Amazon would be my guess for most things in life.

Tried both, neither worked. Both the remote and the door handle.

I can't even try with mine right now because I dropped off my car yesterday.

I'll let you know in 2 months when I see her again! Lol

This is a comfort access feature. It's standard in Australia, but may be different in other markets.

Sorry to sound like a noob, but what is Comfort Closing/Opening/Access?

That´s exactly what I meant in my quote

As I wrote, it is the same with the key remote... And of course works also in the opposite way for the key, hold "open" and windows will go down as long as you hold it

Works for EU spec exactly the same as in Australia. It has to be the same also for any other version I guess...

Comfort in BMW language is another word for keyless entry

Excuse the ‘dumb’ question if it’s dumb!

If you buy the Bluetooth adapter, I presume you can’t be connected to your car at the same time for handsfree phone calls?

Yep that's the one I got, and I think it's also the recommended one on BimmerCode's site

I guess if you're using Bimmerlink for exhaust control/etc that might be a problem, but for coding I can't see a need to have the adapter plugged in constantly.

I have my Veepeak constantly plugged and no problem with handsfree. Bimmerlink connection is phone-bt module and then you have another phone-car. If you have 2 different connections, it has to work together I think (at least Iphone is ok). But you have to try it in real life of course...

I didn´t found any limitation in idrive, but maybe I missed something. Did you try to hold it for more than 2 seconds?

I use the OBDLink LX Bluetooth for both my s4 and m2c and love it. Beyond just coding, its transfer rate is great for monitoring and logging.

Is it possible to code in Apple Car Play if you haven't bought it as an option?

[BishUK]

Can someone please clarify as this is getting a little confusing now, does BimmerCode work now with M2C? If it doesn't, is the developer aware and working on a fix?

If I remember correctly, you have US spec, right? I remember reading in a thread that US spec cars have this feature turned off. Good news is that I was able to use BimmerCode to turn it on and the mirrors now fold with Comfort Access.

I can only speak for myself. I use an android tablet with the OBDLink bluetooth device I mentioned above and have had no problems using bimmercode. I used it to code everything I wanted before dropping it off for PPF, etc a few days ago.
