Is there a third part to getting 5 blinks to work?
I've coded BDC Body to 'fuenfachblinken' (Werte=02) and HU NBT to 'fuenfachblinken' yet I can't select 5 blinks in I-Drive.
Am I missing something?

Does anyone know if Bimmercode allows you to turn off the alarm for the OBD port? I've got a Valentine1 w/ Savvy, but have to unplug it everytime I get out before locking, otherwise it sets off the alarm.

info

Does anyone know if the app allows you to make any changes to the ambiance lighting? For example to do it aftermarket but have the interface shown as OEM.

That would take software editing and not just coding changes if you wanted to display different colors in IDrive.

Just tried again, and I can get the remote to be open AND close, but not sure how to get the remote to only close, or do nothing with the tailgate. Maybe something in expert mode? Or only open tailgate while unlocked? Still keep accidentally opening the tailgate so really hoping to figure it out.

There are other options that may need to be deactivated in that module.

Hi everyone!

Anyone who could advise how to proceed step by step coding with BimmerCode app in order to show SLI (speed limit sign info) in the digital cluster?? although it is not equiped from factory.

My car has KAFAS cameras but neither SLI nor HBA equiped from factory.

Thanks to all in advance.

It requires FSC code. You cannot simply code it.

FSC is an activation code.

Some vehicle functions (eg, SLI, Navigation, Carplay, etc) require in order to function. Coding without FSC does nothing.

I think I am going to give this a try. I'm trying to decide which OBDII adapter to get. Which one have people had better luck with: (1) Vgate iCar Pro Bluetooth 4.0 or (2) Veepeak OBDCheck BLE?

Good to hear.

Just wondering, if I use the bimmercode app to code a few things on my X3, then say it has to go to the dealer for some warranty update or something and they had to reprogram the car. I imagine all coding changes I made would be returned to stock.
Would I be able to use the bimmercode app again to change the previous changes I made to the car? Or will that require another purchase to unlock the code again? Thanks.
