Hey guys, so the infamous RDC failure just happened on my 2014 X3. I pulled the RDC module out, opened it up and it was full corrosion - same that everyone has reported and seen on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Vu7GTFcZjU

My module is part number 36106857938-02 (SW.02.0D.02). Of course it's been disco'd and replaced with 36106881433. The question I have is 36106881433 simply "plug and play" or will 36106881433 require coding? I would like to buy a new module vs. the used eBay route because I'm sure the eBay used one will have some sort of corrosion and eventually fail however I don't really want to deal with coding

Thoughts?
