Can't Figure Out An Icon
Hello New BMW owner here (2024 540i XDrive). Haven't driven it much because I just had surgery. Still learning about the car/console/dashboard, etc. etc. Been over the manual several times, and cannot find the answer. Could one of you kind people tell me what that little arrowhead I circled in red in my image is? It was never there before, and I must have inadvertently pressed something to make it appear. Could you let me know what it is, and how did I get it there? I could not find it in the manual or when I went to Google. Thanks so much for any help, Susan -

X Drive and Snow/Ice
My home is in eastern Texas, so we get very little icy/snow driving events compared to many of you. However, I have been driving 4 WD drive trucks for decades as my personal work truck in my construction business. Not for street needs, but there are occasions that a jobsite may be muddy, sandy, or just soft dirt. And at these times, especially if I am pulling a trailer with a ditching machine or scissor lift, 4 WD makes a large difference. And, when the occasional harsh winter comes along, with a few days of ice or snow covered roads, the trips to supermarkets or other errands are no problem. So that leads to my question here. I recently bought a 2025 M440 XDrive. AWD drive systems can be designed mainly for enhanced road handling on a track for instance, or more for low traction conditions. For any of you who may have a non SUV AWD BMW, and stock tires, how do they handle in snow or ice? In normal daily driving, is enough torque sent to the front wheels to be a real benefit over just rear wheel drive? I hope some here can share you experiences/thoughts. -
