Great, simple to use app. I have neither the time nor the desire to download software and watch software installation videos.
22.90 for the vgate and 26.99 for the app. I would have paid triple. I wanted 1 thing and 1 thing only. To get rid of the *#@@@@ double honk horn with the key fob outside the car with engine running. Not even $50 bucks and less than 2 minutes to make the change. I may play around with other settings in the future. For anyone concerned, I have zero technical skills and this couldnt have been easier to use. 5 stars! |

For those with 2017's.... I just tried to enable video in motion and set to active the 3 options it gave me. After i applied the code, the app said that there was an additional step needed. It mentioned something about pushing the iDrive controller forward but when I tried that, nothing happened on the iDrive and i would get an activation failed on the app.
Anybody with a 2017 have success doing this? |

I had emailed their support and he mentioned that the app currently doesn't support the front camera function but said it will be added in the near future. So far I have coded: 1. Turned off legal disclaimer 2. HUD turn signals 3. Trunk open close from key 4. Mirror fold/unfold with comfort access 5. Video in motion 6. Digital speedometer on dash 7. Fog lights with parking lights 8. Fog lights with high beams 9. door LED's on with reverse 10. Tire temperatures 11. ID6-Lite So if anyone has questions maybe I can help.

It is a gimmick and personal preference. See F15 Cheat Sheet for pictures of the different animations.

Nubie question about the Vgate
Hello All,
I would like to try this out but I've read under "Notes" from Amazon, that this only work with gas engine not diesel. So I am out of luck? Thanks in advance. 3.This products only support gasoline vehicle,can't support for Diesel or Trucks. |

I read through the thread but it wasn't mentioned. Can headlight ambers be coded off until used?? Are there any other features that the app doesn't do, that may be the best way since it seems to do so much already. Thanks for the help fellas

Other than the engine ECU, the vehicle uses the same ECU's so I would be surprised it does not support.

This kinda sucks.
I bought this for side mirror folding feature but it codes everything except this. I tried many times already and had enough time wasted already. |

So, holding down the lock/unlock on your keyfob or pressing and holding the door handle ridges won't auto fold/unfold your mirrors? Odd, I believe we have the same year and model, and the bimmercode app worked w/o any probs for me. Were you able to code anything else successfully???

Yeah this worked for me as well. Make sure you set the app to "slow communication". That setting helped me a lot in all the functions.

Question for you coding experts.
My 2016 X6 is due for it's 15k mile service in about 1200 miles, so about another month or so from now. My question is, when I take it in for her scheduled service, will I potentially lose any of the features i had coded when I first picked her up back in 2015?
