strange problem with i-drive settings after "system check" service

So yesterday I got my m3 serviced for the "system check" service (im almost at 30k miles) and today I noticed that all my i-drive settings were reset, and so I set them all back up to what I had before, but the two things that are strange now are....the I-drive display brightness setting always defaults to 50% brightness after I set it back to 100% everytime after I turn the car off....also I notice that only some of the time can i find the SET instrument panel brightness setting using the control stalk......my friend told me this may be because my battery in my remote is almost dead (I have comfort Access)...but seems like too much of a coincidence that its happening right after getting their system check service which they apparently hook a cable to the OBD to check for fault codes....

Are you using the same key fob? Each fob stores separate settings unless you purposely set them up the same.

Well the set instrument panel setting I figured out is only visible when the headlights are on...not just the angel eyes, as for the idrive screen brightness going back to 50% every time I turn the car on....no damn clue
