Bizarre question... I've noticed the heater controls in my Rocco look different to some I have seen on line ... Anyone know why?

You can just make them out ...

They are the same as mine mate. Don't know the ins and outs of spec options so can't offer any insight though.

Looks like I have the new white MFD, steering wheel, etc. but with the old heater controls if I'm not mistaken?

But in all honesty I think I prefer them to the new ones! :D

TBH the interior is my favorite part of the car. I was just curious as to why the dial were different... It has dual climate / auto controls.

I agree the interior is superb. I looked at a number of bmw 3 series before I bought mine and thought the rocs were so much better.

One thing that annoys me and may annoy you given your username is the power button on the stereo spinning when you adjust volume. Means that most of the time it doesn't look right!! End up setting it and then using steering wheel controls to get the volume.

Great minds ... I won't let anyone touch the power button and use the steering controls only for that exact reason!!! :D

Haha! Knew it wasn't just me. Don't get me started on the dsg manual changes being the wrong way round.

You can change the controls, did it on my car.
You need to change 2 wire positions and a different dashboard trim.
And a little vcds coding/basic settings.
