"Profile" mem settings for "sport" mode
I don't have my 335i yet, but I downloaded the 3 series manual.
I'm reading through it and find the section on how to set "profiles", which can then be transmitted or set to your key/fob. It says that one of the options that can be set to auto activate when you use/have your key/fob is the drive select settings. So you can set "sport" mode as a default, stored on 1 of your keys, and when you open and start your car with that key, then it will automatically set drive mode to "sport" every time. Is this correct, or did I misunderstand it? Has anyone tried this? As I said I can't try it cause I don't have my car yet. Too bad it doesn't show ASS as an item to be stored. But, I'll be coding that. |

eg--w/ M adaptive choice 1 -- chassis and steering or choice 2 --chassis, steering and throttle response. I don't have my car either--its sitting on the dock waiting for a ride home. Maybe someone could try it and educate all of us. I'll be watching this thread closely. Did you test drive the M adaptive ? |

Luckily, you can turn this mode change display off through "Settings" -> "Control display" and unchecking "Driving mode info". It's in the manual, starting at the bottom of page 107. |

I'm trying to make it my standard regime when getting in the car to switch to Sport mode. ASS on the other hand does not bother me too much. It has not failed on me once, and normally (with 8AT) the moment I take my foot of the brake the engine is very quick to start. Unlike on me wife's VW Bluemotion which takes way too long to start the engine again, so she ends up disabling it each time. |

They give us an unasked for keyless start, to supposedly avoid having to relieved of that 'insert kek/fog' then push start, only to be replaced by having to push a few more buttons to turn off ASS and put in 'sport' mode. Thanks BMW! I feel so 'COMFORTED'. x |

It was a pretty direct statement and at that point, I was practically signing for the car, so it's not like he had to fib to get me in the car. Hopefully this is true. I mean, I don't have to switch my radio station back to it's last setting everytime I turn the car on...it's just common sense to expect your chosen settings to be remembered! |

It's a real setting in the software, BMW just has to make it the default. |

Most of the things discussed in this thread are simple coding using Carly for BMW Pro App and Adapter.
