Is there no way to quickly turn off AC?
Team,
I usually don't run AC unless I need to but I noticed toggling AC on/off is very tedious in G29 Z4s for me. Only way seems to go in to ventilation menu from idrive interface and check-off the AC. All cars I owned usually have an AC on/off toggle button, maybe I'm missing something. |

I think the OP is asking how to turn off A/C and leave air flow on thru vents. Only way I’ve found to do this is going into ventilation menu and checking it to off.

Thank you, this is exactly what I'm looking for. It is mind boggling that there is no dedicated button for this.

I just push the fan down button for 1 to 2 times until the AC off & open the windows

I don't seem to have an "A/C" button . I have "Max A/C" and "MENU A/C". I can't seem to toggle AC with these buttons unless I go through the "Menu A/C" and uncheck "A/C" from idrive. Again, I would like to keep the ventilation on but just turn off A/C when not needed.

It sucks that they put it in M4 and not in Z4. A/C usually has an impact on performance and MPG, it sucks that there is no way to turn it off quickly when you don't need it.

this has been driving me crazy too and only solution i have found is to say "air conditioning off"! I was thinking there had to be an easier way and meant to do some further exploration but this thread clarifies it all!
