Defeating Auto Start/Stop - permanently


Note: This will only affect some markets due to "factory configuration".

If there's one thing I despise about modern BMWs, it's the pesky engine Auto START/STOP feature.

While you can turn this off, it is activated by default every time you start the engine.

BMW F series owners will know of course it can be coded out, some F8x guys have already done so on their ///M's.

I wanted to wait until the RI and get the latest software updates before coding it out.

I tackled this recently, below is a high level overview of it all:






























No more auto start/stop ever

In addition I coded the puddle lights (door handles) to illuminate upon reverse.


You can find copies of E-Sys on ebay or at bimmerfest.com with instructions
