Why i left mercedes

[dimka415]

hello, i just got a 2009 750i sport pkg, wow, what a power and handling!

i am new to this and mainly looking for ways to tweak my black beauty - anyone knows how to bypass the idrive so i can watch videos while driving?

[jimmythepie]

nope,so why did you leave mercedes?

[dimka415]

it's the unprecidented power and handling of the bimmer....

[jimmythepie]

oh right,not the prospect of watching tv whilst driving then?

[german-speed-demon]

you shouldn't be ale to bbypass the idrive. it was a safety feature installed purely to deter those who wanted to watch videos whilst driving. you know, the whole ''eyes on the screen, not on the road'' thing?

[AlpineSixAndSeven]

.... same thing with the e38 tv But many people have bypassed it... i donno about the newer 7's....

[jimmythepie]

if he wants to watch something there are a lot of after market bits out there that should do the trick.

[AlpineSixAndSeven]

^ but why go Aftermarket if you have a built in tv?

[jimmythepie]

on the move that is captain.

[AlpineSixAndSeven]

well if you can mod. the existing equiptment wouldn't be better?

[jimmythepie]

yes but i think that might prove problematic.a trip to the shops could net him the same results for less outlay and if he sells the car he can keep the equipment.hows the weather there captain?
