hello and I hope this is in the right place

I recently got a 320 2.2 coupe 53 reg auto and after driving it for a few days have noticed that when I dip the accelerator the revs seem to climb high without any real push behind them it seems to go through the gears without searching but no real boost ive never driven one of these cars before and am comparing to a 180k auto box should it be very responsive to the pedal?or is this normal as ive got a 3months warranty with it I want to sort this out asap many thanks jon

Got any techie friends, Jonathan? Sounds a little strange, but not really something we can advise on from a distance, so to speak. I suppose if you just go back, the seller will say, "no, thats absolutely fine, just as it should be", so I think if I was you I'd just pop into my local garage and get a mechanic to drive round the block with you for a straightforward honest opinion. Then if theres a problem evident, go back with confidence to the seller.

      Folding mirrors

      Morning Damion I would say yes to the software update (but a Dealer will charge £££) this should be in iDrive try My Vehicle, Vehicle Settings, Doors/Key, then scroll down to mirrors and check Fold Mirrors when Locked If that doesn't work you need help from someone with a BMW capable diagnostic package (ISTA/INPA) to check if it is in a hidden menu. Be aware BMW are making it harder and harder to tinker with the cars mainly after 2019 year so you should be OK Dave

      Centre console iPhone charger

      Morning Rob His was in the car when he brought it and is OEM (car is BMW 330e 2019) apparently works well with his iPhone but not with our daughters Android phone. You could talk to your Dealer but make sure your wallet is in a protected spot 😁 as I have know idea of cost ££££. If BMW are fitting them then there will be Retro fit kits out there from the Far east so worth looking at the Auction sites but I have no knowledge of quality other than the screen in the X5 failed and I replaced it with a complete Android unit from Ebay at less than a 1/3rd of the BMW quote. Truly plug and play allows switching between the OEM CiC and Android gives better GPS and many other programs and has been totally reliable for the last 3 years (that's killed it ) Me I don't spend long enough in the car for my phone to need charging these days 😅 While the X5 has Android Auto and Carplay I have to say like a lot of gadgets they are rarely used. Bluetooth is the only thing I see as an essential Good Luck with the search for a solution Dave

      Folding mirrors

      My X6M has folding mirrors, operated from the normal button, situated on the drivers door arm rest. They don’t fold in when I set the alarm, having read the manual, there’s a setting in the idrive to activate this function but when I scroll down the menu, this option isn’t there. Can the software be updated to add this feature, surely if the button is there and the mirrors are folding ones there must be a solution, or am I missing something completely Thanks in advance
