To get move exhaust noise while not in sport+. Select comfort then press the traction button. This opens the exhaust but leaves it in comfort

According to babybmw forum this puts the car into a seperate mode called traction. It may share some settings with comfort but it's a mode unto itself.

Doesnt have to be comfort. Traction button in any mode does the same.

Yes this works in the same way. Another point to note you need to be out of the car, lock it and move the key away. It seems to be smart enough to recognise the key when you turn ignition off and continue to provide power to the outlets! Once off, locked and you are away it stops the live power approx 3 minutes after.

In the 3 series all the sockets (front, rear, footwell and boot) are powered for 5 mins after locking. I would assume the 1 series is the same. Curiously, they're not all off the same fuse, 2 from the fuse box in the boot and 2 from the one in the engine bay. Don't recall which way round though, only found out when some of mine weren't working but others were. Hope this help a little.

When you click into your phone with bluetooth the screen will show you which song you are playing, and then there is two big buttons saying "repeat" or "skip" (I don't know what it says in English since I am not a English speaker. You don't have to take your eyes off the road since the screen sits pretty high up.
