when I was testing driving the demo X1 a couple of weeks ago, the salesman took me through some residential streets. a lot of people were blowing their leaves to the curb for pick up. As I drove past that, some of leaves were stuck to the grill.

when we were back at the dealership, I started to pull out some leaves that were halfway in. The grill shutter was closed and I couldn't get to some of the other leaves. Is there a switch or something to manually open the grill shutters to clear out leaves? (or possibly insects when driving in the summer)

Thanks1

If the shutters are closed, how are the leaves getting in behind the shutters? I had a '19 X3M40i a few years ago with the shutters. I don't think there's a way to get in behind...in fact I never saw the shutters open. I wouldn't worry too much about it

it was a very warm day when I test drove it a couple of weeks ago(almost 82... but the day before it was in the 40s) I assume that the shutters opened during the test drive? It was so hot that the AC was on full blast during the test drive... which reminds me... I really loved how I was able to say the temperature that I wanted(68 degrees) and the X1 just complied.
