@BimmerCode

Could you perhaps code the cluster lights not to turn orange for the bottom portion? Even better, change cluster lights not be orange on the top as well?

Also for the car to start in sport mode?

Thank you.

Wow, that's awesome. Have a question about a few of your items.
Brake Force Display Mode - What is that exactly?
Disable Windows Up Safety Feature?
Rear Fogs Enabled? - Do we have fog lights in the rear?

When you coded some of these, did you code them one at a time or a combination at a time? Thanks for your feedback.

BFD is a feature that lights up your rear fog lights when you brake very hard and ABS is activated. You can change this from an illumination of the rear fog lights to flashing which is what I did. You can also change how many times a second it flashes (3 or 5) and you can even change it to the european style which flashes the brake lights instead of the rear fogs.

Normally when your doors are open the automatic window up pull won't work. You'll have to hold the button to roll up the window. This fixes that.

You can only code combinations within the same module. If one thing you want to code is in the Front Electronic Module and another thing is in the Rear, they have to be coded separately.

Demo mode doesn't show the same information and options as actually connecting to the car.

If you connect to the car you'll see you can't toggle ASD on/off. It has to be restored from a backup.

How exactly do we use the expert mode? Any tips please?

Haven't clicked it yet, don't want to mess anything up lol

Is there also a backup for expert mode stuff?

Anytime you make any sort of coding change a backup will automatically be made. Expert mode doesn't have it's own backups separate from easy mode. It's all consolidated.

Expert mode is not something that you should be experimenting with on your own. You need specific instructions to be able to navigate it. If you want to try it out here's a ESYS cheat sheet i found on the 2 series forum.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bwv...hKSWdRTDg/edit

Keep in mind you won't be able to access every part of the ecu on the bimmercode app. Some coding will require you to use ESYS because bimmercode simply can't access every part of the car at this time. Most of what's on the cheat sheet can be done in easy mode so it's pretty pointless in my opinion.

I think the only thing I wasn't able to do in easy mode so far was the voltage changes for the LCI tail light retro fit i did. You really won't be using expert mode often, if ever. Bimmercode has pretty much put everything you can do to the car in easy mode.

But...If you wanna try something fun in expert mode just for shits and giggles give this a shot:

Cool thanks!!

Doesn't sound like I want to mess with it just yet then haha..

What I was interested in was I read something about the electric seat sliding back when you unlock the car so you can get in without scuffing it up? Then start the car and it goes back to saved position?

I couldn't see that one thing in easy mode - did I miss it? Or it isn't available for the M2?

Pretty sure you can do video in motion via USB as well. Haven't tried it myself though as I don't watch movies while I drive lol.

[horsepower_and_hounds]

One thing when you coded with the app, it should have asked you to do something in the I-drive at the end of the code. Did you perform it? I miss understood it the first time I tried and the coding failed

Posted this on the main section too. I stream Netflix and xfinity. Don’t even know what where to download... having mirrorcast like the Samsung users would allow me to have my xfinity in the car

After some quick searching i've found something you could retrofit called smartview.
It would allow you to mirror any device onto the idrive:

Here's a write up of the install:

I'm not familiar with it so you'll have to do your own research and reading lol. Hope this helps. Cheers.

Anyone know how to make the windows not roll down when you open the door?

Why would you do that? That keeps the window from damaging the door seal.

I'm tired of the little marks that are left at the bottom of the glass. I can't see how it would damage anything.

This is the reason why BMW frameless windows drop down a bit when doors are open, quoted from 1addicts:

The seal on the BMW cabin is very tight...pretty much air tight. When you close the door with the window cracked a bit, it prevents the pressure wave that pops your ears. Plus, BMW likes to use frameless windows...relieving that air pressure when the door closes also keeps the window from being stressed and bow out, which can cause a less than perfect seal against the weatherstripping.

BTW...for those of you new to frameless windows...NEVER close the door from the window. It puts a large amount of stress on the window and can crack it eventually.

Just a point of interest: I used the Bimmercode app on my iPhone 7 with the vGate iCar Pro Dual Bluetooth 4.0 and it worked flawlessly.
