Question New M235i Owner

Hi All,
Friday purchased a 2016 M235i with what I thought was the 8.8” screen to find out today after knocking it and finding touch screen that it’s an android screen.

Question I have is :

1
  1. How to set the time as every time I set via the media unit it does not retain it and the click on the Speedo doesn’t change either.
  2. Next the MOT warning hasn’t been reset when it was done as there doesn’t seem to be anything under Service Requirements on past services.

Seems to be the android media unit is affecting the main system, also on the android system it shows kmh and also the car images setup for left hand drive, can these be change to config it correct for UK car?

Thanks

Dan

I had an android screen and the system clock was never able to be set. I was never able to figure it out. Only way it showed an accurate time on the screen was if I connected via carplay. The system clock on the gauge would still be blank though.

Thanks, really getting the feeling the android screen causes more issues than worth it, can’t even see the brake, fluid, oil etc under the service requirements either so something screwy going on.

Might just rip out the screen and Find a BMW 8.8” screen 🤦🏻
