shawnsheridan,
Has anything changed in last 18 months or so in coding? That was the last I coded. I don't miss most of my codes but mirror fold and 5 blink turn signal was very convenient. Should I check the current version before attempting to code?

Thanks.

You need to udpate. PM sent.

I had the same thing happen. Got the updated files and re-coded, but unfortunately the coding for number of blinks on the turn signals does not seem to work anymore. Everything else seemed to restore just fine though.

Did you confirm idrive setting is still checked for triple blink?

Hey experts, I have a question asked earlier but got no answer. I wonder if anyone has any solution to the problem I am facing!
I have enabled video in motion and mkv files to be able to be read from USB. The problem I have is that after like 5-20 min of playing, the screen goes blank and only the sound is coming, and the only way to get out of this is to completely switch off the car, and wait for about 10 min outside and then get back into the car and replay it. I thought that this might be due to the high resolution of the files, (1080p mkv) or playing from HDD, but after changing the format to a lower resolution and using a USB Key, it didn't seem to resolve the problem.
I would really appreciate if somebody can help please

Does anyone know the code for lowering the speed for blindside monitors to work on f15 ? I think now the system only activates over 40 Mph

It's on the cheat sheet, row 35, "Active Blind Spot at lower speed".

Another (hopefully small) coding question:
I have activated the Lock / Unlock chirp setting in Idrive menu and it's working correctly.
3000 ACOUSTICAL_LOCK_CONFIRM = aktiv in HBU

The only thing I would like to accomplish is to only chirp when locked.
There's a topic here of someone who's close but I would love to keep the option to turn it off in the idrive completely:
http://f10.5post.com/forums/showpost...&postcount=466

So is it possible to only chirp at lock (1 chirp) and not at unlock (2 chrip) AND keep the option in the idrive to turn off the chirp when locked?

All help is much appreciated.

I do not even find those 3 secondary funktions in HU_CIC, HU_NBT, or HU_NBT2.

Why would you care whether box in idrive is checked or not if car functions as desired?

good morning

quick question, how do I know what features can be coded to work?
does it depend on the packages/options?

Coding is hardware specific. For example:

• Require folding mirrors to code folding mirrors with keyFOB
• Require LED Adaptive Headlights to code NGHB
• Require ACC+ & HUD to code HUD Distance Info
• Require Power Trunk to code closing trunk with keyFOB

Does anyone know exactly what line 144 does on the Cheat sheet. I already have stop- go and my car fully stops in traffic

Enable TJA (ACC-STOP and GO requried). In addition you need to purchase the Steering wheel with thouch sensor, sensor module and the wiring harness. (Part numbers in thread below)

Did you read Line 167?

From website:

It automatically maintains the desired distance from the vehicle ahead and regulates the car's speed down to standstill, as well as providing active steering support. The vehicle is therefore able to help the driver stay in the correct lane, as long as the driver keeps at least one hand on the wheel. Having been at a complete standstill for up to 30 seconds, the car automatically starts moving again. Another milestone on the path to achieving highly automated driving.

Hello from France.

I want to code the ehanced Bluetooth but I am very surprise, I do not find the 6NH option :



I use everyday my phone to listen some music with bluetooth, and when I look the commercial documentation of the english market where I bought my car, the 6NH is standart :





Can I had the 6NS without removing 6NH in the FA ?

Yes. Just add 6NS.

[matriochka]

I find myself the answer, reading the 131 pages of posts is long...

The answer is on page 19, post 414 :

http://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...&postcount=414

"For F15, just adding 6NS is normal. 6NH won't be in FA."

look also for post 417 and 427.

Thank you Shamnsheridan !

Is it possible to code the panoramic moon roof shade to slide open upon unlocking the vehicle and close upon locking?

Not to auto-open and auto-close. But, you can code for CA and keyFOB to be able to move windows and mirrors.
