Anyway I have version 3.22.5 too. What should I do? Install this version using the same PSdZData?
Or do I have to get this new Patch/Token?And what's exactly this?Where Can I find it?

Or sould i get other PSdZData? Where to find?

Again sorry for all the questions

About the last 20 pages of this thread or so talks about it.

I have PM'd you what you need to get 3.22.5 running. You can then use your existing 48.3 PSdZData.

Hey Shawn, need your help again as I'm trying to enable satellite radio on my car.

I changed my SA693 preparation satellite turner to SA655 satellite tuner and VO coded HU_CIC. I see the satellite tuner options on my CIC menu now but it will not do anything.

Would you happen to know what other ECUs I need to VO code? Also, do I need an FSC code for this?

Yes, you need an FSC Code, which costs around $250.

Then you:

Change 693 to 655 in VO
Write VO to car
Import and Activate FSC Code in HU_CIC
VO Code HU_CIC.

Will I need anything to transmit from my keyfob?

I am not sure I understand your question. Comfort Access is the ridges on the door handles, which separate from Fob Access.

How would the car know I'm allowed access?

I am pretty sure the fob is different for CA cars as it has to transmit a constant signal all the time, not just when a key is pushed, so I assume this would have to be bought and programmed for the car.

Is there a possibility in coding the angel eyes to have them on max brightness even when you turn the headlights on ? As opposed to having the angel eyes dim down once the headlights are on. Thanks

anelson524 · 03-11-2013, 11:23 AM

Is there a way to code the auto up feature on the rear windows. Mine has apparently come from the factory without this setting.

New York to SIN is only 18.5 hours

Houston to SIN (via Moscow) is 23.0 hours

As in by pressing the driver side window control, once you pull the lever the window close all the way on it's own.... or is it while locking the door and you want the window to close as well? If it's the latter, try keep the door lock button depressed, all your sunroof and windows should close sequentially.

That is just brutal. I have flown many times to Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, but my longest flight yet was Houston to Beijing via NYC, which was 18 hours, and it damn near killed me. I think another 5 hours in the air would finish the job.

I was lucky, flew 18 hours direct sin to NY, didn't bother me that much, and before I knew it, i arrived... but the connecting train ride from NY to Washington DC did kill me... a supposedly 3 hour train ride turned into a 11 hour hell!

In terms of size, I believe whether with or without comfort access the fob size would be the same, otherwise, BMW will have to make different size accessories (key case) for those with/without CA. Then again, the F series key fob is huge compared to the E-series fob (i knew coz I bought the wrong key fob cover!)

I believe is RFID technology, the sensor could only read X yard/meter outside the door.. if the key is not there, it won't open/lock...

They are identical size wise. I think the CA one has a different battery configuration in it.

anelson524 · 03-12-2013, 08:08 AM

As in when I pull the lever all the way up they close all the way automatically which they currently do not but the front windows do, not the key fob coding.

Hi All,

I've followed the instructions for installing the coding software and have successfully coded some functions today

. However have an issue with trying to get the tailgate to open with the fob when the car is LOCKED. I have an X3 F25.

If my vehicle is locked, the tailgate will NOT open with the fob. You have to unlock first. I've tried holding the button down and clicking more than once. It will not work with the vehicle locked. I really would like to be ale to open the tailgate with the car locked. I also cannot close the tailgate with the fob by just pressing the button for two seconds. I have to keep it pressed for the tailgate to close. If I release the button, the tailgate stops.

If anyone can help with coding for this it would be appreciated. Fr info I do NOT have comfort access which I believe makes a difference but I would have thought this possible with the powered tailgate alone.
