Keep your seatbelt on.

Is there a way to code the option for the X5M tachometer display on the HUD??

Not on an F15; it is different hardware/software.

Do I have some weird version of software on my F15 that doesn't respond to this coding line the way it should? All other things I've coded work just fine.

Did you get an answer to this, I have the same issue that it doesn't unlock the doors when I shut the engine off? I coded using BimmerCode but don't know what else to try.

Does anyone know if there is a way to code the Engine Auto Start/Stop feature to be DISABLED by default? I have to manually push the button to disable it every time, and its a PITA!

I checked out the R33 Cheat Sheet for my F86 (F15), but didnt see anything for it

TIA!

LSD4me · 04-30-2019, 02:48 PM

Im an idiot

Just found it on R33's cheat sheet lol

Line 74 for anyone interested

No, I was never able to get this resolved. I even worked with the Bimmercode support guys to no avail. They mentioned something about linking possibly being corrupted with my software.

I'd really like to get this issue resolved as it is a really useful feature, especially when you have kids. This way all doors are always open when you go out to the car in the garage and such. Anyone have any possible solutions for us to try out?

Did you download BimmerCode as well. Honestly nothing to be worried about. It's very easy. If you have a problem you can use your backup.

yes i did i was wondering what is the fialure i see can i edit the light colors via bimmer code i thought i saw it as an option on here but i dont see it listed as an option on bimmercode info for f15? also for road signs i dont have the drive assistant option on my car can i still get that from maps or do you need that camera to read the speed limits?

thanks

Bimmercode should be able to do colors. Author just did not preconfig as option so you would need to use expert mode.

SLI requires FSC code. Coding option alone will not enable. An alternative is an emulator that will add option to read from maps.

Muzza · 05-04-2019, 09:30 AM

I asked this elsewhere, but more fitting here...

Cars with self parking limited to parallel parking feature; any way to code in the perpendicular parking feature as is available in newer models?

so i updated to 2019-1 maps with lifetime fsc code, ic ant seem to find it anywhere, would i need to re-enter this code? or would i just repurchase another one? interesting is there a post here that specifies exactly where colors are?

thanks btw

If you already have lifetime, then no where to enter.

There is post somewhere but cannot seem to find.

Im trying to load up E-Sys and upon connecting, im presented with 2 different options for the F25

I have attached a photo here

View post on imgur.com

I have a 2016 F86, so i hope the F25 was the correct choice...

Im just not sure if i have to select the one with 18_11_520 or 19_03_535

Thanks!
