So... after being fully charged now the second time according to the ctek charger, I get in (closed the hood, parking brakes on, lights off, all windows and doors fully shut and in a level garage (736 ft above sea level
), nothing has changed.
I rebooted iDrive both with 30 sec volume hold and 70 sec volume hold, started the engine, stopped the engine repeated these steps.
Nothing seems to work. One additional thing I will try is park outside the garage, although the one time I've seen it pop up, I was in the garage.
