All BMWs Coding made easy: Step by step instructions

How taboo is this really with BMW? What do you do when you take the car in
for service given this 'may' invalidate the warranty? Would they know that you've made changes and would they give you a hard time about it?

Also for a leased vehicle would you restore to factory defaults before turning back in?

Me, I don't worry about it. Some do though. You can easily reset a coded module to as delivered condition, bring it in for service, and then recode it. It's not a big deal at all.

You can recode the modules from ESYS, can you not? I need to spend more time, but from a quick glance you can code from you VO (vehicle order), which puts it back to factory settings for your region.

Yes, that is what I am referring to above in my post about just resetting them.

Who's VM's are these? Your own creations, or someone else's?

Are they Dongle Protected?

Must you have ICOM Interface, or do you include an ICOM Emulator?

Will be getting either an f06 or f10 in February and interested in doing some coding on the car. I need all the software and cable. Shawn, can you provide the link and approx cost to get started. Looks like you are also a Houston member, what part of town? Thanks for any help.

I want to learn some coding, I hear ncsexpert, DIS, progman... I think these are all software that give you an interface... (they all do the same thing?)

I know there is a special wire also.

Can you send me some info, what I need, reading materials, maybe code list... Idk, the geek in me is excited about that stuff...

Anyone in the va, dc, baltimore area?

Thanks

By the way I have a 2004 645ci. (guess that matters since I read out is a e63/64 ccc)

For your 2004 645ci, you need NCS Expert coding application, the latest SP-Daten coding data Files, and a K+DCAN Interface Cable.

Thanks I will look this stuff up. If anyone in the DC area has done this let me know. Would like to get an idea of what was done to the car

I bought a BMW 5 series, and I'm very interested in this thread. Thank you to April1 very much!
I have 2 questions as below:
How to use his soft tools restore the saved original CAFD files?
How to reset inspection and oil info?

Thinks a lot!

E. inpection can be reset by Idrive. CBS by cluster mode or a BMW tester.

Guys
I tried coding today my 13 F10 550 today for the first time. I will say first that instructions are awesome.
I could not find the module HU CIC in my car profile. There was one HUD. Are these the same? I wanted to turn on the HUD turn signals.

How can I find HU CIC. Thanks

No, HUD is not HU (Head Unit).

You probably do not have CIC iDrive.

Did you see HU_xxxxx, like HU_ENTRY, HU_CHAMP, etc.?

2013 F10/F07/F01/F02 is NBT iDrive.

I have the full nav thing. I remember seeing another HU module but could not find section 3000 HMI. I did not want to change anything in KOMBI module because of the warning issues and loss of date and time as there was an option to turn on the turn signals in HUD in the KOMBI module as well.

I misread his profile, I saw his 2011 X5, and thought he had a 2011 F10.

Yes then, he has HU_NBT instead.

Yes I have HU_NBT in coding. There is no HU CIC. Does it mean that I cannot do the CIC stuff.
Today I was able to do coding for trunk, side mirrors, turn fog lights on with high beams etc..

No. It means the codes on the Cheat Sheet for HU_CIC and CMB_MEDIA will be in your HU_NBT instead.

I recently leased a 2013 535xi & would like to get help from someone in NJ to code some of the annoying features that I would like to get rid of if possible. I'm in central NJ.

I know that DreamCar is in NJ, not sure if he is still willing to help people code their cars.

Any help would be appreciated.

Tripl3_O coding is having a meet in Willow Grove PA tomorrow from 4 to 9 PM, maybe about an hour from you.

Inbox for details

I am in the process of getting a cable built, where can I get the software? I need it for both 2012 X5 and 2013 550ix Thanks
