All BMWs New Code: Speed of Mirror Folding During Comfort Closing

I just tried this on my F30; works perfectly! Thanks

You're right, 00 is just fine; there is just the perfect amount of time between just locking and the start of folding.

Great! This one is still bringing me a smile every time I close the car. I hated the delay.

I personally find this delay annoying. I am usually left behind by my wife as I stand there waiting for the mirrors to fold. Now you can get rid of this delay by changing the following code:

CAS->3003 FH MASTER->KMFRT_SCHLIESSEN->Werte=00 (the default value is Werte=0F)

This results in a much faster folding of the mirrors when comfort closing.

My pleasure

Just coded my car with this. Awesome find.

Thank you all…

Apologies...

-nevermind

Thanks for the tip! I can confirm that this works on E Series cars too; I did it to my E90 a couple days ago. It's a bit more involved because you have to disassemble the NCSExpert data file in NCSDummy, override the value and then reassemble it. After that just save the trace file as .MAN and write it back.

Great!

I am happy it worked for you too.

Guys that did this code. Does it also make the key fob also close the mirrors faster? There is also a delay when the mirrors close with fob. Wondering if this change also effect it?? Anyone

cn555ic,

I never close my car with the FOB, so I have not notice if this change makes that FOB folding faster. I would suspect it does. I will test later today.

cn555ic,

You made me go downstairs just to test it

I does make the mirror folding faster also with the FOB closing.

Niiice!!! I hated the fact it took so long with keyfob! Thanks for testing it. You the man. This should be pretty easy for the E series like Merlosso stated. Some nettodat coding should take care of that . We owe it to you for such a great find!!

Very nice feature indeed :-)))

And there is the same possibility for Comfort Open.
Pressing the "open" key on the FOB for longer than 2,5 seconds rolls down the windows and opens the sunroof.
Comes in very handy when the car was parked in bright sunshine all day long and heated up to diabolical temerature (especially when black/black).
So 2,5 seconds seem like an eternity.

It is in CAS /3003 / KMFRT_OEFFNEN, default set to hex 19, I reduced to hex 0A (1 Second) which suits me better :-))

lol I was just going to post this today as I played around with that same script for my convertible top..It use to take 2.5 seconds before it started to roll windows down and convertible top, I changed it to 0A(1 second) also and its perfect now...Default was way tooooo slow for me

So it works for the E Series too! Great! I was going to poke around and research that this weekend. Now I wonder if there's a way to eliminate the delay between the windows and sunroof. It nearly doubles the time when the sunroof waits to go last.

Your PM box is full!
Yeah i got mine to work but remember I have original software that hasnt been updated from 2007!!!!.. I dont have CA either! I have also tried to code other cars for the top to come back up but to no success and it has to do with the software of the CTM module.. I have been able to code it where the top come down though...Have you had success with that?

I cleaned up my mailbox; sorry about that. I don't want to hijack the thread so I'll send you another PM. Thanks for the info!

I am not able to look because I am sick in bed browsing through my cell. But I am pretty sure what you are looking for is in the f10 cheat sheet.

@merlosso

all statements below related to Data 48.2, F07, all Values (WERTE) in hex.

the delays are as follows
CAS / 3003 /
KMFRT_OEFF_HINTEN --> Delay between opening front / rear windows, default = 05
KMFRT_OEFF_SHD --> Delay between opening rear windows and SunRoof, default = 23

Since apparently all WERTE settings are hex and in 1/10 seconds this means 3,5 seconds before the roof starts to work.

Same applies to closing
KMFRT_SCHL_VORNE --> Delay between closing rear then front windows, default = 05
KMFRT_SCHL_SHD --> Delay between closing front windows then SunRoof, default = 23

I am just wondering if tampering with too many applications to windows mirrors and sunroof to open or close at the same time might create some type of extra drain on the battery and possibly a short, and to eliminate this thus the delay that BMW has implemented. Well the way it's setup from factory is way too long though, but IMO I wouldn't make everything work at the same interval time just for the fact of the amperage draw to battery. I have just coded only the mirrors and the comfort closing time intervals. The others I will not tread into coding it.

you definitely are right on that.

there IS a reason for the default delays between powering windows front/rear and sunroof and thats why I'm not going to tamper with those.
Just with the initial delay.

Anyway, even when shortening the delay between windows/sunroof action it still is necessary to keep the button pressed until everything is opened/closed.
So I decided to leave it to the professionals (hopefully thinking that they know what they were doing when prrogramming the whole thing in the first place) to leave those intermediate delays alone.

might be somewhat related/unrelated to the topic, but has anyone figured out how to reduce delay from closing the door and to locking the door with comfort access? I searched a bit and it seems like 2010/11 cars coded with latest software got it fixed so I'm assuming it's in the CAS setting somewhere...
