None of these things happen in my X5. It will even detect my bike rack and not automatically stop like my wife’s X7 does with iDrive 7. You can turn off all the speed warnings but no one is going to do it in a rental.

Not surprised the X2 sucks it’s the cheapest model and usually the Germans do not do well in this category. The cheap small Mercedes are similar.

The biggest annoyance is the horn beeps when I leave the car running and grab something from the trunk.

I believe some of it should be configurable, but I'm mystified that the default configuration should be so aggressively unempathatic to the driver. I did manage to turn off the thing where it covers the map with my forward camera view. But if Car Play worked, I wouldn't have bothered, and would have kept using Google Maps.
