Should be no problem.

Add 302 to your VO, and VO Code HU_CIC or HU_NBT and FZD ECU's.

Sorry for the potentially dumb question but what is included within 'FDL Coding' that I may want to access?

I've searched the thread and manual and it's no clearer to me!

Everything on the coding cheat sheet is accomplished via FDL Coding. If you want to code your car, you need to be able to FDL Code.

You will in fact need a Patch / Token. Details included in the PM.

OK thanks, in that case what can you achieve from these? "...modify VO, VO Code, Import and Activate FSC Codes, and Flash ECU's without it."

All I want to do is video in motion, USB video and potentially digital speed readout.

  • FDL Code = Manually Code individual parameters of an ECU
  • VO Code = Automatically Code entire ECU based on Vehicle Order (Options)
  • Flash ECU's = Update an ECU firmware with new version (Programming like Dealer does with ISTA/P)
  • Import & Activate FSC Codes - Import & Activate FSC Codes (Enabling Codes) to enable features that require an Enabling Code by BMW (e.g. Sat Radio, BMW Apps, Navigation, Night Vision, etc.)

For what you want to do, you will accomplish via FDL Coding.

Should be no problem.

Add 302 to your VO, and VO Code HU_CIC or HU_NBT and FZD ECU's.
Are you sure about turning on the alarm if it wasnt included? I think the f30 is missing a harness that wasnt installed at the factory if you didn't select it. The e9x were able to have them all added late by the dealer but not the f30. I know my dealer (Adrian) said the alarm wasnt an option to add at the port.

Not trying to be a Debbie downer just don't want to see anyone waste time. Perhaps someone else with more coding knowledge can chime in? I just figured if it was a coding issue I would have been able to add it to my build late..

The OP wrote that the Alarm was "installed after car was built". I take that to mean it is physically installed with all necessary wiring done.

True I misread. I think I misunderstood because my interpretation from my dealer was that you either have it or you don't. It wasnt like the e90s where you could later or at the dealer/VPC/port. In that case that's great news for the OP

Shawn,

i just received token and patch from did 'ZGW_SEARCH' and was able to read my car. When I try to connect in E-Sys (3.22) i get PSDZ Error "Set PSDZ-Root using "C:\ESysData" Failed! [C073] NullPointerException: null". I'm using PSdZData 50.2 lite.

Any thoughts on why I'm getting this?

Also, when I put in my token location in E-Sys (under EST tab) it doesn't seem to keep it there. ie after restart of E-Sys, and I go back to that tab, it's empty.

Thanks for any help you can pass along.

Shawn,

I had previously coded my 2013 335i with E-sys 3.18.4 with great success. I picked my car up today from service and they upgraded my software (MX/TX 003.004.031) which of course blew away my settings. I know my year old version will not work, and I need to obtain a token. Could you please PM with the correct software and instructions for obtaining a token?

Thanks!

I need to connect to your PC and look at it. PM me when you can do a Teamviewer session.

Shawn,

Thanks for the really quick PM and your help. Is there an updated version of the F30 Cheat Sheet? The first page of this thread links to a version from 6-16-2012, does that cover all the currently available modifications?
