Change HUD to M-Mode without using M-Mode button?
I've had my G80 for about a month now and have yet to figure out a way to change the HUD to always display the rev counter, in other words what was previously the M display in the F80.
The only way I seem to be able to do this is to use the M-Mode button in the console which also changes all the other settings to M-Mode. Is there no way to always have the HUD in M display?

Try going to car, settings, display, heads-up display, then configure view and change to sport.

From what I've seen, this just lets you configure what it looks like in Sport but not actually change the active mode to Sport. Still only switches to sport when I use M-Mode button.

I was going to ask the same question submitted by the OP. I’ve spoken to 2 BMW genius’s and they don’t have an answer. On page 168 of the OM it addresses the shift point indicator and tach in the HUD view but it does not give instruction how to set that up. When in the “Configure View” page and selecting SPORT the side ways “hockey stick” tach is shown in the right hand split display on the Control Panel. I assumed that is what I would see in the HUD but it does not appear. What is shown is the straight horizontal bar tach. IMO the OM is not written very well.

I am still under the impression that you have to press “m mode” by the gear shift to trigger the rev limiter on HUS. |

I'm at an about 800 miles on break in started looking at the configurations. To clarify the M mode doesn't change any performance setting but the view of the analog display/HUD. If traction setting is on MDM or DSC OFF, you must press M button twice. Am I missing any other rabbit holes? Haha |

If you want the tach smaller in HUD, you could try the reduced height setting.

It will be fine, AMG had several views and adjustments I'm surprised BMW didn't follow. Can I ask for your spirited drive configurations? MDM mode? |

I feel like something isn’t right. The M Mode Road Config is greyed out in my settings

Like you guys very annoyed I can’t just have the M mode display as my default view on the cluster and heads up as it’s such an improvement over the standard one.
iDrive 8 for me personally is a bit of a disaster. |

This is annoying but it's not an ID8 issue. ID7 is the same.

This has been a ridiculous design decision since ID7, despite all of the negative feedback BMW have still carried the M mode decision over to ID8.
A sports car should have (the option) to feature the Tach in the head up. Simple as that.. AND why we can't have the option to have the "M" screen in the binnacle when pressing the M1 or M2 is also incredible illogical. You can code your way around it in ID7, I did it in my G42 but that was ID7. Havent tried in ID8 in my G87 (yet). |

How did you code it in your G42? Do you have the settings you changed?
