I've just noticed that I have lost recommended tyre pressure in the iDrive tyre monitor. I still can see current pressure and temperature, but recommended pressure is not showing anymore. I've tried to reset settings but after completing the pressure analysis while moving, nothing else appears.

Using CarPlay or AA for navigation will pre-empt the BMW nav.

This is software controlled and I'm not sure if there's a flag we can code to control this behavior. For example, if you use Google maps on carplay...you get to see bmw maps on the instrument cluster while nav data shows up on the center screen and hud.

I tried to do this today but I fail to get select view on my I drive under hud settings. I have Configure View option instead

What am I missing?

EDIT:
I had to enable M_MENUE option as well....and after this I got the "Select view" option instead of configure view. Now I've successfully switched to Mview!!!

But now I have an additional M Setup menu in my settings screen....where you can configure M1 and M2 shortcut buttons for M cars.

Anyone else noticed this?

Thx.

Friendly bump - super interested in this and will also be performing these modifications

Yes, me too ....recommended pressure is missing!

Have another question on dzm_variente....I have a diesel 3.0d which is tuned to 265bhp which red lines at around 4k rpm. What do I pick in dzm_variente for my engine? It's a b57 engine which is not in the listed options. The current marking shows 6.5k for red line which is unattainable on my engine!

Only S58 and S63 are working so I'm afraid you will have to live with that...

Yep, cycled through all options...no dice.

I tried switching the mgu to a different startup animation (bmw i style) and after the ecu rebooted I started getting a bunch of errors on bimmercode.

And now every time I code I get this error on bimmercode (attached screenshot)

I'm wondering if it's because of the changes made in mgu for the m-hud? Or is something else messed up?

I think this used to be a common error when people that had second party Apple Carplay activation tried to use Bimmercode on iDrive 6. No idea why is happening now in your iDrive 7. Try to restore using a backup.

Has anyone tried to revert back to normal? It seems that these codes changed more stuff than the surface and now I am unable to switch off the "Speed limit info" and the "Display excess speed" in the Idrive HUD settings. I can toggle the check box, but it does not respond.

I have made sure that I set it back to "Standard" in the Idrive before coding the items back to the original settings.

No issues here....guess you skipped getting a couple flags back to their defaults?

Best way is to apply a backup, Bimmercode can do it for you. At least on Android, you can apply backup on every module independently, so you do not lose all other changes made in other modules.

I guess it's possible. Lol. I just followed the list for the HU module in the 1st thread and deactivated one by one.

BTW there's two M_MOTOR entries in the post.

Edit: Tried again but still the same.

The two empty checkboxes can be selected but it does not change the HUD display

Thanks. I tried to do a recovery (Android) on both the HU and DKOMBI module and still the same.

[dreamtheater39]

Try toggling the setting on idrive....coding a change on the ecu....and then restoring back to the backup on bimmercode

As I mentioned in my original post.. it's possible to get into situation with settings you cannot later change.

When you configure options AFTER configuring things like "M-HUD" - i.e. setting HUD to M-Sport, those options may remain even after resetting / restoring from backup. This is bc the coding is not setting the options, you are later. Further, after restoring code from backup will make it impossible to fix (without further coding) as you no longer have the ability to "uncheck" those options as a user. The only way to fix is to re-code M-HUD and then undo those settings you did from the BMW Infotainment center, then restore from backup.

That is, there are two sets of settings: 'BimmerCode Coded' via App and 'User Coded' options set in the BMW Infotainment center.

Naturally, BimmerCode cannot restore settings you have tweaked as a user via BMW - it only knows about the settings you configured.

Please re-read my original post as I go into more detail. Douggie I don't know if that is your issue, but it may be (larger issue of setting a "new" option and then having it get stuck - even after restoring).

Thanks sinbad4. I have tried coding M Hud again and made sure I disabled the two items in the "Edit M View", and set the HUD back to "Standard", followed by the un-code. Still the same.

I have also contacted Stephen at BC and he said try to restore both the HU and DKOMBI modules. Still not working. He also mentions that I can try to unplug the battery to force reboot the modules, but I have not tried (doesn't quite make sense)

Alright found another interesting way...

Use Protool, connect to your ecu and head to the coding section. The difference is it shows each flag that you can code and shows what the factory default value is for the flag. So you could manually check each flag and see if something is not at factory default.

Also, on protool searching for "mview" in expert mode shows all mview flags from all sub sections in a single list....making it easy to find everything in 1 go (compared to bimmer code)

I see "ProTools" in Apple App Store, is that what you're referring to? Ah.. or maybe ProTool Android only @ Play Store.

[Adeel_ssj4]

Is there a way to code this into idrive6? Just for the HUD?

Yep I guess it's an android only tool at the moment - and a really good tool! Works on a standard enet cable with adaptor

I tried this with my 2019 G20 330i, the only thing got changed was there is "M view" in the control panel, however, whenever I selected "M view" or "Standard", the HUD remains the standard one. I followed every procedures twice but still didn't work. Did I miss anything or it doesn't work on the g20? Thanks in advance.
