Anyone managed to configure / code the rear lights as DRL's on a pre-LCI X3?
TIA |

Details are in this thread. My car didn't have the kafas camera, so the speed limit info used the sat nav data to display the speed limit. This meant, it was incorrect for recent changes or wouldn't pick up temporary speed limits, but mostly was good. The speed limit in most cases would change as you would go past the speed sign. It wasn't perfect, but certainly helped with the 20 and 30 mph roads with cameras in London. The unit took about 2 weeks to arrive from S Korea (July 2020) and took all of 10 minutes to install and code using bimmercode. Speed limit info retrofit |

On another note, my car had the Alpina dials from the dealer but BimmerCode said they were not active. Does this mean the dealer did this with their software and BimmerCode can’t see the change? Cheers |

is it possible to code the High Beam Assist to activate automatically instead of hitting always the button on the stalk?I ask because I did not see the option in the coding sections.

Anti Dazzle 2022 LCI
Had anyone coded the anti-Dazzle using bimmer code for 22? If so, what are the expert options needed in the BDC to do this? I have seen them for the X5/X6.
Thanks in advance |

I do occasionally get flashed by oncoming drivers but it is pretty rare. I've chalked it up to them just not seeing me switch to low beams more than getting blinded, but I could be wrong.

I can actually see this happen when driving in the x3 as well, if you pay attention to the light pattern and how it strikes the back of the car in front of you, you will notice light leaks all over the place and into their rear view mirrors. I can't comment on traffic approaching from the oncoming lane as I haven't yet tested this myself since timing is a bit tricky. As an aside, I have a 2018 M2 which exhibits the same issues. |

I also had https://codemybimmer.ca code the Anti-Dazzle for me on my 2021 X3, and don't have any issues or have had someone flash me either.

I had GFHB coded by kubax86 who is a respected and trusted forum member. Cannot tell you his process specifically. Presumably using esys. It is possible he did something wrong. It is also possible others think their GFHB are working as expected when they are in fact not. All I can do is share my findings.

It’s also worth noting that the US 2022 vehicles have a different type of headlight than in previous years. It’s a matrix LED setup as opposed to the adaptive swiveling lights. So, there other factors at play here.

According the the build it stated Decoding for no-dazzle high-beam assistance. I assume all the hardware should be there. I will reach out to the person mention in the thread above and confirm. I definitely don’t want to blind anyone.

I've not used Bimmercode before but plan on getting one...it looks like you can disable and/or reduce the persistence time of the seatbelt gong. Having not actually used it before, I can't tell from their site if this is a basic setting to requiring a more advanced coding effort. Can anyone confirm?

I'm about to buy the Bimmercode app. Could one of you "experienced" Bimmercoders answer this question: How do I determine what equipment my X3 has, so I'll know what I can or cannot code?
Every one of the Bimmercode coding options has a line or two that gives the "equipment requirements" in order to code that particular feature.....presumably, IF my car doesn't have a particular "equipment requirement" I can't code that feature. Here are just some examples of the required equipment: “Body Domain Controller” BDC_BODY2 control unit “Headunit” HU_NBT_EVO or “Headunit” HU_MGU control unit “Roof Function Center” FZD__35 control unit “Optional Extra System” SAS10 control unit “Air Conditioning” IHKA_PRO1 control unit “Engine Control Unit” DME control unit etc etc Thanks |
