Congrats. Enjoy in good health.
Consider fullscreen carplay and the CS coding work. Both were well worth the cost. The power and suspension upgrades are there when you want them. M Performance coils and a tune transforms it for the better so you’ve got that to look forward too. |

Can you explain in more detail what those two things are? Im sure i could google (and i will) but im looking for up-to-date info. Thanks! EDIT: Oh carplay is an Apple thing I think? I dont have an Apple phone unfortunately. Android guy. Im assuming CS coding is just making the OG M2 more like the M2 CS somehow? What is normally changed? Steering and diff stuff?

BimmerCode gives you control over detailed settings like the brightness of your DRLs, temp of seat heaters etc. Well worth the cost of the adapter and the phone app.
I’ve done the following: Disabled backup warning Disabled startup warning on nav Mirrors fold on lock Front DRL brightness turned up Rear DRL turned on Rear Brake Force Display enabled The CS coding required the help of remote coding from Kubax86. There are various programming options for steering, dif, and MDM and the CS option is came in later versions of iStep. IStep is like the operating system for the car. Like the version of android your phone is running. The later versions include the updating steering, dif, and MDM settings the remote coder can change on your behalf. The steering update is noticeable immediately on the street in my experience. Sport+ isn’t overly firm as it is on a stock OG. Taken individually these are all smaller changes but collectively they’ve significantly updated my 2017. |

Also: tinting your windows can result in reduced range (the tint may, as added signal barrier, partially impede the signal from passing through the (tinted) windows). For example when using a remote control from inside the car to open a gate / garage door.
