Is it possible to reach the temperature control with the iDrive controller/knob? Does tilting down take you to the temperature setting? Is there any temperature setting in the main climate menu?

Just tried this and tilting down does not take you to temperature settings or do anything.
So easy to change on screen anyhow so would probably take you longer using idrive controller via climate menu. Voice activation works great to change temp also. Used voice also to turn a/c off and on which saves going into menu.

Hi @Eclipxe
Is there any specific reason you're trying to manage the temperature through the knob/controller?

I adjust the temperature quite a bit and in my seating position it is not easy to reach the screen. I like to just do everything via the iDrive controller. I also don’t like interrupting my music by using voice controls.

My seat position, is also too far back to easily reach the touch screen. You CAN change the climate settings with the iDrive controls, but it is even more involved than using the touch screen. I'm not positive, but I believe the BMW assistant is capable of making the changes for you, while you keep hands on the wheel.
