I have a software enhancement suggestion in regards to the on-board owner's manual.

A quick help function for any button/knob: Press and hold the MENU key on the iDrive controller for longer than 5 seconds. This will pop up a quick help instruction menu on the iDrive screen prompting the user to press or turn any key or knob. Doing so will bring up the corresponding explanation/function description of the button/knob without actually activating the particular function!

Basically it is a shortcut to the function description already in the car without having to look through the owner's manual index or do a search on the specific function.

Excellent idea!
