Does anyone know how to switch the camera view to the front camera whilst in reverse?
I can only seem to do this buy shifting to N or D. Grrrr......... :x :x

Touch the screen on the camera graphic you want to view on the top down view.

When the top down 360 view is displayed look carefully at the screen ( when you’re stopped safely) and you will see camera icons around the image of the car onscreen .Tap on whatever camera icon you want to see the different angles like maybe the kerb view . Could be easier to see the icons for sure. Handy when reversing close to awkward kerbs.

consider calling a BMW genius at your dealer to talk you through the cameras system to get best out of it. Sorry not in a position to take photos or ideally video right now.

Thank you Pwood.
I think I get what you are saying but when in R for example the front camera icon is gone and when in D the rear icon disappears.
I will take pics when I get the car back but it is cactus at the minute and I am in a loan vehicle.
