Then it's a matter of buying a cable off ebay or the like or you may be able to make yourself one.

http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=997749 is probably the best place to start. I would expect the M2 is going to be rather similar to the other F22/23s.

I've got ESys running on a Win7 VM on my MacBook Air and have used it to code my 228i, hopefully will do the same with my M2 next year
Windows 7-10 works (Not XP). Requires .NET Framework 4.5.

E-series is more complicated; different software and cable. F-/I-/G-series is rather straight forward.

Coding does not work. Only way is a hardware mod.

I see it on the euro cars but we have it disabled here in Aus.
Due to placement of speed limit signs on buses, it is disabled in AUS. You can enable with emulator that uses speed limit info from maps.

It must be done through scripts as bitmask data limits speed on ID5. Alternatively, hardware mod can fool GPS.

Possible to either set to default off or enable memory. Can also disable in Sport Mode.

Easy enough to do. Let me know if interested.

Thanks
ID4 - Yes
ID5 - up to 63 kph, unless you activate it through scripts or hardware mod.

F80/F82/F83 with LHM/TMS have correct hardware. F3x with FLE do not have micro optic shutters.
