I disagreed with that statement completely. The writer claims that you have to "scroll through menus to access the fan speed", on Navi cars. That's not true at all. You simply have to push the "A/C" button and the A/C screen pops right up. No scrolling necessary.

Why does everyone always complain about that? I think it's pretty simple and easy......

A similar comment can be made about the 1st gear complaint. People keep forgetting that one can lock the tranny in 1st (last option on the "zig zag pattern"). So there are really 3 ways to change gears with the auto tranny on the CLS. People keep thinking and keep using only 2 of them.

Tom, did you sell the M3? What is this "new car coming soon" comment on your signature?

hmm the airbag problem I hope they're not refering to the passenger side airbag sensor going on and off... Also i think the fan controls are PIMP as shit, touch screen. touch A/C and then fan speed. wahts so confusing... : confused:
