Mine always start with back up camera, you have to manually change it every time to top, which is dawn painful.
I remember that there was something about it in the Coding Guide sheet but none of it worked.

Also if you know for "Front camera at any speed"? Also found something about it in sheet but not working

Thanks!

I didn't code anything. It just works that way. But I do have a 2014. Also I coded the front camera I think but I never use that.

Does anyone know what does coding "sport transmission active" do under "Transmission Control" in Bimmercode? Is it turning on "Sport" mode permanently?
Thank you)

No it does not make it sport mode permanently.

Oh, by any chance do you know what does it do? I coded it out of curiosity and when coding takes place i can feel something happening with the transmission, like a little thump. I could not tell if she behaved differently. Coded back to "not active".

I assume you don't have an M sport? It's just a different setting for more aggressive shifting that the M sport has that the X line doesn't

There are several different ways to get maps. I would do a quick search on here and do some research. Too many options to pollute this thread with.

I am buying a Virginized Cluster, would it possible to code the cluster with the Bimmercode app?

Hey guys, need some help here.
I want to change the # of turn signal blinks. From the cheat sheet, I suppose to change “BLINKZYKLEN_ANZAHL_TIPP” under BDC-BODY —3068. However, I just can’t find it under 3068. Is it in the different location now?
Thanks

I swear I was able to code the activation speed of blindspot assist with Bimmercode. Dealer updated my iDrive, so all coding is gone.

Now I was trying to code the blindspot activation speed again, but I can't figure it out. Expert mode doesn't seem to be available anymore in the ICM ECU.

Am I missing something or did Bimmercode make a change to the app and no longer supports this?

I believe that has gone away. I got it to work a while back in expert mode only then when I took the car to the dealer for some work, they must have installed new code as its gone. Others have reported the same. IMHO this is a big one, 3 flashes is not enough, 5 was perfect.

Author took down that portion for updates. He does that periodically. Just email him in the future. You'll get a better more accurate response to these things. It'll come back in the next update.

im subbed for this. literally got everything done EXCEPT for this.. coding either wouldnt stick or there are more lines that need to be modified. I am only making the changes in "easy mode" would be happy to explore "expert mode' solutions if anyone has any pointers...

Have you tried in section "Instrument Cluster" to activate "performance logo" and then into "performance logo variant" choose the one you are looking for?

I had the M550d logo easily on my car, I have the electronic cluster fyi

good luck

I've never seen one that is for just M performance. I've only gotten the M550d to work

My brother in law has a f30 335i. I was able to code the M performance on his. But not a digital cluster. I've tried on my x5 but could only get the m550d. From what I understood it's not available to get on the x5.
