I have Bimmercode and an F85. I have posted a few threads on mod'ing my F10, and have needed to use both ESYS and Bimmercode.

I can tell you right now that going into expert mode without full knowledge of what you are changing will result in a hosed up vehicle. In export mode, it's in German, and abbreviated German, which you can use Translate Google, but good luck with that.

My suggestion is to invest in ESYS with an ENET cable. You'll get better results and there is a lot more help on the forum for ESYS VO coding.

There are more than one threads on these forum's that have hosed their vehicles up trying to use both tools. If you use the translated options already in English in Bimmercode, you should be 100% safe.

I wouldn't use either on my F85 yet...my 2018 is still under warranty and if the dealer reprograms, I loose all VO custom settings.

Cheers.
