It may also require an FSC Code for AppID 131 (83) Imported and Activated.

 

Hello, then I understand you have to buy the code at the BMW because there is no way to do us in esys not?

thanks

 

My F34 does not come with Servotronic either. Apart from FSC and coding, any additional hardware is needed to enable it. I read the old models Exx would require an additional hardware attached to the steering box. Is it still the case in Fxx? thanks in advance for your reply.

 

On the page I have seen realoem to retrofit our F20 Servotronic only thing they sell is a code ref 32106799237. This code gives you access to FSC

any link to the seller of this FSC?

once option 216 added, FSC imported and activated, will there be any display on dashboard to indicate the servotronic is activated?

 

wasn't the 216 HYDRO STEERING-SERVOTRONIC a standard option for F20?

 

has anyone tried this yet?

 

What's the benefit of having servotronic enabled? Variable heaviness? I have an F30 320i and according to vin decoder I don't have 216.
Many people say that all F30s come with variable steering heaviness but I don't think I have this.

Anyone figure this out? Coding is all I need?

Shawn,
If I purchase the FSC codes, will they send me a file or just numbers? Can I use esys to inject the FSC codes?

Thanks

 

I don't know much about EPS.

On my F10, I have EPS. and there is an EPS Module in my SVT, which indicates hardware is needed.

My car does not have Option 216, nor an EPS FSC Code, presumably because EPS is standard on all F10's.

However, I know of these EPS FSC Codes:

EPS - SA216
AC Servotronic EPS X3 (F25) 00830001
AC Servotronic EPS 1 Series, 3 Series (E8x, E9x) 00840001

I have no idea how EPS is handled on an F30.

If an FSC Code is required, and you can actually get it, you can Import and Activate it with E-Sys. You still may need hardware though you do not have.

 

I have EPS FSC on my F30.

On a related note, I got into a new 328i GT loaner today, fully optioned with 18 miles on it. Steering is so loose and much lighter on comfort than my car. I had to put it in sports mode to tighten it up a bit and be closer to my steering feel. I hope my car doesn't turn into this after the software update.

 

Anyone knows how to Import FSC and Activate using E-Sys? What's meaning about AppID ?Thanks!

I read that Servotronic is standard in the US. Then FSC code may not be available in US dealers, right?

I was browsing etk.cc and just found that there's no difference between servotronic steering box and standard one. However the VSS box is different. Maybe all I need is FSC code.

Does anyone know how this FSC code is delivered? Will they just give me numbers? Or a file?

Thanks

 

The FSC Code is a digital file, and it must be Imported and Activated in EPS Module, and then car Coded.

 

I see but how is this file delivered to the customer? Is it a hard copy like a CD or flash drive?

Where and how can I check if I already have this file?

Thanks

 

It is downloadable from BMW Server by dealer. He can copy it to DVD, Flash Drive, or email it to you.

PM me your short VIN (last 7).

 

PM sent.

If I decide to purchase the codes, can I use it if I decide to upgrade to VSS?

 

I presume so, but I do not know with certainty.

 

Anyway to find it out?

 

Ask your dealer.

 

Not a chance. This guys don't even know VSS exists. =/
It's not offered here because we have terrible roads and high steering ratios tend to transfer the imperfections to the steering wheel

 

Well, maybe someone with the knowledge will chime in here.

 

Hope so =)

 

Any luck?

Did someone actually find where to buy the FSC code and did it work to program it?
Hope to hear from someone, because I want to upgrade my F3x with servotronic.

\S

Unfortunately not. =/
I asked the guys from BMW Rio but they said they know absolutely nothing about it.
They said they'd have to ask BMW Brasil but I didn't hear back from them yet.

 

I've bought the FSC for Servotronic on my F20 and imported/activated by E-sys.

 

I know this is 10 years old, but do you recall the steps to import/activate in E-SYS?

 

Where did you buy the FSC code?

simonchs: thanks for the update.
Some questions; where did you buy the code? As my local BMW dealer will not sell me only the code, they want to do the job as well.
And how much did you pay for the code?

Hope to hear from you.

Regards

Yes, there're notable feeling on the steering, much more soft during slow and go stiff during high speed.

 

Great! Gotta get this.

 

I need activation code for E93

I need activation code files for 2011 E93

It must be issued by BMW AG. What does your dealer say about selling you one?
