Context: I don't have the OE remote start function, so if I wanted to warm or cool the cabin before a drive I would go and start the car and go back into the house while I let it run.

Scenario: For obvious reasons I want to lock the doors while the car is "on" and unattended, which works perfectly fine, except for a loud horn honk that occurs at the moment of locking via key fob while walking away.

Question: does anyone know how to disable this horn honk that occurs when locking the car via key fob while engine is running?

Nb: this is not the OE alarm chirp, it's a full on horn honk!

You can code it off example with Bimmercode. I am pretty sure I saw that option there.

Correct…just went to the Bimmercodeapp website…and this coding feature is listed/supported for the G01 X3. The coding parameter is found in the BDC_Body2 control unit:

I thought that you can turn the heating / air con on from the BMW app on your phone, this is done without the need to go near the car?

Was it that Blow by Heater S4NE was only optional in US/NA?
And in Europe that came with all M40's?

Thanks!

I don't plan on coding anything else, I feel it's would be a waste to buy a dongle + coding license just for one change.

Anyone have success with coding requests at their dealership?
