I have absolutely no idea. I VO coded both units but found that NAV wasn’t even showed in my HUD. Playing with FDL codes caused various different display methods with the only one that looked as it did with my 6WA being listed above. Originally I had no white circles in HUD around roundabouts and Nav in the kombi wasn’t displayed correctly, arrows were cut short etc

VO Coding requires that the Option Code be valid for your Vehicle including the Build date in FA. Often a newer FA Build Date (Zeitkriterium) must be used.

 

I'm sure the 6WB was available in 2015 for my F10? Is there a way of knowing? Also......red dot be gone! Finally!! This 6WB has been a PITA!
My Carprog arrived today, removing the short VIN in the 95320 was a piece of cake!

You would have to check the 2015 5-Series U.K. Ordering Guide to see if 6WB is valid for your build.

 

Is that an actual database that’s available online or just the original brochure/literature for that year?

No DB. Just a .pdf.

Why bother though. Just change FA date to newer date like 1117 and VO Code Dkombi and NBT for 6WB and see if you have a difference.

 

If I spend much more time out there the Mrs will kill me haha next time I’m out playing I might, I can restore the correct CAFD coding by right clicking the CAFD and selecting new FDL can’t I? Then select the saved one with changes? Sure I read that somewhere?

I still having a bad problem with my 6WB. HUD Flashes for some seconds and then stop working. Anyone solved this issue?

 

Hello!

Known issue. You have to flash your 6WB to a newer i-level, that will solve your HUD problem.

Hi,

I need a virgin for VDO 6WA 9232892

Is there any way to do the retrofix without cleaning the VIN with the 270?

I do not have to, I'll have to buy one if I have to

And step to coding this for my F20

Thanks for you time!

You can't edit the VIN on the kombi without an eeprom programmer like the R270. Even with the virgin bin file you'll need the programmer to write it to the eeprom. I bought a Chinese clone and it worked great on my F30 6WA and my F10 6WB. Although I needed a different programmer for the 95320 eeprom on the 6WB.

Hello!

Hmm, I deleted more than 400 6WB in the last years and I never deleted the VIN in 95320 - never!! And every 6WB is working as expected.

Okay, I understand.

Is the programming with E-Sys the same as 6WA for 6WB?

I am referring to the tutorials that exist

 

The 6WB that I just got for my F10 had 2 VINs in the 95320 EEPROM. I initially wrote a virgin BIN to the 160D0WT and installed to the car. I then injected CAFD and still had the red dot. I have read many threads where you have said that the car automatically writes the new VIN to the 95320 also but this wasn’t the case for me. I’m no expert, just an enthusiast that enjoys retrofits. When I read the 95320 EEPROM with a Carprog that I ordered there were 2 VINs in the EEPROM. My short VIN and also the KOMBIs original VIN. I had to edit this with the Carprog to clear the red dot. I have no idea why this happened but from reading others have had the same problem.

Edit: Ive attached the BIN's so you can see. The original 6WB is the original 160D0WT from the KOMBI with the original VIN, the other is the dump after I had cleared the 160D0WT vin and installed in the car. As you can see the 95320 EEPROM took my long VIN (I've blanked the long part and left the last 7) and further down you can see the original car VIN. I had to edit this to remove the red dot. What do you do thats different Oliver? It confused the hell out of me!

Pretty much, once the VINs cleared and the units virginised the process is pretty much the same. If you get stuck just ask, there are loads of people that know exactly what to do.

the F2O 's basic kombi is different process,must be write the 6wb vo to svm

 

write the 6WB to the vcm, and you must make the MOST connection to the headunit

 

Going to be taking a 6WB out of my F15 as we will be selling it soon and I am going to be the native 6WA back in.

I would like to sell the 6WB, however, to make it easiest on the buyer I would like to clear out the VIN and mileage.

The clearing of the VIN seems pretty straight forward at this point, however, I feel like there is conflicting information out there regarding the virginization of the mileage.

Forgive me if some of this information is wrong...

Some places I have seen that you can flash the chip with a virgin bin, others say only VIN can be reset but not mileage, and others say you can resolder a virgin chip on. Is any of this correct or pertinent? I guess I need to break my unit down and see what chip is installed on it (purchased it from BMW in Fall 2016).

Let me know when you sell :bigpimp:

 

Hi,
Can you help me please, where should I write FF to virginize the cluster

is it the one in row 580 and 650 ? The whole row or
Only these values :
35 41 30 39 36 30 34

resetting the km is not needed, the cluster has lower mileage than the car

Thanks

I always use a different hex editor to amend my files. The R270 one is useless. Open it in a different editor and it will be more obvious where your VINs are and easier to change them.

6WB F30 coding help

I am looking to my fellow Bimmer community for assistance.

2013 F30 w/CIC - Just installed 6WB

When i go to code the new VO to the DKOMBI module, CODE is greyed out and CAFD is not there anymore. I have read that i would need to inject the CAFD into DKOMBI but cannot seem to find a clear guide on how to do that. Detect CAF for SWE is also unavailable.

I am using E-Sys 3.28.1 by TokenMaster

My second question - is there no possibility at all that my HUD will work after this retrofit. I have been told that 6WB and CIC will cause my HUD to not function. Can i at least get the speed? Do i have to get the NBT retrofit for my HUD to come back?

If any coders are available this evening for remote assistance and a chat i would be happy to pay

Use E-Sys 3.27.1, and then Detect CAF for SWE to inject CAFD into DKombi and VO Code it.

I have no idea on HUD. I see no reason why HUD would not work if car has factory 610 HUD Option, and you have correct F3x 6WB version.

 

my VIN F586226 has HUD and my vehicle has a working HUD (6WA)
When you say correct F3x 6WB version what do you mean by that?
Thanks

 

I am saying that the 6WB Part Number must be designed for F3x Car with HUD. Verify it in ETK.

 

My car comes standard with HUD, and after retrofitting the "6WB with HUD option" it still works exactly the same.
Just wanted to thank Shawn for all the help his provided to myself and everyone else on the forums!!

 

Can you see NAV directions and arrows on both the HUD and the 6WB (HUD specific ETK part) you have retrofitted??

I mean... on a preLCI F36 (built 10/2016), with 6WA, NBT Evo and HUD.... if I install the 'HUD 6WB Instrument Cluster' -62109442850-..... Will NAV directions be shown
- like now (you select on iDrive settings if you want them to show on the Instrument Cluster little bottom screen OR on the HUD) ??
- or ONLY on the IC, or ONLY on the HUD??
- or ON BOTH simultaneously??

Thanks!!

I have a X3 F25 2015. It's VIN 0L57897. I want to retrofit NBT EVO id6, 6WB, HUD and surround icam 5DL. Dose anyone have idea?

 

Can anyone tell me anyone who can virginize my F30 6WA and 6WB cluster. I've tried to do it myself by can't seem to get it to work. Is there anyone in the Phila area who I can pay to do it for me.

 

good day
I have 6WB, I updated the car and I can***8217;t update the instrument panel via e -sys. Machine release 03.12. dashboard release 07.16.
How to set the date in VO and i -step?
sorry for my english i am writing through google translator.

Hello Shawn,

Could you please send me the dump of 6WB

Thanks

I updated only the dashboard.
the panel is made 07.16 I tried i-step 16-07 -.....
It turned out i-step ship. dashboards 17-03-501 the time criterion also did not change for me 0312. I looked at the calculation on the HWEL dashboard as it remained black and TAL was correctly calculated.
A very long trial and error method, thanks to the forum I read a lot carefully and everything worked out. Especially a lot of things described shawnsheridan many thanks. It's just that everything is in different sections.
