Anyway Shawn, from another thread i saw that you did change the sport auto shifter. Does changing the shifter alone affect the way how the transmission shifts? Or is it just the s1 - s7 coding that affect the gear changes?
I am really interested on doing the paddle shift retrofit as well. And do you have any idea on how doable it is to do that? Is it as simple as running cables from the shifter to the paddles on the steering or is it something much more complicated involved?

Ps: Sat shifters and sport steering wih paddles are not my concern anymore.

D1-D8 to go along with S1-S7 would be nice, but I did not see anything in EGS for that. Although since my car seldom operates in that girly mode, I admittedly did not give searching for that code its due diligence.
Hello Shawn,

Your posts on Bimmerfest.com and Bwmcoding.com are always very helpfule to me..
For example, http://www.bmwcoding.com/showthread....h-to-icm/page2

I'm the member of BMW F serise club in Korea and I firstly introduced e-sys coding to F club.

I found this this value for S1~8 display on 20. July, 2011

I think, 'mongsiri' is one of F club member.

Thank you again!!

Well tell mongsiri I said hello. I haven't heard anything from him in a while.

And if you get to Okku-Silver Town, give all the girls my best.

I thought maybe then based on what you experienced that Sportschalter got it to the Sport / M-Sport equivalent, then Sportschalter_alt brought it to SAT. The problem with that though is I would have expected Sportschalter to default to aktiv on cars with Sport / M-Sport, but that isn't the case. So, this doesn't make much sense.

We need to test a few more non Sport Cars and Sport / M-Sport cars, and see if this behavior is at least consistent, where both are needed for non Sport, and only Sportschalter_alt is needed for Sport / M-Sport cars.
I changed only one settings on my F30 328i.
I have only automatic 205 in gearbox.
EGS / 3000 Applikation
Sportschalter_alt = nicht_aktiv
Sportschalter = aktiv
Now it (S1-S7) works, but I do not know whether it's right or not?

If it is working, it is right. Some have to change only one, and other have to change both.

I checked my '12 M sport and both of these are enabled by default. I do have the SAT option w/ the paddle shifters. Not sure if that helps w/ whether to activate both or not.

To anyone who is interested in coding this on a F30 (I have a sport line non M), the result sort of changes how sports mode is entered and how it behaves; I have modified as

Sportschalter_alt = nicht_aktiv
Sportschalter = aktiv

or both active and I could not tell any difference, with just sportschalter active you will be able to see S1-7. Before the modification, with both not active, DS is displayed in sports mode and if you tab the control lever left or return it to normal position, sports mode or comfortable mode is selected automatically. After the coding, with either with just Sportschalter active or both active, taping the lever to the left or normal position does not automatically select sport mode or comfort mode, instead, it will active the S1-7 display and put transmission (and transmission only) in sports mode. And after you manually select the mode through buttons to the left of the lever, the rest of the car goes into sport mode. (steering, accelerator etc. ) Please correct me if I am wrong.
