Hi, I am new to this site. I followed some threads for awhile, decided it was a good forum, and I registered. I have a comment/question on the gauges on the 2004 525i, which I just purchased with only 7,000 miles on it.
It seems strange to me that a performance sedan does not have a temp gauge or an oil pressure gauge. It would be a great feature if it could be dialed up on the idrive via a software update.
Any comments on this?

Yes it would be a great feature. We had the temp gauge on the last 5-series (the E39), but now it has disappeared. The only thing you get is a warning light if you get too hot, and the "countdown" LED's on the tach to let you know how high you can rev based on how warmed-up the engine is.

645/545i had a temp guage. I guess those of us with smaller engines just get the iDrive warning. Oh well!

Yes, the 645/650 have temp gauges.
I would think any bimmer would have them. NOt sure what the folks in engineering are thinking sometimes.
