New E55 owner. A couple of questions.

Love the car so far, but some things I'm curious about;

1) There's no light in the tach to tell me my headlights are on. Is this normal? My e500 and e320 both have a green headlight symbol whenever the lights are on.

2) The ventilated seats on the e55 go from high to medium to low all by themselves. Is this normal? The E500 stays where I set it.

3) I have the humongous SAT Antenna on the trunk. is there a smaller antenna I could use in it's place?

4) The E55 is a BEAST! Is this normal?

Thanks

Make sure your intercooler pump is working. IF you do a few blasts and the car becomes an 1979 Buick, your pump is probably not working and the ECU is taking away your supercharger. You'll know it for sure.

I wonder if this is an 2005 and newer feature or maybe I have a bulb out.

My car is silent when I lock the doors. How do I get it to beep when I lock/unlock?
