Voice Control/Tech Package?
Is voice control not available on non-tech package cars? I have the voice button on my wheel but nothing happens when I press it. I also cannot find anything related to voice commands in the iDrive settings. Is this expected, or am I missing something?

I probably wouldn't have used it anyway ... but it bothers me that the button is there and doesn't work. It would have been great if it was programmable to something else, like the Sport+ mode

FYI the default BMW voice recognition is unbelievably BAD!! It take several attempts speaking in your most studious voice to get a half decent result.
Most of the time, it will confirm phrases not even close to what you've actually said. SMH

Yeah - BMW Voice Sucks Big Time
I like the voice button on the BMW steering wheel now since it accesses Google voice. Really annoying to see it as an up level option.
Yet another reason why I bought a stripper.
