For the music, if you change what is in your center screen away from the Audio display that thumbpad will no longer change music tracks
Are you calling me…..Oh forget it!

Put your hand at 12 o’clock at the top of the horn. Then you might see it. I have long fingers. But I think it’s my hand that touches it.

I often have media displayed so I don’t want to change display.

Im just happy that this is a ME problem not an electrical one.

I see you can turn the middle touchpad off in settings. I see nothing for the steering wheel.

Word has it they make BMWs for stupid people.

I tried that, my fingers don't come anywhere close to the buttons even if I splay my fingers out and try and reach them, and I wear XL gloves. I think you just need to adjust the way you interact with the steering wheel

I find the center console touchpad much worse when wearing gloves- it causes all sorts of issues...

None of these hand positions are natural:
