That means your car's politics have shifted too far to the left. Schedule an appointment with the dealer to have it recentered.

Damn that cursed left shift!!

Why are BMW owners all the exact fucking same worldwide?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's because BMW doesn't top up the indicator fluid as standard during service.

If you pay extra for the service, they will disable the lights for you.

This is the way!

lol I came upon a BMW that clearly had just missed his turn (he slowed down, realized it was too late to make the turn, then sped up again), then turned on his turn signal to pull into someone's driveway to turn around.

I said to my wife, "This BMW driver is so lost, they're using their turn signal!"

"nevermind, it's fine, it turned off by itself when I made a right-hand turn"

Drain your blinker fluid

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice 10 points 1 month ago

That's NASCAR mode. You hit the gas and just keep going left.

But if you don't signal, how will the commoners know to make way?

The blinkers should just engage the headlights blinking in a BMW.

[–] victorz 1 points 1 month ago

I thought that's how BMWs already worked.

[–] Randelung 9 points 1 month ago

Don't worry, it'll be fine in 0.5s.

Oh no, it's back!

Never mind, it's fine.

Wait no!

Hmmm. I think it means somethings wrong with your speedometer. I mean it's pointing directly at it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think it means your speedometer is displaying double your actual speed. So you can go at a speed that the speedometer says is twice the speed limit, and you'll actually be going at the speed limit.

Hope that helps 👍

[–] Chaos0f7ife 2 points 1 month ago

I followed your advice, now I'm sitting in jail. What did I do wrong?

[–] locahosr443 2 points 1 month ago

It's pointing at 100 which is the minimum speed the car expects to be doing.

Really it's just a gentle reminder if you're not driving it right

[–] normalexit 5 points 1 month ago

In my experience an unexpected light on your dashboard is about $1000 minimum at the dealership. I fear for the owner.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Take it to a service center immediately. Thats not normal. Your car is at risk of becoming a different car

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That arrow means you meed to accelerate to 100km/h

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

How, if you are already going over that speed constantly?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Do you also hear a ticking sound? If so, the car just entered a SUICIDE BOMBING MODE. It's on a timer to let you escape; follow the arrow for the nearest exit.

[–] QaspR 1 points 1 month ago

Shit man, you gotta get that checked out. This is the "honk at me" feature. It means your car has detected that you're an idiot and everyone will start honking at you and passing you on the right.

In the full image, there's visible cobwebs on the blinker switch.

Pray tell for what reason are you asking OP this?

[–] Sam_Bass 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Because older people tend to flip it on and leave it on with no intention to change lanes or turn anywhere
