SAT and CD in the iDrive menu. I'm thinking the 3-series doesn't have weatherband capability now...?

I do, but I don't have a scanner plus it's kind of long. We do NOT have weather band, just AM and FM.

Thanks for checking! Well that bites.

I'll be sending my 2-cents to BMWNA.

And just to confirm those with E92's and I-Drive, no WB even though the owners manual shows it?

I have WB on my current ride and never use it.

Who needs a weatherband anyway? I just slide back my moonroof and if i get wet, I know it's raining.

What's your ride now that has it?

OK, went to the dealer today. Messed around with the I-Drive and Non-idrive radio. Liked the pro radio setup. And yup, no WB on either.
A new 535 on the lot did though.
