Late September files are available. October files within the week.
Thank you! One more question - from e-Sys launcher do I select F015 or F025 series?
And connection string for what series if I'm coding 2018 x5?
Never mind, found the answers !

Thanks! I got it and coded several modules. Running into 1 issue - not able to read and code HKFM

1. I have 2018 x5, I step level is f025-17-07-504
2. Got latest from Mega data files (light v3.62.5)
3. Coded several modules w/o problems
4. Wanted to code open/close trunk with keys and button. After reading and activating FA I see HKFM2. Read coding data for CAFD section. No errors. Do Edit FL and on the next screen I see full structure but not the parameters and their values. Again, no errors. Tried several times to disconnect/connect to car, re read FA, this module - the same result

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Not sure. Does it look different than this?

I take it you did not code the car yourself, because you can check in the module to see what the DRLs are set at, by default it should be 100%.

The name of CAFD file is empty,
I see the list of 300x numbers, but not the names of the functions and subfolders where you can change the values

I did not this time. I coded my F80 M3 last time, but I bought the invisihitch and they include coding, so I went that route.

I just bought the WiFi adapter and BimmerCode app. Hopefully I can change it back to 100%.

Coding DRL with headlights and parking on

All,
Thanks for all your assistance, much appreciated. Have 2018 x5 with comes with standard Xenon headlights but hallo wings are LEDs. Saw post about coding parameters ( from 7v to 13v) in BODY unit instead of FLE folders. Would the same approach and values work in my car?

Thanks in advance!

It's whatever standard headlight is. I didn't upgrade to full LED lights

Adaptive headlamps will get LHM/TMS or FLE for LED. Either way, intensity is controlled in those ECU's rather than BDC. So, you should look for TMS ECU in E-sys.

When I red ECU, I didn't see FLE in the list of modules retrieved

FLE only found on LED headlamps. Did you see TMS?

Hi all.

Tried coding the dimming mirror function on my x5 m50d (BDC_BODY 3120 as per the coding cheat sheet). Changed value from default 20 to 39.

In doing so, I noticed my interior led strip lights and footwell lights no longer work. There were no errors whilst coding and I'm certain this value does affect the interior lights.

Anyone seen this before?

Many thanks.

May I get a link to latest software? I used this guide to code 2015 X6. Now I have 2017 X6M, can I use software and guide the same way?

Thank you in advance!

HKFM2 with CAFD_00005710 and CAFD_0000570E are both unmapped. Though, position of codes has not moved so you can use CAFD_00002098 or Launcher Cheat Codes as reference.

No free publicly available solution. There are commercial options.

If coded correctly it will.

That should be on from factory.

Vmax can only be changed within 10 operating hours.

For turn signal, there are two functions. You should use newer one with your firmware.
