Anyone else feel the steering wheel needs to go lower?
I have seen this on all f85s, the steering wheel adjustment, when in its lowest position, isn’t low enough. My F10 M5 goes way lower. Is there a solution? Right now it’s too high and strange feeling. Thanks

I dont think the wheel goes high enough. With the seat bottomed out and the wheel in its highest position it still blocks a small portion of the top of the gauge cluster.

Raise your seat. You probably have 20-22 way seats...the bottom seat cushion probably tilts up/down in the front, tilts up/down in the back...and can be raised/upward or lowered/downward.

This is always a tricky subject due to the differences in body types. People can carry their "length" differently which can affect seating comfort. One can have a longer torso and average or short legs which means they have to work with not hitting the headliner when moving the seat upward/downward...whereas some have longer legs and an average or short torso where their issue is fore & aft distances and adjustment of the driver's seat. Then some have long legs and a long torso...their struggle is obvious in regard to this situation.

I definitely think it’s too high in its lowest position. People say raise the seat but I’m 193cm and already almost touching the roof, raising the seat isn’t an option. When I’ve driven the x7 I noticed the steering wheel goes much lower and it’s more comfortable (seat also all the way down).
