Steve asked the question and I thought I could scan the service sheet for my car as an answer and post it, but that has proved hard to do, so here are the functions that can be set on the dealers service diagnostic machine.
1. Anti theft system.
Set by door lock or
set by remote control
2. Visual arm / disarm. on/off
3. Power locks.
Remote control of interior lights on/off.
Autolock after 2 min on/off
Autolock on drive away (5mph) on/off
Selective door locks ie: one press opens drivers door only double press opens all doors and boot (trunk)
4. Window and roof controls.
One touch is selectable for each door and the roof independently; open and/orclosed. (think about this before asking questions)
Total closer from remote on/off
total or partial opener from remote on/off
5. interior light soft on or off on/off.
6.External lights.
DRL on/off
Home lights on/off/40s/90s/150s/240s
7.Accoustic warnings key on/off
8. Heating A/C and vent settings key seletive on/off by key 1/2.
9.Flaps recirc. air memory on/off
10.A/C Cooling output high/low
11. Seat/mirror memory when unlocking/when opening door on/off
12. PDC volume 1-6 and switch on message on/off.

There you are that little lot should drive all your dealers mad when you hit them on Monday morning with your custom settings.
What SHOULD happen, is you should be given a print out of the factory defaults (which is everything off) when you take delivery of yourcar, then you tick the features you want set and the dealer will set them up while you sign up the rest of the paperwork.
Straw poll: HOW MANY OF YOU HAD THIS DONE.
Count me as a YES.

NOW WILL SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO GET MY TV ON THE MOVE?

I was wondering what I could do with the key, and I don't think my dealer has gotten enough BMW's to be extremely knowledgeable on the M5 systems considering the mystery of the ordering process. Now I can have them set up my keys the way I want them before I drive it off the lot next week!

Thanks Brian!

Brian,

My dealer called me several days before I went to pick my car up and went through the key setting options with me over the phone, so it was already done the day I arrived.

 

[dave]

never did it. Anything worth going back to the dealer for?

 

[brparker]

Mine never did it. I will have to call them and have it set at the 1200 mile service. Can't wait.

Dave,

Not that I expect or will encourage her to drive it much, but one of the two master keys belongs in theory to my wife, so she can preserve her own seat and mirror settings on her key code. Daytime running lights are handy as is the auto lock feature. Much of it's a matter of personal taste.
