Is it possible to code colors in ambient lighting in bimmercode. When I open mine, instead of color codes I see some strange values. Or I have to add new value with code of color?

Do you have ‘slow communication’ turned on in settings?

Was able to successfully code my x5 with the app using android device. Developer has code clearing built into it and don't need additional app. Not bad at all for under $60.

Coded the following:
1. Tail gate closing with button on the driver door.
2. Tail gate closing with remote key fob.
3. Remove the disclaimer.
4. added the M in the headunit for start up display.
5. Added turn signals to HUD.
6. Fogs with high beam.
7. Tried but didn't work turn signal x 5. ( will troubleshoot this further when i get a chance this weekend).
8. Mirrors unfolding with comfort access.

i couldn't find the setting where i can switch on fogs with headlights ( headlight are set to auto, but fogs don't turn on with it).
My door handle lights already turn on with reverse. Probably will look into coding additional items as time goes on.

Quick question guys. Is there a towbar code area (rear view camera zoom) on one of the modules using the V-Gate and BimmerCode?

Well bought the adaptor and app in hopes of being able to code my angel eyes back to 100% for DRL function, but the app doesn't seem to support the location of that ECU. The TMS I believe is where I need to be. Any help would be appreciated. I had anti dazzle coded by code my car and for some reason it dimmed my DRL down. It's driving me crazy.

I just coded mine and could not get the turn signal to accept 5 blinks either. It would automatically change to 1. I emailed them to fix it.

EDIT: After reading through all 21 pages this seems to be common.

Since I use ESys via laptop and not the app, I'm only speculating here. The problem may be that the app is not recognizing which I-Step level people are on and modifying the appropriate BDC_BODY module?
That is, for older I-Step levels, the function to modify was BLINKZYKLEN_ANZAHL_TIPP in Module 3068 and it actually gave you the ability to program four blinks if you wished.
Newer I-Step levels, the function to modify is PIA_DEFAULT_TIPPBLINKEN in Module 3069 and it appears you have the choice of one, three, or five blinks only.
Also, if you check the box of "Triple Blink" in iDrive... it'll erase your freshly coded setting of five blinks. That's what happened to me yesterday.

I keep seeing "hatch open/close from the door button". My X5 does this stock. You push the tailgate button to open it and pull it up and hold to close it.
