Do you know exactly which build date and forward received the revised hardware?

Can we can safely assume that 07/20+ build dates all have the newer hardware? (F95 as well?)

While that feature may correlate with new hardware, note that it is software-codable as I have done on my 2018 build G05 (with updated i-Level) and definitely not dependent on any physical hardware from MY20/21.

In general, you can't assume any such thing with what seems to be the new normal at BMW (and probably other manufacturers following Tesla's lead): non-fully backwards compatible hardware, software, and features are now continuously evolving without keeping to either model generation or even model year boundaries. For example, I think there is some indication that Aug 2020 or later builds are needed for full upcoming Digital Key functionality.

They are ventilated seats, not cooled. While both coming on together seems to be a bug some folks purposely put them on at the same time as it heats up the seats more quickly due to the warm air being circulated.

Which seems to imply that if you had Seat Climate Control on previously, it'll come on the next time? i.e., it's not climate rules, but function memory that turns it one - though I could be misinterpreting that line ... |

My theory is that first the ventilation is turned on due to it being warmer in the garage and as the temperature goes down while driving the seat heater is activated by that rule and the action by the previous rule is not cancelled. It does not happen all of the time though as far as I have seen but have not paid attention to it. |

OP hasn't posted since July so I'm asking all here if they know why this occurs. Thanks

thanks I've discovered its normal and works/illuminates as a proximity sensor when the key is in range and turns off after locking a few minutes later.
