If you have signed up for BMW Assist, you supposedly are able to use a cell phone app to send an instruction that the car start its interior fans. A few minutes after giving the command, the fans should start running, and keep on running for 20-30 minutes.
I didn't know it was available for the X1, though. My dealer never gave me the forms for signing up for the free BMW Assist, so I don't have it.
It's probably not a big loss, as I couldn't rely on it anyhow - half the places I regularly go have no cell phone coverage at all. (Most European countries, including those far less densely populated than the US, had close to 100% geographical coverage twenty years ago. Here, we're still not pushing 25%. It's embarrassing when people from Europe visit and their phones stop working as you drive. They're not used to that.)
