Upon further testing, I'm not sure the BMW recent coding wiped out the prior coding regarding no hatch opening with car locked. But then, I've also made other tailgate opening and closing options, so not sure exactly where I stand.
Only issue I've had lately is the famous sidewalk DYI car wash hatch opening and related locking and unlocking of the whole car during washing.

Not rare here in North Texas. We have an epidemic of rats due to all the home construction. This one manage to squeeze itself under the garage door where the builder cut the seal too short. Had that replaced when the X went in for surgery.

Correct...there is something in the recycled plastic coating on the wires that the rodents love the taste/smell of. If I'm not mistaken there was an attempt in the last couple of years for a class action lawsuit against an auto manufacture (can't remember who but seems like a US auto maker) for using that type of wiring. I didn't hear anything about it going forward so not sure on the status of the possible claim.

I just bought a M40I out of state, the report shows the BMW dealer did same thing to my car before I bought it(B122019 Delivery Stop: Program Control Units DME).
I believe it cleared all the settings and coding, so that's why I can't pass the smog check due to OBD2 O2 sensor readiness. https://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1633427 Thanks for all the answers, helped me understand what happens on my car. But I'm still trying to finish the drive cycle to get pass the smog check, seems like the lazy O2 sensor still missing on the on board computer after 200 miles driving. |

After BMW reprogrammed, I did get a CEL that later went away on its own. My build date is also Feb '18. When I pulled error codes using MHD this is what I saw: Quote:

That may be why my car has no ACP anymore. There's also some developer link in my Menü with a bunch of weird selections.....I'm reluctant to try and reinstall ACP.

So today I received a message that my 2019 X3M40I has a recall and to call and schedule. I run the VIN on the BMW website and no outstanding recalls. I have to take a day off and a pain to get to the dealer. Who do I believe?

Why bring it in just for that? Wait for your next oil change.
