I have a 2024 X1 28i with Premium Package & ID9. I consider myself fairly technical in nature but there are 2 things I’m puzzled about. After having it since late December for the life of me, I can’t figure out:
1- how to manually select which vents I want air to come out of. I see the fan air speed can be manually but not the location I want them to come from. 2- Also, in all my other vehicles in automatic mode the air flow starts out at a higher speed than automatically adjusts down to a slower rate (less noisy) as the interior temperature gets closer to temperature you set it to. I don’t believe mine is doing that in auto mode. It seams to only stay in the fan speed I set it to all the time. It’s my first BMW, so is this how BMW designs their vehicles? Is there some hidden setting somewhere to accomplish what I want to do? |

I had the same thing recently on my X1 2024 - it's not obvious! Go to the main screen and press the turbine/fan symbol - then on my car you press the part of the car you want the fan on the screen - I had to get my passenger to find it as I could not see it when driving.

Do you have any insight about automatic air flow speed & if it’s supposed to alter its speed while in HVAC automatic mode? |

Thanks for the reply. Using your advise I further tested a few senecios & was able to adjust where the flow of air was directed while NOT IN AUTO MODE. Not at all obvious to say the least & I don’t recall seeing any notes in the on-line guide. Perhaps it was mentioned & I missed it or BMW believes we can all read the minds of the programmers. 🤪
